French gaming site GameBlog had an interview with Nintendo-guru Shigeru Miyamoto, and in it they presented him a series of Mario figurines, after which Miyamoto had something to say about the new Mario 3DS game.

“I promise to do everything to deliver your new Mario this year!”

While this is hardly confirmation of the game coming (remember that Skyward Sword was supposed to come out last year), it’s fairly good news considering it means that there is a very fantastic 3DS line-up for this year, including Ocarina of Time, Star Fox 64, Mario Kart, and Mario 3DS! Hopefully Miyamoto’s words hold true…
