Super Mario Run is going to be one of the games of the year, and that is something that we are very clear about because it marks the arrival of one of the most famous characters in video games to smartphones, which are definitely the most used devices to play . Now, there is still the question of knowing when it will arrive definitively Super Mario Run to Android.
Promised, but no date
Super Mario Run is a game that was officially announced together with the iPhone 7, the first great adventure of the Nintendo character who later got behind the wheel with the races of Mario Kart Tour for mobile. However, it was not said that it would be an exclusive video game, although it was clear that if it had a leading role in the iPhone 7 event it is because it would have some kind of exclusivity, as it does, since the game has reached iOS, but it is not available on Android yet. When will it reach mobiles and tablets with Google's operating system? We do not know. Yes we know, and we can guarantee that it will come, as Nintendo said so. In fact, they have even announced the reasons why it has not yet reached Android, and it is because of the ease of getting paid content in the application for free.
It is not so easy to get the app or in-app purchases, free on iOS, and that is why they have also launched on iOS. Nintendo has assured that the game will arrive on Android in 2017, but the year has 365 days, so it is not easy to determine when it will arrive.
Super Mario Run, a promotional tool
However, we can use as a real reference the fact that Super Mario has always been a franchise that Nintendo has used for promotion. And he has done the same with the Apple mobile, even to become the protagonist of the iPhone 7 launch event.
So, it would not be surprising if Nintendo wanted to gain prominence by launching the game for Android together with a smartphone. And in that case, what would be the smartphone that they might want to use to promote the game, and at the same time the brand that would want to use the game to promote their mobile? Well, it is clear that the ideal mobile would be the one that will be on the list of the best sellers next year, Samsung Galaxy S8. In turn, the launch date of this mobile is also ideal, because it will arrive in February, and the game would not be long delayed in reaching Android. Also, Samsung Galaxy S8 users are much more likely to pay for apps, so it could be a great strategy for Nintendo. Even so, it will be necessary to see if this is really possible with the passage of time, because the reality today is that there is not a single data with which to affirm when will the new Super Mario Run come to Android.
