$14 in Canada (which doesn't even make sense with the current exchange rate), so not a chance I'll get it. $5 is pretty much the maximum I'll spend on a mobile game



I've spent more on the app store. Dragon Quest 8 on iOS is $20 but I still bought it XD



It will sell like crazy. Mario more famous than Mickey confirmed.



Ehh, $10 is a little too much for a mobile game.

It's Nintendo. Their game will probably blow the other games out of the water in terms of quality. Apple customers don't mind paying for quality.

Two of the Rayman games for iOS and Android are quite good (Jungle Run + Fiesta Run), won't be easy to top them with similar game mechanics.

Rayman Adventures was also good, but was hurt by the free2play-model.





Yeah, 10 USDs is a bit much for a runner type of game. I feel it could get much more sales if they dropped it down to $5

I'm sure that the game will be discounted now and then. iOS-discounts of a high priced app are better for the ranking than if the app is medium priced to begin with.

I wouldn't wonder if the first discount from $9.99 to $6.99 or $4.99 is already in the christmas week, which is normally the week with the highest revenue of the AppStore.

Much more people will buy a "Super Mario Run" discounted from $9.99 to $4.99 than an undiscounted "Super Mario Run" for a base price of $4.99.

That's a smart price. High for a runner, cheap for a Mario game. Under $10 is still low enough that people will buy it without giving it too much thought. Kid gets new iPhone, begs mom for Mario, she sees it's $9, taps visa. They'll sell 30 million of this without effort no matter what the price is. Might as well make $300 mil instead of 150.

This!
