Nintendo appeared at Apple’s conference in September to announce Super Mario Run. The new mobile game will debut first on iOS in December.

When the game was revealed, Apple put some special functionality on iTunes. Users have been able to receive a notification when Super Mario Run is made available. According to Apple CEO Tim Cook, 20 million users have done this so far.

We also have a couple of other random notes from Cook’s visit to Nintendo. The company said that he stopped by for an hour, and also met with president Tatsumi Kimishima.

Cook shared the photo on Twitter a short while ago:

Who would have thought we’d be seeing a photo like this a few years ago?

With Super Mario Run, Nintendo will be attempting to attract players who aren’t entirely experienced with Mario titles or games as a whole. However, that doesn’t mean it’ll be devoid of challenge for longtime fans.

Nintendo developer Shigeru Miyamoto wouldn’t divulge what we can expect from Super Mario Run’s later levels. He did say, however, that Mario fans won’t have to worry about easily making it to the end.

Miyamoto teased:

“A big point with this game is, ‘How can we make this a game that people who aren’t good at games can play the game and enjoy it?’ But also at the same time, we’ve been making Mario games for a long time, and we know how to make them challenging. So if you’re a Mario fan, I don’t think you have to worry about that part of it.”

Shigeru Miyamoto appeared at Apple’s conference today to announce Super Mario Run. While the game will be on iOS first in December, it’s also slated for Android. The game just won’t be coming to the latter platform this year.

“For us, the stability of the iOS platform was important in choosing iPhones for the game,” Miyamoto mentioned to IGN. He explicitly told the site that Super Mario Run’s release on Android won’t be this year, meaning it’ll be in 2017.
