Nintendo opened the official teaser site for New Super Mario Bros. U yesterday. The page contained a tidbit stating that the game would run in 1080p. Unfortunately, it seems as though that may have been a mistake.

The site has since been updated with the following:

“Experience Mario like never before… in high definition, only on the Wii U console!”

If I were a guessing man, I would indeed say that the original message was an error. You’ll be able to see Mario in HD, but probably only in 720p.
