Users will need a persistent internet connection to play Nintendo's upcoming mobile title Super Mario Run, it has been revealed.
Princess Peach. Beloved royalty of the Mushroom Kingdom, and the constant damsel in distress that sets the tone for most Super Mario games. However, there is a darkness in this one, and she is not all smiles, pink hearts, and expensive parasols. No, no. She is not quite what she seems.
Many immediately found the negativity of Nintendo's approach to mobile gaming, but The Never Yak thinks that the move is actually a positive one for both Nintendo and gaming in general.
I really liked Mario Run's model. Pay once, unlock everything.
Unfortunately, people prefer to be whales, so Nintendo saw real money lies in microtransactions and gacha mechanics. So now I feel less and less excited for each new mobile game they announce.
Nintendo was too protective of the Mario brand to top mobile revenue charts with Super Mario Run, so it's trying to change that with Dr. Mario World and Mario Kart Tour. But is it working?
So it won't be good for mobile gaming??? Way to screw the customer Nintendo.
Ouch. First charging for a mobile game then online only? Welp, my answer is still no...I'll wait for a proper Mario game.
Don't all phone games have this? Or at least the vast majority of ones with microtransactions? Not defending it, but it's nothing new.
but...b.. but Nintendo is great it cares for its fan base and it cares of this gaming industry right right people ?? LOL!
This wont prevent cheating Nintendo lol
