Whoops! Thanks to a press release for NBCUniversal’s recent upfronts for advertisers, the title for the sequel to The Super Mario Bros. Movie looks to have been revealed as “Super Mario World.”
Super Mario World fits as the sequel title – spoilers – as the post-credit scene of The Super Mario Bros. Movie features Yoshi, who first debuted in the Super Nintendo Game, Super Mario World. It also fits with details when the sequel was announced last year.
