The original Super Mario Bros. was first released in 1985. This is meaningful to you because it would make 2010 the 25th anniversary of the series, and that has apparently compelled Nintendo to celebrate by readying a revival of Super Mario All-Stars for the Wii...at least in Japan.

Andriasang reports that Nintendo held a retailer briefing in Japan recently, with news leaking out that they plan to release "Super Mario Collection Special Pack" on the Wii on October 21. Presumably this will include the same compellation of Mario games -- 1, 2, 3, and "Lost Levels" -- as Super Mario All-Stars did for the SNES, which was, indeed, originally called Super Mario Collection in Japan. But the "Special Pack" part refers to a bonus item called "Super Mario History 1985 - 2010." This includes a booklet covering the history of the Mario series over the past 25 years with never-before-seen development material, and a soundtrack CD with music from the series spanning from the first game all the way up to Super Mario Galaxy 2.

Keep in mind Nintendo hasn't actually confirmed this themselves yet, but the leaks from retailers supposedly involved in the briefing say Super Mario Collection Special Pack will sell in Japan for ¥2,500 -- which is just about a reasonable $30. There's no indication whether Nintendo also plans to release the same collection in North America, but let's keep our fingers crossed.
