Any chances Super Mario World and Super Mario 2/3 will be released for the DS?

Those are some of the top games Nintendo created, and their GBA adaptations were amazing. :)

Now, since I recently purchased the DSi and I am unable to play them, due to the lack of GBA slot, are there any plans for an upcoming Vintage Mario game?

Perhaps Super Mario 1-3 and World combined in one DS game? It would be awesome, not to mention it would sell a lot.

After the VC versions of these games, I doubt Nintendo will release them again this generation . . . especially since all those games were released to the GBA and are still compatible with about 50% of the DSs out there.

I should thank Nintendo for removing the GBA slot on the most expensive DS version then. Epic fail...

Sorry, but unless they make a VC channel on the DSi ( Which would make up for the lost GBA slot ), you'll have to play them on your GBA if you want them portable.
