Super Mario Run

On the contrary, I'd be tremendously surprised if they actually put Wario in a Mario platformer for once.

I don't know why using popular recognizable characters to be playable characters, popular enough to be recurring in the Mario spin-offs (kart, party, sports games), is such an alien concept for the Mario platforming team.
 
Super Mario 64 DS. A game that came out more than a decade ago.

And when was, like, Wario's last platformer. A decade ago too?
 
I think it would be a waste to put Wario in this mobile runner as his first platformer appearance in this long. I'd rather have him in Super Mario Odyssey. Technically 64 DS was the last open-world (at least in the 64/Sunshine sense) 3D Mario until Odyssey, plus the whole hat thing. Save Wario for that instead of using him as a likely cosmetic (or almost so) feature in a mobile game.
 
I don't understand how it would be a "waste", considering not appearing at all is his other option, and that's arguably worse than being "wasted" on a mobile runner.

I liked it when Toadette was playable for once in a runner, and I don't really care if it's a smaller scale game, I was happy she was acknowledged all the same.
 
Doesn't look like there is.

Another thing to note, I've been able to play the game without an internet connection so long as I open the app when I do have internet.

EDIT: only worked a couple of times, dammit.
 
It's great that it is now on Android. Though it still has that DRM bullcrap as with the iOS version.
 
I've been having loads of fun with this in the last day. However, I don't think this is worth £10, so I'm sticking with the free version.
