Super Mario Run

Unlike Pokemon GO, Super Mario Run isn’t entirely free-to-play. You’re able to play a bit of the game before you pay $10 to unlock everything it has to offer. Having said that, a big question people have wondered about is how Super Mario Run will be received, and how well it will sell.

In America, it’s currently the seventh top-grossing iPhone app (Pokemon GO is at the fifth spot in case you’re curious). And in the UK, the title is #2, just behind Pokemon GO. Super Mario Run is off to a strong start – at least so far.

AppleInsider’s article indicates that data usage will vary depending how you play. The site sadly doesn’t provide any specifics. Could the mode you’re playing in have an impact?
