We knew for some time that Super Mario Maker was planned for a September launch, but Nintendo finally shared a specific date during its Digital Event last week. It’s slated for September 11 – only two days before the 30th anniversary of the original Super Mario Bros.

Some may have felt that going with September 13 would have been the smarter move, but Nintendo ultimately ships titles on Fridays these days. That’s pretty much why Super Mario Maker’s September 11 date was ultimately chosen.

As Nintendo representative Julie Gagnon recently explained:

“Nintendo is really respectful of this date, but the thing is that when we launched Super Mario Bros back in 1985, it was September 13th. And, as we have worked with retailers on Friday as a launch day, the date worked out as Friday, September 11th for this year.”
