Super Mario Galaxy 2 gets trailer and release date

Today’s Nintendo’s Media Summit gave us a better look at probably their most anticipated release this year – Super Mario Galaxy 2. Sure, it’s very much like the previous iteration, but that’s true of any good Mario series. That said, Galaxy 2 will be coming with some new additions, most notably the return of Yoshi and a new drill with which Mario can destroy precious interstellar ecosystems. Lastly, Nintendo also provided us with a release date for North America – May 23rd. Thankfully, not to far away.
