The first Mario game for iOS was announced earlier today. While Super Mario Run isn’t launching on iOS till December, you can watch the first footage from the game now. This trailer was tweeted by Apple’s App Store Twitter account and gives a good idea of what the game will be like. Do you like what you see? Tell us below.
It’s-a you, Mario! 😮😍
Take a closer look at #SuperMarioRun in action. https://t.co/RUoFlEfsyP pic.twitter.com/4d0Ul4FZvz— App Store (@AppStore) September 7, 2016
It looks decent.
Too bad it’s not on superior hardware such as androids har yar har.
>This fanboy delusion
I’m joking dude =_=
Oh right sorry. poe’s law and that. :)
my thoughts exactly and why not on android and windows phones?
It looks like garbage
this looks like garbage

it looks better than what the Commander said about it (stupid robot, what does he know
lol

Sing it brother!
||Little one, you’d probably die in seconds by overheating because of how much I know about Nintendo and everything else that is relevant…||
When a did Mario learn parkour? I’ll admit, he is pretty good at rolling over those goombas and doing all of his little flips. But he still can’t jump high. He’ll never beat me on a that. :D
YES. FINALLY.
Yess!! Finally a Luigi hello!!
I can see this as eshop only on 3DS next year
For double the price because that’s how Nintendo treats its supporters
Garbage concept, garbage tired aesthetics.
I’m too tired for this shit.
Whilst what you said isn’t wrong, you should know that reusing assets means that they barely put any time into this.
It’s irrelevant.
I’m not talking about wasting money, I’m talking about being creatively bankrupt.
I wasn’t talking about it either.
The fact of the matter is, there was no effort put into this and that can be a good or bad thing depending on your point of view. It’s nothing to them; the only new thing in this game is a couple of animations.
If people will pay money for this, then let them play their garbage tapping games. Nintendo has basically made it clear that they will not put a full game on smartphone (at least yet).
“And that can be a good or a bad thing depending on your point of view”
If you can’t discern my point of view, what are you even trying to say?
“Nintendo has basically made it clear that they will not put a full game on smartphone”
Yeah, that’s kind of the fucking problem I have. They keep half-assing everything they do.
I meant to expand on that.
It’s not an inherent issue that they aren’t taking up their time with the stuff unrelated to the next console. I don’t think cash-grabs are a problem.
“They keep half-assing everything they do”
That’s a bit of a stretch, isn’t it? When was the last time you saw them put so much effort into a single game (Breath of the Wild)? I too am upset at the recent blunders, but those aren’t due to a lack of effort.
I’d argue they are, especially on the Wii U side of things. I’m not just talking about software, but about things like MyNintendo and the way they’ve handled the NX’s unveiling. That’s a conversation for another time, though.
||I’m finding it illogical that you put so much emotions towards civilian nonsense…||
I find NSMB aesthetics offensive no matter the platform.
||Logical, the aesthetics have always been civilian enticement…||
Then think of it this way: it’s infuriating to see Nintendo aiming for the lowest common denominator so blatantly.
||True, however, you have to take a new common denominator that in recent times have started to rise, namely the new generation of scientists that created Splatoon and now Breath of the Wild…||
||That ensures that The First Order will never allow the civilians to overthrow the new division of High Command’s elite forces…||
I really hope you’re right in that regard, because I’m feeling the hand of the Old Guard getting in the way of creativity more stronly each day. It’s less about Mario Run, more about everything put together.
||Meanwhile, enjoy yourself with this prime example of an Xbot’s so called intelligence…||

Oh, I stumbled upon that earlier. That’s hilarious
So it’s an Apple Exclusive? Also, you know damned well there will be Paid content.
“After $40 of paid content, you will be playing the full version of Super Mario Brothers 2!… Again!! Hahaha”
It’s a timed exclusive as Nintendo has already confirmed that it’s coming to Android in the near future and yes there should be a price tag considering how this game looks better than a vast majority of the mobile games that are out there. I’m not really big on mobile games but I’m very interested in this
Ah cool. Thanks. I’ll check it out on Android when it arrives then! (but not paying one more cent for a game I’ve bough countless times! :] )
They said in the Apple event that you will just pay for it a once and there won’t be in game purchases.
So then why do I see “includes in-app purchases”? Also, I checked the event and I don’t remember them saying that you don’t have to pay again (unless I missed it).
I thought I heard it, but could be wrong. I thought he said something about how he wanted it to be good for all ages so they would make just one purchase to buy the game. I may have taken it out of context though.
“I thought he said something about how he wanted it to be good for all ages so they would make just one purchase to buy the game.”
He did say that.
That got my hopes up that there were no in app purchases. But I guess that doesn’t confirm it…
Personally, I see it as DLC then anything else. Of course, it remains to be seen, but until I see otherwise, I’m just going to assume that that’s what we’re going to see.
I believe you can download the game for free (like a demo) and then you can choose to make a one time in app purchase to unlock the full game.
is that all you do? speed run levels with zero difficulty, no challange and sorry platforming?
How do you know there’s zero difficulty?
how many different inputs can this game get? one.
Doesn’t mean it can’t be hard. Ever play Rayman Fiesta Run? There aren’t a lot of inputs for that game either, but damn, you have to be precise about when you tap that screen.
Now, for a platformer, you might have concerns about the game’s DEPTH, and for that I can’t really reassure you. Rayman iOS games are fun, but they’re no substitute for their console equivalents long-term.
well from what they showed… i mean… it looks like it auto runs and you just tap the screen to jump…hence the question.. is this it? if theres more going on, then they should have showcased it cause this is not appealing to me. but if thats what people are into
If this is anything like what my wife played years ago where she played a unicorn or whatever that ran on it’s own where she had to either hit or hold down a single key herself to make it jump while also avoiding hazards, no, this game will not be as easy as it sounds.
Geez, they will be using the New series’ art direction and mechanics — that’s the WORST decision they could have had as NSMB and NSMBU are pale and uninspired renditions of what 2D Mario games used to be.
Well it is a mobile game and they’re trying to attract new and seasoned gamers with this title. It’s going sell big regardless of the backlash it’s getting
Use literally any other artstyle, though
I get that it’s easier and flashier for the casuals to just paste NSMB onto everything, but for the love of Yamauchi’s ghost, mix things up a little bit.
I agree that it would have been nice to rework the “2D” Mario aesthetic, but didn’t Miyamoto say that they will end it soon or with the next console iteration anyway, so this is likely the last hurrah for this art style. If the game play has been altered, which appears to be the case with the three types of gameplay and the rolling and what not we see, then that will be welcomed for the first dip in to mobile for Mario.
I’m not against the move, Paid — truth be told, I think it’s a great approach to increase Nintendo’s mindshare. What I’m against is the art direction of the game: I just hate the New series.
But… That’s me.
||No you’re not, besides, the Mobile Infantry’s sole purpose however, is to gather resources exclusively, that’s all…||
wrong, Its stomedy
I’m a totally honest dude. I’ll probably waste time playing this crap if it comes to Android. And I’ll probably enjoy it.
😲
you know the game is not bad but don’t you guys think this is the same thing from new super mario bros series?.
That shows how shallow the New series is: two home console titles whose experience can be 100% replicated on smartphones.
you could be right about that
Pretty much as I expected a Mario Mobile game to look.
I have no complaints, it quite literally is what it should be if it’s ok mobile.
On mobile**
It sounds like investors, at least, believe this will be successful.
I don’t know how to feel about this. By itself, it’s absolutely not a bad thing. Mario is very well represented on the real consoles, so I’m not about to get all pissed off that he’s on mobile, too. Heck, I might even buy this if the price is right.
The problem is, what will Nintendo’s reaction be if this succeeds? Will the revenue embolden them to take risks and develop more expensive games? Or will they use mobile as a crutch and divert their resources toward cheap little iOS games that guarantee them quick cash?
Best case scenario is that, through exposure and success, Nintendo becomes more relevant to gamers in general, not just diehard fans, and once again gets taken seriously by the community as a whole. Worst case scenario is that Nintendo goes full Konami and drops support for major releases in favor of popcorn games like this. Two very different outcomes, obviously, so for a Nintendo fan, this news should be a bit nerve-wracking.
Of course, there may also be no long-term effects whatsoever; could be a one-and-done situation. We’ll see.
I look at this as more of a cheap way to get into the Apple conference and thus bringing more media and consumer attention for their mainline games and systems. I mean this game could not have been more than 3-6 guys working 6-18 months (and that’s stretching it). I doubt Nintendo would start completely relying on other systems and their market performance for their whole line up though. Now if only they could reveal the NX to get the benefits from this partnership.
wonder/hope if they will they will add this mechanic to Mario Maker, before anyone slates me yes I know auto scroll is kind of similar but not the same plus I imagine it would be any easy update that could be added without much issue. Also if you could access Runner style levels made on the Wii U via the iOS game it may help shift a few more wii u’s over Christmas.
Does anyone else have a problem with IOS having just as many Nintendo made games as the Wii U this Christmas season?
This was bound to happen at one point or another. It actually looks alright imo.
The “New” artstyle? Really!? I know this is a mobile game so they don’t want to put much effort into it but they couldn’t have used Super Mario World’s artstyle converted into 3D? Wait, no. Scratch that. I don’t want that beloved artstyle tied to a casual game. Anyway, if I was ever going to get this game by any chance on a tablet or smartphone, I definitely won’t now because that trailer was only around 30 seconds long & I’m already bored and tired of hearing about this mobile game.
With that said, maybe them using the “New” artstyle shouldn’t make us angry but happy that they will use what is already considered a shallow Mario series to begin with for this game. This could be the proverbial blessing in disguise.
Aaaannndd it looks exactly the same as the last hundred Mario games. I love Nintendo, but they really need to milking Mario and Pokemon.
I don’t know which is more funny, the Android users feeling like they are left out or people calling this a Sonic Runners clone?
}{ This would appear to be an insult to the pudgy plumber’s legacy… But what should I expect from such an inferior platform }{
Eh, it looks alright. Pretty much exactly what you’d expect from this kind of game but if they release it on Android maybe I’ll try it out for my love of Mario.
