Nintendo Dream (one of Japan's most popular Nintendo magazines) has revealed that the premier Mario Sunshine commercial will air for Japanese audiences on June 29th. The catchphrase promoting the latest adventures of the portly-plumber will be ''The best adventure of Super Mario will be realised on the GameCube." Not nearly as controversial as Nintendo's catchphrase for its last spanktastic blockbuster - remember the line ''Get the girl. Or play like one''? That was the catchphrase used on the Zelda: OOT commercial and caused an uproar among feminist campaigners.

Mario Sunshine launches in Japan on July 19 and in the US on August 26. An European release is expected sometime in October.
