Super Paper Mario heading to Wii?

IGN editor-in-chief Matt Casamassina has strongly hinted (read: practically confirmed) that the upcoming GCN title, Super Paper Mario, will be heading to the Wii instead. The hint comes from an answer to the mailbag feature, which allows fans to write...

You can read the part of the mailbag in question inside. A question posed to Matt regarding SPM moving from the GCN to the Wii was answered as such:

How should I write this? Have to be vague, you know? Let me just say that yes, Paper Mario will be headed to Wii and not GameCube. Now read between the lines, damn you! Wait. That was a terrible hint! All right, that’s it for today.

Pretty strong confirmation from someone in the know that Super Paper Mario will released on the Wii rather than the Cube. With Zelda being released on the Wii and now this, it’s becoming clear that we should pack up the Cube in preparation for the imminent Wii release.

Please be advised, however, that this is by no means official.

First gaming experiences were with my older brother playing Sonic the Hedgehog on the Sega Master System and Sega Mega Drive. I was about 12 years old when the PS1 and the N64 were just about to be released, and I wanted to get a PS1 based on my experience playing some demo PS1 games at a Video Games Heaven store. On the day we came to lay buy the PS1, they had demo N64 consoles set up in the middle of the shopping centre and we naturally took some time to sample the goods. Dad, who barely played games, decided that the N64 would be a better console and I have never looked back since then. Don't get the time to play games as much as I did when I was younger, though I still enjoy nothing more than sitting back on the couch and being absorbed into a totally different world.
