Update: I’m stupid! Nintendo confirmed last week that Mario Pinball Land will be releasing in North America tomorrow. This was included in the “Coming Soon” section of the most recent Nintendo Download report.


You know how these things work. The ESRB rates a classic GBA game for Wii U, and then Nintendo releases the title soon after in North America.

That’s probably what will be happening with Mario Pinball Land. The game just received its ESRB rating for Wii U, likely signaling its launch on the North American eShop tomorrow. We won’t know for sure until the official press release is published, but I’d say it’s pretty likely at this point!
