A few years ago, suggesting Nintendo would become a third-party developer was a probatable offense. Now Pokemon and Mario are on the iPhone.

I don't think that's why you got probated

The full Super Mario Run press release is out there now. App is coming in December, free download that functions essentially as a demo, a single in-app purchase to unlock the full game, the previously announced Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem mobile titles will arrive by March 2017.

Can't wait for news outlets to start reporting "first Super Mario Game in over 20 years will be a iPhone title" like with Pokemon.

Remember Super Mario? If you're a nineties kid you might. Well his hermit creator Shigeru Miyamoto has returned from hiding after twenty years to make a game on, get this, the iPhone. Nintendo president Howard Lincoln could not be reached for comment.

I bought one of the Super Mario 3DS bundles online from Target just now, but I have no idea if I will get it or not. Their site is a malfunctioning boner most of the time.

Mother Earth is pregnant for the third time
For y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe
I was not offended
For I knew I had to rise above it all
Or drown in my own shit
It's like the easiest thing they could have done. Re-use NSMB assets, make it an auto-runner. Somehow this means Mario platformers on consoles are over.

Just saw footage of Super Mario Run and it looks so dull. It's not even horizontal. The footage looked like I was watching some dumb rear end record a video vertically.

One-handed Mario is Nintendo's first attempt at cornering the mobile gaming disability market.

It's vertical so you can easily holds it in one hand, and your finger doesn't block any of the gameplay.

I didn't do it online, but yeah basically AT&T Next takes what's left of the phone after your down payment and breaks it up into however many monthly payments you choose, then just adds those to your phone bill. You end up with a higher phone bill, but a lower down payment.

Functionally it works the same way as the old annual upgrade system for contract holders, but shunts more of the financial liability onto the customer I guess. If you trade in your old model, it's often enough to cover most or all of the remaining NEXT payments it had.

Lost my 2DS at the airport over Labor Day weekend along with a few games for it. I'm considering getting a New 3DS XL in the near future, but is there any way to recover the 5 or 6 digital games I purchased through the nintendo shop, now that I've lost the system I'd bought them on?

I heard you can contact Nintendo to get your account restored. People in the past had to give them police report to get them to do this, but I believe this practice has changed since. Thankfully the one time I lost my DS, I was able to find it the next day at the lost and found at campus.
