Super Paper Mario Due in September

Release details for dozens of games for Nintendo's system.

It's been called one of the best games on the Wii but Europeans have had to look on from afar at Super Paper Mario. Not longer.

This week Nintendo finally came clean, revealing that the 2D-slash-3D Mario platform-RPG would be out in the UK on 14 September.

Another delayed game finally getting a UK release is Trauma Center: Second Opinion. The virtual surgery game, which launched with the Wii in the US and Japan last year already, will be out in the UK on 10 August.

Nintendo said this week that Mario's next game, Super Mario Galaxy, would be out in the US in early December. The company hasn't confirmed the date for the UK, but it is expected before the year is over.

DS owners can pull out their markers too. Key dates to circle include 13 July for Elite Beat Agents and 14 October for Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass.
