Super Mario Run has quickly risen to the top of the App Store charts. A few hours after it launched, the game shot up to the seventh top-grossing iPhone app in America, and second in the UK. It was also the top-downloaded app in 62 countries, including the United States.
The latest positioning for Super Mario Run now has it as the top-grossing app in both the United States and the UK. It’s also at the sixth spot in Japan.
Super Mario Run is doing very well for itself thus far. Hopefully it will be able to maintain momentum over the next few weeks.
Koei Tecmo prepared a new set of Attack on Titan: Escape from Certain Death screenshots and details today. This time around, we’re able to learn more about the different gameplay systems. The images also show event scenes. We have the full roundup below, courtesy of Gematsu.
Break Time
– Speak with your partner when it’s safe and titans aren’t around
– Choose what you want to talk about from the range of “topics” you procured during your exploration
– When you enter Break Time and have strong bonds with your partner, you may talk about private things that you wouldn’t normally talk about
– Your partner may come off as cold depending on the player’s choices
Despair
– Your “Despair” rises if you encounter a critical situation or make the wrong choices,
– If your level of Despair rises, you won’t be able to make normal decisions
Time Limit Choices
– Serious situations may limit the amount of time you have to make a choice
– Whether you’re able to make the right choice in a tense situation will be the key to your escape
Tool Screen
– Use this screen to check the tools you found during your exploration
– Find something useful for your escape through careful exploration
Return Alive from Despair with your Partner
– Mikasa appears when you’re in the despair that is the threat of an approaching titan
– Using the blades in her hands, she accurately slices the nape of the titan
– In order to rescue you from the point of death, Hanji implements certain strategies
– When you’re tired from fighting titans, and have come to the point where you’re soaked in their blood and drool, Levi will offer a shoulder to lean on
– It is this moment where the distance between them becomes much closer
– Even in an ominous old castle, Mikasa always appears calm
– Other than escaping, she also seems to be looking for Eren
– Hanji gets strangely excited about titans
– A desperate situation could be the ideal chance for Hanji to meet a titan
Super Mario Run doesn’t take advantage of Apple’s Family Sharing. This is due to the nature of the download, which is an in-app purchase. However, by going through a few steps, it is actually possible to use something similar to Family Sharing so that those who you are close to won’t need to purchase Super Mario Run on their own.
Here’s what you’ll need to do, as pointed out by Gabe3208:
1. First, purchase the game on your device.
2. Then on the iPhone/iPad you want to share the in-app purchase with, go to settings and log out of the app store.
3. Log back into the App Store with the same account that made the in-app purchase. SUPER IMPORTANT: If you don’t don this, you will be charged $9.99 again.
4. Open the Super Mario Run app, and try to purchase the game again. You will get a pop-up asking if you’re sure you want to buy, hit yes, and then another pop-up will appear saying you can download again for free since you’ve already purchased it.
The third step is pretty important here. Since you’re logging in to your account on another device, you’ll probably only want to complete this with people you really know well and trust.
On Wednesday, Nintendo held a special event during Southwest’s flight #2482. All passengers were given a free New 3DS XL plus a voucher to download Super Mario Maker for 3DS game for free on the eShop. Nintendo reps were on hand to help passengers play and create Mario levels, including fan and YouTube celebrity iJustine. Mario was waiting to welcome everyone at the gate as well once the flight ended.
Nintendo says that Wednesday’s flight “was the first leg of a Say Yes to Nintendo 3DS promotion with Southwest Airlines that runs from Dec. 16 through Jan. 14, and is open to U.S. residents who are at least 14 years old.” Prizes will include 3DS hardware and games. There will be “dozens” of people who will receive prizes, but “one lucky Grand Prize winner will be awarded a trip to New York for up to four people, roundtrip air travel on Southwest for four, a four-night hotel stay, plus a personal shopping spree at the Nintendo NY store.” You can visit this page during the promotion period to submit the registration form.
