The wait is finally over as Nintendo officially announced a release date for their popular mobile title, Super Mario Run, for Android. In a tweet made from Nintendo America, the company confirmed that the game will be available to Android users on March 23. This is in line with Nintendo’s previous announcement that the game would hit the Google Play store sometime in March.
Previously, Super Mario Run was exclusive to Apple devices and ranked in over $53 million in revenue. It was launched in December in 151 countries, and has been downloaded 78 million times. However, the mobile title didn’t manage to reach the mega status the company initially hoped.
Although the game is free to download, but to play beyond the first three levels, one must pay a one-time $10 (or approx Rs 670) fee. Evidently, a little over 5 per cent of Super Mario Run users have paid the price to unlock the full game. This is mainly due to its $10 price, if we consider the price of other most popular games from Google Play or App stores.
