Reader zverg writes us saying that the buy-it-all site Amazon.com recently sent him an email notification as to when he could expect his preordered New Super Mario Bros. game to arrive. This date was a disasterous June 12th to ship and June 14th to arrive. The game's official site still shows a release of May 15th. So given the rollercoaster release scheduling this title has gone through, can we expect it to be pushed back again? We sure hope not.
New Super Mario Bros redelayed?

(Page 1)2. Amazon has been total crap lately with ship dates. I had a friend who got an email two weeks ago that said a lens she ordered from them would not arrive until May 26th (the lens was readily available in stores). She got that lens today. On the same order they told her the camera would not arrive for 6 weeks, it came 3 days later. I put no stock in those estimates.

5. I see everyone jumped on the Amazon don't know crap comment before I even got here so I'll just say nice shot of Captain Lou playing Mario.
That show was so cheesy. The cartoon portion was alright though.

7. awesome pic. I'm surprised no one else sent in this tip. Wasn't it also Amazon that updated their system to say Meteos was discontinued (maybe it is, I haven't looked back at that story for updates yet). Though I don't typically trust Amazon.com for release date information, presumably they had some reason to change the date they had in their system.

1. Everyone is talking about a NSMB and DS Lite Bundle pack. A June release might be a more "realistic" date if the bundle rumor is true, which calls for a delay in the game. I'm just specualting this though.
