As if the throwback fun of the Mini NES Classic was not enough, Nintendo is looking break into the mobile gaming world on smartphones and tablets in a really big way,  with their most beloved character Mario on December 15th with ‘Super Mario Run ‘ through the iPhone and iPad. The Android version of the game will come in 2017.

According to 411Mania, the anticipated game will be available for free so players can try it out in three different-modes, and a one-time only payment of $9.99 for unlimited access. Wired is reporting that the Nintendo plans for users of the game to never have to make anymore in-game purchases like you might see on mobile games like ‘Angry Birds’.

The wait is almost over for a Super Mario game that can be played on mobile devices. Developed under the direction of Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto, Super Mario Run brings a new take on the series’ beloved action-platforming gameplay to iPhone and iPad for the first time.” said Nintendo of America Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Doug Bowser in a statement.
