Super Mario is one of the most anticipated game from Nintendo since it's the first from the Mario franchise to be ported for mobile. Now, the game managed to receive a new game mode.

Nintendo announced that Super Mario Run will be having a new game mode added in the game. The Friendly Run is the new game made which is not exactly new. The Friendly Run is a modified version of an existing game mode, Toad Rally. Players will be battling each other in Toad Rally for Friendly Run.  Players can collect different colored Toads and coins, which they can use in unlocking certain items and abilities.

Players can only play Friendly Run once a day. They can access this game mode after clearing World One in the World Tour mode. By finishing World One, players will be able to play Friendly Run three times a day. Unfortunately, the final level of World One is still not out for public yet.

Super Mario Run's new game mode is a response to Nintendo's statement that they won't be adding any new content in the game. This is a good way to pass the time with Super Mario Run while waiting for the new worlds to unlock. This could also be Nintendo's way to address some of the negative feedback that they received from fans about the game.

Super Mario Run first launched on December 15. The game is first released for the iOS devices. The reason for Nintendo to release first for the iOS devices is mostly security reasons. Since Android doesn't have the same security as Apple, it's easy for people to pirate a copy of a game for the Android. This is what Nintendo is avoiding because they want to create a secure environment for their players.

Despite Super Mario Run's success, it failed to impress the investors. Investors pointed out that Super Mario Run only relies on the one-time payment of $9.99 to fully enjoy the game, unlike Pokemon Go, who gets their profit through microtransactions. Despite this drawback, the game received forty million downloads in just four days.
