Looking to go hands-on with New Super Mario Bros. 2? You better camp out your local GameStop as soon as August gets here. Nintendo has confirmed that in-store demo kiosks will have the game up-and-running in early August. Check out this link to find a kiosk near you.

They should honestly have it on the EShop as a demo for download.. For a title being the #1 full game download, the demo really should be in the shop. How can Nintendo not see the big opportunity
Eh it's "New Super Mario bros.", no need to demo it.
@GolfDude
Yeah, I do agree with that.
Knowing Nintendo, the number of uses for the demo would probably be 3 since this is Mario were taking about here.
@Nintendude92
Using that logic there is no need to put it on demo kiosks either.
They obviously made a demo for the kiosks so thy should release it on the eShop as well. There are many people that are on the fence about this game because it is so similar to the previous NSMB. A demo of the new features may just very well push people over the edge of indecision and make them purchase.
Also, by putting out a demo of a downloadable game, you make it that much easier for people to buy the game. The demo contains the full game code. When the demo completes you get a screen that pops up with a purchase button. At that time the person is having a great time and is hooked on the game and all they have to do to continue to play is press the "purchase" button.
This is how demos on other gaming consoles and PC's have successfully worked for years. Time for Nintendo to learn what everyone else already knows.
@GolfDude This honestly the demo already exists so putting on the eshop wouldn't be hard
I doubt any of Nintendo's bigger games [Mario, Zelda, Pokemon] will ever get Game Demo's on the likes of the 3DS and Wii U eStores, tbh.
Whatever happened to putting in demo units months in advance of release? Putting it in 2 weeks before release is pointless IMO.
