Coming up

A new piece of artwork has surfaced online showing one of the suits heading to Super Mario 3D Land: the boomerang.

While Nintendo hasn't officially released any video or details of the suit, it's not hard to figure out anyway: Mario throws a boomerang. It comes back. Pretty simple.

The Boomerang Bro enemies appear in Super Mario 3D Land, as does a boomerang-wielding female counterpart to Super Mario Bros. 3 mini-boss Boom Boom, so it certainly looks like Nintendo is banking on Tanooki tails and boomerangs for Mario's first true 3D escapades.

We'll have more details as they're confirmed.
