Director's Notes (Marioguy1 (talk))

Hey guys! Welcome to a special issue of the Pipe Plaza!

Not a lot of sections this month, both ralphfan and RAP couldn't send in their sections so we're going to have a shorter issue. But that doesn't mean it'll be lest content!

Remember, we still have some spots open to sign up for and if you haven't read my Pipe Plaza page yet, then be sure to do that!

But now I'll leave you to read on!

Mario Calendar (Paper Yoshi (talk))

Hello, 'Shroomers, and welcome to the official Anniversary Issue! This is Paper Yoshi, the new writer for Mario Calendar, and I'm here to show you the Mario games released in September.

And that's all for this pretty long list! If you have any suggestions for the section's layout, feel free to PM me in the Mario Wiki Forums.

Upcoming Games (Paper Yoshi (talk))

Hello once again, readers, and welcome to this month's Upcoming Games!

First of all, I'd like to thank everyone who voted for this section in the Mario Awards. Although others have written it before, I truly believe most of the users and guests considered the latest issues, which were written by me, before voting. I really appreciate feedback, especially positive one, and it compels me to keep writing this section for as long as I can.

I'd also like to thank the Core Staff for awarding me the Section of the Month prize. I always try to do my best when writing for The 'Shroom (within my limit, be it lack of news or lack of time), and I'm glad my effort has been recognized.

However, this past month hasn't actually helped me with the news. That'll make the September Issue of UG (hey, look, I made an abbreviation for it!) short compared to previous issues.

The Day Early Adopters Were Rewarded for Their Loyalty

Those who paid the full US$250 for a brand new Nintendo 3DS finally got their well-deserved reward, after waiting for some 20 days: free games! On September 1st, Nintendo released 10 NES titles for eligible 3DS owners registered in the Ambassador Program. Five of those games are from the Mario series: Super Mario Bros., Donkey Kong Jr., Wrecking Crew, NES Open Tournament Golf and Yoshi.

Nintendo is set to release said titles for the general public on October 1st. This update will bring improvements for Ambassador-downloaded games as well, such as two-player support.

Updated Release Dates

  • NES games (paid versions): October 1st, 2011
  • GBA games (Ambassador versions): 2011

And that's all for September! I hope to be back here in October with more news! See you then!

"Stay tuned to Upcoming Games for news on the games you'll be playing soon!"

Tip of the Month (Marioguy1 (talk))

Hey guys! MG1 here filling in for the Tip of the Month this month! So have a tip!

Having fun with your friends is a great thing, it's always a good idea to help the community and have fun while doing it. But constantly posting on your friends' talk pages can be distracting to other editors. Remember that there are alternative ways to talk to them, like the chatroom and the forum!

Now I hope you like the special issue!
