Dr. Mario World reaches 7,5 million downloads in its first month

Dr. Mario World reaches 7,5 million downloads in its first month of life. Not long ago Nintendo has decided to market its games outside of its consoles.

This is his fifth game released for mobile devices, and it is a success again.

According to data published by Tower Sensor, Dr. Mario World has been downloaded 7,5 million times in its first 30 days of life, for both iOS and Android. It has generated revenues of 1,4 million dollars, a very important figure considering that it is free with some totally expendable purchase options.

If it is true that if we compare the figures of downloads and collection with the rest of Nintendo games for mobile phones it is not to shoot rockets, but we must bear in mind that it is a puzzle game, type Tetris, with much less circulation today . This is excellent data for the company.

If we could compare Dr. Mario with Sega heroes, for example. It is a game of the same style, type puzzle, and Sega, the direct competition of Nintendo. Well, in its first 30 days, it was downloaded 195.000 times, grossing $ 340.000 (not including Japan and South Korea). The difference is abysmal.

According to Sensor Tower, 55% of purchases come from Japanese users, very loyal to Nintendo, with a purchase figure of 770 dollars. It is followed by the US market, with $ 462.000 raised. Remember that these data are from the first 30 days of availability in the stores.

Nintendo has decided to exploit the iOS and Android mobile pathway, and it is doing quite well for them. The next game to arrive will be Mario Kart Tour, scheduled for release in the third quarter of this year. The well-known Mario racing game, this time will have its Free-to-Play version. It will surely be a guaranteed success again.
