According to a report on GameDrift.com, Nintendo has decided to push the release of Mario Galaxy on the Wii back from its spring release to some time in the winter. The information is said to come from an anonymous Nintendo rep.

The same rep also revealed that Metroid Prime 3: Corruption will be released between April and June and will be playable over the internet.

The delay of Nintendo’s biggest titles is a rumour that won’t go away and it seems entirely possible for Super Mario Galaxy to slip to a winter release. Late last year another anonymous source claimed that three of Nintendo’s biggest titles – Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Zelda: Phantom Hourglass – would not be released until Christmas 2007.
