years, Bowser finally wised up and kidnapped Mario instead. Now it's Peach to

system, players take on the role of Cress, a young swordsman who must set out
on a fantastic quest when his village is destroyed in mysterious
circumstances.


No mention of Zelda...
 
Why would there be mention of Zelda in a Q1 release date press release?

It's supposed to hit Q2, anyway.
 
Ooh, finally a solid date for Super Princess Peach in the US. Interesting to see that they are finally pursuing a US release of Chibi-Robo, and... hah! Drill Dozer! Love what I've played of that one, it's like a new-school game designed with NES gameplay concepts, but in a good way. (Generally your moveset is limited, so a lot of puzzles and areas are designed around you using your limited moveset in different and clever ways.) Too bad they had to change the name from "Screw Breaker" in the US, for obvious reasons.
 
Blah, after an awesome Christmas no great DS releases until March 20. Unless Princess Peach is really spectacular?

Peach IS really spectacular. From what I hear/see it is a fantastic platformer.
