These aren’t real ads – they’re made by Nintendo of Europe to promote New Super Mario Bros. 2. That doesn’t make them any less neat, however!

You can find another batch here.

Karateka was originally released in 1984. It was made by Prince of Persia creator Jordan Mechner.

Earlier this year, it was revealed that the rhythm-fighting game would be seeing a remake. It now appears that the project is slated for the Wii U – at least that’s what the ESRB says.

The ratings board rated Karateka for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, PC, and iOS. Assuming the ESRB is accurate, it’s also on the way to Nintendo’s new console. An official announcement hasn’t been made yet, so let’s hope this isn’t a screw-up!

Update: Make that this Thursday! Two Tribes said “next” in one tweet and “this” in another. Surely it’s the latter…

The Toki Tori ESRB listing was indeed a confirmation that the game would soon be hitting the North American eShop. Developer Two Tribes has gone ahead and said that it will be available on the store next Thursday. Pricing has not yet been officially set.
