Nintendo has revealed that Super Mario Sunshine will be released in Japan on the 19th July, so if any of you Cube owners can't wait for the US release on 26th August, or the unconfirmed UK release date of the game, then this looks to be the ticket. The game, which we refuse to shorten to SMS, will be known simply as Mario Sunshine in Japan, where the relative 'Super'-ness of the game is not considered relevant to brand recognition. The game will retail for 6,800 yen (£35 / €58) and IGN speculates that the game will be fully playable at this year's E3. Related Feature - Cube gets new toys
