In the latest issue of Next-Gen, Peter Main offers a strange answer to the question about when we'll see Mario ...

Subscribers should be receiving their issues in no time, and some interesting news lies therein ...

In an interview about GameCube with the one and only PETERMAINCO, Next-Gen asks a question, and gets one of Nintendo's patented "non-answers." But that response is very telling when you read between the lines.

Next-Gen: Does that mean that we'll see Mario introduced at Spaceworld?

PETERMAINCO: I can't talk about it today, but will we unveil something that shows the interface between Game Boy Advance and GameCube? Yes, we will, but I can't go beyond that.

Begyerpardon? The question was about the Mario GCN title, and we get a GBA response? Main may have the strange inability to pronounce "console" correctly, but I'm sure his hearing is intact.

Much like similar answers we've gotten from Nintendo when asked point blank questions, the answer seems to have nothing to do with the actual question. Is this a hint towards future plans, or a simple mistake? Only time will tell.
