But Luigi's Mansion delayed to 2013

Nintendo announces release dates for Paper Mario: Sticker Star and Professor Layton Miracle Mask

Nintendo started off the week by announcing the North American release dates for some of its most highly anticipated 3DS titles.

Paper Mario: Sticker Star - the upcoming turn-based RPG - will be available on November 11th.

For those who love puzzles, masks, and top hats, Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask will make its way to the 3DS on October 28th.

Rounding out the announcement were North American release dates for Style Savvy: Trendsetters (October 22nd), Art Academy: Lessons for Everyone! (October 1st), and Crosswords Plus (also October 1st).

These dates came alongside the announcement that Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon will miss its projected "holiday 2012" release window.

While no reason was provided, Nintendo announced that Dark Moon will be available in the "first half of 2013" for the Americas, but did not clarify if Europe and other regions would encounter a similar delay.

Indeed, Nintendo kept pretty mum on Europe in general.

We will keep you updated with European release dates for this crop of excellent 3DS titles as soon as they are made available.
