Nintendo showcased two of its most awaited properties during Wednesday’s episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon in Super Mario Run for iPhones, and The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild for the Nintendo Switch.
Alongside, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aimé revealed – with Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto present in the audience – that the first mobile adventure with Mario due next week, will be available in Apple Stores around the world as a playable demo starting Thursday.
“Super Mario Run launches December 15th, but beginning Thursday [December 8], you go to an Apple Store and you’ll be able to participate in a demo available across the world in Apple Stores beginning this Thursday,” Fils-Aime added. Nintendo had earlier announced that Super Mario Run will be available as a free download upon launch for players to try out the three game modes – Toad Rally, Kingdom Builder, and World Tour – before deciding to spend $10 in the US / Rs. 620 in India for the complete game. But if you can’t wait even a week, you can head to your nearest Apple Store to try out Super Mario Run.
We also got a first look at the upcoming Nintendo Switch outside of the trailer, with Fils-Aimé and Fallon showcasing the convertible aspects of the Switch while playing the new Zelda title. You can catch a bit of the gameplay in the video above, which hints at how the world will look, and the different actions available for Link. If you wish to know more, Fils-Aimé said Nintendo will reveal more about the Switch on January 12, something we were already aware of.
