It's-a Minecraft! Mario Invades Mojang's Blocky Paradise On Wii U Next Week
When Microsoft announced it was bringing Minecraft to Wii U, the endgame was clear: world (1-1) domination. The master plan goes into effect next week, with the release of the Super Mario Mash-Up Pack.
The free update, which will be out May 17, brings 15 pieces of Super Mario music, item textures, 40 skins, and a pre-made world. Inspiration is pulled from a number of Mario's greatest adventures, including Super Mario World, Super Mario 64, and Super Mario Sunshine.
If you prefer your games on disc, you'll be able to purchase a retail version on June 17 for $29.99. The Super Mario mashup content will be included. If you can't wait to try the game on Wii U, it's also $29.99 via the eShop.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
