Nintendo isn’t using any random or in-house engine for the creation of Super Mario Run. Instead, the company went with a well-known tool. As it turns out, Super Mario Run is being made with Unity.
The engine’s official Twitter account shared the news:
We are thrilled that the legendary creators @NintendoAmerica are bringing Mario to mobile for the first time, and it's #madewithunity pic.twitter.com/iN7a2Ptee5

Rumor: Nintendo to end Wii U production on Friday
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Wii U | 127 Comments
Eurogamer is reporting that Nintendo will be ending production of the Wii U in just a matter of days. If the site is spot on, the production line will close on Friday following the final deadline for orders passed yesterday. That information apparently comes from “multiple sources” speaking with Eurogamer.
Nikkei claimed earlier in the year that Wii U production would cease by the end of 2016. However, Nintendo quickly denied any such plans.
Prior to today, a rumor indicated that European retailers would no longer be able to place orders for Wii U after October 1.
