Super Mario Run for Android Finally Has A Release Date! 23rd of March

Mar 18, 2017 By

Super Mario Run has been one of the most popularly talked about and played games of recent times. The game released for the iOS in December 2016, and has since been quite popular. It was announced in September of 2016 during the Apple event where the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus were launched. Nintendo had also commented that this game was all set to get Super Mario Run for Android in the days to follow. However no timelines were given then. We now have a confirmed date of the launch – 23rd March.

Super Mario Run Google Play Store 23 March

Super Mario Run for Android was on a pre-registration phase for a long time. For months all the users would see on the Super Mario Run app on the Google Play Store is a green button that says pre-register. Well, we will be seeing that button for just a few more days as Nintendo has officially confirmed via Twitter, the launch date of the game. Super Mario Run for Android will release on the 23rd of March.

In the past Nintendo had initially announced that the game will be releasing for the Android users, and then they had said that it should ideally be out by March. However the date is now set in stone. Super Mario Run for Android is likely to feature the same pricing as the iOS version of the game. The game comes free of cost for the users for the first ten levels. However, beyond that users need to pay a one-time amount of $10, after which there are no in-game purchases to be made and the game is free to play without any extra costs.

Super Mario Run for Android was expected to release a little earlier, however Nintendo wanted to ensure that the game is not hackable (or at least not easily). They had stated that their concern was that once it hits the Android OS, it could face certain security issues that are not usually possible with the iOS devices.

Nintendo Is Back

Oct 20, 2016 By

Nintendo will finally reveal its new console — codenamed NX — at 10AM ET today. It’s been a long and arduous wait for fans, who first caught wind of the company’s Wii U successor in March last year, when late president Satoru Iwata mentioned that Nintendo was at work on “a dedicated game platform with a brand-new concept.” It was a glimmer of hope after the commercial failure of the Wii U, but since then, trade shows, press presentations, and community events have come and gone without concrete details, forcing people to sift through patent applications for hints at what the NX will actually be.

u-027-h-00010-a

It’s been a frustrating process for me, and many others who just want to know what the deal is, but long-time Nintendo gamers will know this dance well. The company has a weird history with its console announcements, historically confirming the existence of new machines months or even years in advance, then dragging their reveals out for as long as possible. It did it with the Wii U, releasing a statement confirming that an HD-capable successor to the Wii existed months before it showed the machine off at E3 2011, a full year before its eventual launch in 2012. It did it with the GameCube, too, finally confirming that the enigmatic machine codenamed “Dolphin” would be squeezed into a colorful plastic case in 2000, ahead of its launch in late 2001.

But this practice was best illustrated by the launch of the Nintendo 64, a drawn-out process that makes the wait for the NX seem almost trivial. Picture the scene: it’s 1994, and Sony’s PlayStation is already on the market, but Nintendo’s own machine is still years off. The company could rush production on its new console, which had been codenamed “Project Reality,” or keep quiet and let Sony take an easy win. Instead, Nintendo took a different approach, selling its new console — then called the “Ultra 64” — with an ad that specifically pointed out that it wasn’t available yet. “You can’t buy this,” the ad exclaimed in bold text, ending with a command to “wait for it.” It was an audacious tactic, and one you’d think gamers wouldn’t appreciate, turning instead to the PlayStation rather than waiting for a pie-in-the-sky console at an unspecified point in the future.

Nintendo 2DS Price Cut To $80 – New Games Introduced:

May 13, 2016 By

Nintendo has been one of the pioneers when it comes to the world of gaming technology and has been one of the oldest names there. The company has been around for several decades now, and has been innovating the markets of gaming technology time and again. The company has been the name behind several innovative consoles, and back when they released the Nintendo 2DS in 2013, it was a big deal in the markets as it offered a diverse low-cost gaming solution.yokai-2ds

The Nintendo 2DS was originally priced in at $130 when it came out. For nearly two years the price remained constant at $130, when in the August of last year, the company slashed it down to $100. However, Nintendo has just introduced yet another price cut for the 2DS, as the Nintendo 2DS is now available in the markets at just $79.99.

What makes the Nintendo 2DS so special is, that even though the next-gen Nintendo 3DS was soon launched, the 2DS was still able to play all the games of that console, but in 2D.

Apart from this price cut, Nintendo has also released new games for the Nintendo 2DS. Style Savvy: Fashion Forward and Disney Magical World 2. Both these games target a younger audience. While Fashion Forward would release in the August of this year, Magical World 2 will be releasing in the month of October.

Magical World 2 is based on Disney’s Frozen, and it will feature Mickey Mouse, Minnie Mouse, Goofy, Elsa, Anna, Olaf, Ariel, Donald Duck and Daisy Duck.

All in all, this is expected to give a major boost to the Nintendo 2DS. Released over 3 years ago, this device has sold over 58.85 million units worldwide (combined with the 3DS). With the Nintendo NX expected to be announced at the E3 2016, this is likely the final push that the Nintendo 2DS is getting from the company before it will be discontinued next year.

However it is also in the news that there is a total of three Wii U games that is selected for the rest of 2016.These three games are-an Olympic sports game :a JRPG so niche even JRPG fans might not look after it, next is a Paper Mario game that is hopefully more Thousand-Year Door than Sticken Star.

However it is expected that the 2017 Zelda will be the only playable Nintendo game at E3 raises louder alarms. Conventionally Ninetendo has used E3 that occurs in June as a chance to express its lineup of holiday games.

Interestingly the Wii U version of the game wills beenjoyable for the first time on the E3 show floor. Additionally it will be the only enjoyable game that Nintendo is going to present at the show to give the users a total submersion.

On the other hands regarding this at certain point in the past few years Nintendo must have cut its losses experiencing the development resources from the staggering Wii U to their upcoming generation called NX which is full of vigor.
