Nintendo has finally released Super Mario Run for smartphone last week, but is exclusive only for iOS devices. However, there are rumors that the game will also be available for Android users.

Nintendo have yet to confirm the release date of Super Mario Run on Android OS. With that said, it attracted scammers to offer fake Android APKs for the mobile game. While iOS users are happy collecting coins and rescuing the princess, online scammers are taking advantage on fan's disappointments with Nintendo releasing the game for iOS devices only. We should be careful getting these APKs since it might steal information from your phone. There are millions of fans who can't play the real Super Mario Run because of the fact that they are using Android devices. To note, it's not practical to buy an iOS device just to play the game, even if they are a fan. It's a shame since the launch of Super Mario Run was a big event, made less big by not launching on Android.

Yes, we all know that the game is very popular. But despite this popularity, Super Mario Run received bad comments and poor reviews since you need to pay $10 just to play the first three levels although the download is free. Another reason is, from the fans' point of view, the game is not fun at all. According to Hideki Yasuda, an analyst from ACE Research Institute, players expected too much from the game. It seems that the game trailer shown too much graphical representation and misrepresents its game features which may affect players' expectations.

Nintendo is a very meticulous company, they are very careful that they chose iOS to carry the game. Now that players are looking forward to Android version of the game, will "Super Mario Run" also be launched on Android OS? If you are an Android user and been waiting for the game, you have more reason to be happy because Nintendo also have plans to release the game on Android. A report from Forbes, Nintendo expressed their intention to release the game in Android in the future.
