2011 is a very special year for Mario and Sonic!

This year is the 30th Anniversary of Mario, and the 20th Anniversary of Sonic - how cool is that?!

I think we can expect some very special Mario and Sonic games and events to celebrate these milestones as the year progresses. I will report on what's happening as soon as I know anything worth writing about, rest assured!

Don't forget to check out my MarioSonicGames.com website for loads of free Mario and Sonic games that you can play directly in your web browser.

Paper Mario World 2 is a hit game!

I wasn't sure it would be a hit because it took so long to develop, but it turns out my new Paper Mario World 2 Flash online game is proving to be very popular, and it has been copied into many other game sites from my MarioSonicGames.com site. Hoorah!

If you're a true Mario fan you'll know that a new official Paper Mario game, with the current working title of "Paper Mario 3DS" (for the new Nintendo 3DS handheld console), is going to be released at some point this year, hopefully before the summer. So my "Paper Mario World 2" game can be a nice little "sampler" while we're all waiting for the official game to be released! :-)

Happy New Year for 2011!

All the very best to you for this coming year, wherever in the world you are!
