Nintendo Announces Super Mario Run for iOS

Great news for game lovers! It would be understandable if some gamers are a little bummed by this, but judging from what we saw in Super Mario Run, it does look like a fun game so it’s not exactly a complete loss. For those who were young in the late 80’s and 90’s, it is something more than a game. In any case, it won’t stop us from dreaming about playing games like the Legend of Zelda in VR someday. However, the mission of saving the princess and collecting coins was more important than a good night’s rest. “I want everyone around the world to enjoy Mario, and they’ll be able to enjoy it on iOS first”. It will initially be released exclusively on Apple’s App Store in December for iPhone and iPad, with it following at a later date on Android.

Super Mario Run will be free to download, with “some content being available for free” and “additional content available to purchase”.

“Super Mario Run” for iPhone is the first ever Mario mobile game, and it will come exclusively to iOS, Forbes reported. The character jumps with just a tap anywhere on the screen. Mario is constantly running to the right to the right.

These two games were announced earlier this year and were scheduled for a release this fall. Time will still be a driving factor in the game as players will race against the clock.
