I don't care about it at all but I'm glad to see Toadette in it.

I think it's an okay time waster, nothing too major.

Unfortunately, despite Nintendo’s history and reputation, Super Mario Run is not a family-friendly game — or at least not one my wife and I will be letting our 6-year-old daughter play. The game is rife with stale, retrograde gender stereotypes — elements that were perhaps expected in 1985, when the first Super Mario Bros. was released in the United States, but that today are just embarrassing. The game also includes a second female character, Toadette, whose job is to wave a flag before and after a race, like a character from “Grease.”

Oh yes. That article.

I would play it..... if it was on Android. I never thought I would see Toadette in a NSMB game, let alone playable.

I have long been hoping it could've been her instead of those boring blue and yellow Toads

Like every phone game it's shit.

@Magma Same. She's supposed to be the hardest to unlock, but I'll go through the effort to unlock her regardless since she's much cooler.

It's pretty good. I mean, that's what my review says anyway:

Damn that intro though. Takes too damn long to get to the real game.

It isn't on android yet, but it's apparently doing well for Nintendo.

Wonder when I'll get to play it. Or if I'll bother.

Who the actual hell thinks that?

So this game is on Android now. I will check it out for one reason and one reason only.
