But yeah, nobody likes it, and Miitomo had a better buzz.

Pokémon Go released when everyone was either getting ready to go out or go to sleep and it was so popular at the immediate moment of launch that servers didn't work at all until the next day and still struggled for weeks after. I remember because some rando at the bar I was at yelled out that the game was up on the App Store and everyone started downloading it 😒😒😒
As I said, it's no Pokémon Go. Closer to Miitomo if anything.
It's doing worse than a free internet radio apphttps://twitter.com/serkantoto/status/809522337548738562

I watched the GameXplain livestream and it looks pretty damn fun to me. The one thing that I'm probably going to get frustrated by is having to restart a level if you miss something, but since the levels are so short anyway it probably won't be a huge deal ultimately.
Too bad I have to wait for the Android version...

I'm not, I'm defending my statement about how the game isn't as successful as Pokemon go.
Achtung, baby
Your posts are as annoying as the character in your profile pic.

Your post is laughable if serious.
It is already one of the highest grossing apps in the U.S. close to Pokemon Go.
It has been out 2 hours, and is almost grossing as much as PokemonGo.
Get serious.

It's well below Pokemon Go which hasn't been particularly notable since July or August. It also costs $10 unlike every app above it, which depend on people being invested in the app to make revenue.
I believe Miitomo topped the free games chart for a day, correct me if I'm wrong 🤔

You came to this great concept a few hours after it was released?
You should not jump to conclusions so fast , because it makes you sound a but dumb.

By well below you mean 2 spots below in the U.S. and it has only been out for 2 hours.
You are either a really bad troll or dense.
Either way your posts are annoying drive-by trash.

listen to the mad man
You're being a stupid idiot right now and this is a review threads so it's baffling to me that there is even a derail about the game's performance.

Again, Pokemon Go was doing so wildly well moments after release that nobody could even play the damn thing for hours. Already doing worse.
I think what happened was that someone accused reviewers of being paid off to give the game high scores because of the fact that the game wasn't doing too well despite being rated very highly, then we started talking about if the game was doing well or not.

Pandora is one of the more popular music streaming services in the United State with a $5 sub service, lots of ads and has had a huge install base, around 80 million for years. Mario Run came out a few hours ago.

Yeah we are all stupid, but please stop iluminating us.
I have enjoyed the game a lot so did my family. Smw is still my fav mario game, but this is a refreshing change.

You are missing a great mobile app. Its all the nintendo magic on the contrains of a one button input.
Played the trial and it's exactly what you would expect, a super easy not very inspired endless runner with Mario. I have itunes credit I've had for years to spend and it's still not worth $10 to me. I know I could burn through it in a few hours and like most Mario games since Sunshine it's just too easy, needs more challenge to be fun for a guy like me.

Go through and collect all the black coins without a guide and let me know if it's still easy for you.

Try the extra coin challenges when re-entering levels. They get reasonably challenging in the first world alone.

You mean the opening levels aren't challenging to someone who's been playing games since Mega Man?
Man, they're really let the hardcore players down.

Because always-online isn't justified in this game.

Its to keep people from stealing the extra levels, yeah?

Because the first 3 levels of every Mario game have always been extremely challenging...
What the hell is it about Mario Run that people are losing their minds over?!

The people who've given constructive reasons as to why they don't like the game aren't those I'm talking about (there have also been very few of those...)
"These stupid 30-years-old platformers which didn't change at all since NES are outside of Nintendo consoles now!"

Reggie looks like a real life Donkey Kong.
He even has that little point to the top of his hair.
I'm willing to bet you've never taken a train to work on the east coast
It is basically impossible to get a stable internet connection on NJTransit, PATH or the NY subway
I remember trying to play Miitomo on my commute and I literally couldn't because it would sometimes take upwards of ten minutes for the game to get a connection it could run on. And I'm far from "the boonies," I live in suburban NJ right next to NYC.

So; the rayman ios games or super mario run?
Ah, yes, surely, the evidence being Nintendo never earned a bad reviews ever, huh?

The same people relentlessly slagging off this game are exactly the same people who, in every single thread about Nintendo, drone on about how they should go third party and should just make mobile games instead of 3DS games etc etc.
Nintendo just bring out absolute hate in people. It's partially a reaction to the occasionally bewildering things Nintendo do, partially hate at Nintendo for not being as sycophantically faux-'consumer friendly' as Sony and Microsoft (that is, I think all major hardware companies are just as profit driven as each other), and partially just total xenophobia because Nintendo are probably the biggest consumer goods company in the world to be SO non-Western in the way they operate.
I downloaded Super Mario Run and REALLY enjoyed the demo levels. It flows so well and feels wonderful to play. But I'm just not sure it has enough content to warrant an £8 purchase, at this moment in time... When stuff like BoxBoy and Pullblox is under £5 on the eShop it becomes a bit harder to warrant buying a similar game which is lighter on content for a higher price point. Even though I really want it!
Also, the always online thing is inconvenient for sure, and I'd rather it wasn't there. But it's not the end of the world and ultimately won't effect playing the game to a great extent. People seem to forget that Pokemon Go, the most insanely popular 'game' of the last ten years at least, was necessarily always online, and that didn't exactly put people off.

One things for certain, why do these big review game sites like gamespot and IGN are quick to review Mario Run but not other quality premium mobile games?
Where are there reviews for at least some of them? No where to be found.
Do you have any idea what Pokémon Go uses servers for vs. this game that basically just pings to make sure you are online and probably just records your score?
I don't even know if the game is good but your statement is idiotic.
