Nintendo finally shared the official download figures for its first mobile title ever, Super Mario Run.
According to Nintendo, Super Mario Run was downloaded 40 million times in its first 4 days in market.
Nintendo did not reveal how many of those downloads turned into a sale, but Sensor Tower analyst Spencer Gabriel estimates that only 8% of those who tried Super Mario Run actually purchased it.
Before launch, gamers had high expectations for Mario's first mobile debut. The game turned out to be a solid mobile runner, but it couldn't live to Nintendo fans' expectations. Many mobile players also couldn't accept the game's one-shot $10 price tag and the fact that the game requires constant online connection to play. Super Mario Run currently has a stable 2.5 stars score on the App Store.
