Since you don't really control Mario I don't think it is considered part of the 'core' series. More of a spin-off.

I was just on gamefaqs site and it says the date of release is 11/15. I thought it was getting released on the 11th?

Yeah, for the last year or so, Nintendo's major releases have had Sunday street-dates. Which means that you can probably find it a few days earlier at local independent stores.

In anticipation of the new game, lets go way back to 1988:

I love how the beanstalk in 3-1 after the hammer brothers is somehow a way to get past the hammer brother
