Paper Mario heads to the Nintendo DS

According to a new story in the latest Coro Coro comics, Paper Mario is heading to the Nintendo DS. The game will be a ported remake of the Nintendo 64 game and will be available in July. While a portable Paper Mario would never be frowned upon, a port of a game that is also available on the Virtual Console is a strange decision by Nintendo. (Insert witty jab about how Super Paper Mario was delayed in Australia, and how we hope this game doesnt suffer the same fate here)
