A few new dates for a handful of games have emerged today from the Big N, with the official site posting a few new schedules much to the glee of the Wii's new legion of fans.

First up is Mario Party 8 - the first version in the series for the Wii - which will be delivered on March 5th. Elsewhere, Wii Play will hit town on February 12th, complimenting this month's Wario Ware: Smooth Moves' debut on the ambitious new console.

The biggest news however, as reported by the Nintendowiifanboy.com blog, is word that Super Paper Mario (formerly a Cube title) is now on the way to the Wii and should be out in April - that's according to Nintendo Power magazine. The new title will use the retro-style controller, and will cunningly move between 2D and 3D views during play.
