Super Mario is finally heading to Apple's iPhone.
The game is called "Super Mario Run," and it's the first time everyone's favorite Italian plumber is appearing on the world's most popular game console, the iPhone.
It's a constant runner, where Mario is automatically running from left to right:
Think "Flappy Bird," but Super Mario and the standard Super Mario levels you're used to — lava and question mark blocks and what have you.
But don't think this is your standard "Super Mario" controls.
Since Mario is automatically running, all you're doing is tapping on the screen to make him jump. The longer you touch, the higher he jumps. Simple! It's an easy way to play Mario on-the-go, with just one hand.
The goal of the game is simple: collect coins and reach the flagpole. You can play against friends in a special battle mode as well.
"Super Mario Run" isn't a free game — it will cost a "set price," which Miyamoto was careful to point out. Free-to-play "Pokémon Go" this is not. There's no release date for the game just yet, but Nintendo says it will be out before the holidays.
In addition, Nintendo is giving iMessage users a bonus with Mario stickers, which are also coming soon.
Nintendo plans on releasing two more mobile games in the coming months, featuring "Animal Crossing" and "Fire Emblem." However, it looks like "Super Mario Run" will be the first big Nintendo game on mobile.
