Jump Rope Challenge Isn't Going Anywhere Just Yet, Will Now Be Available "Until Further Notice"

(insert Mario 35th complaint about the limited time release here)

This is cool for that one person who hasn't download it yet

They sure Nintroll'd us.

"Are there any other "limited-time" games you would like to see offered for a little bit longer?"
You already know what limited time game we want offered for longer.

That was obvious. I'm still amazed that people believed that this would get removed. You can bet with me that the same will happen with 3D All Stars and it won't get removed either.

This is all marketing stunt to get people to download the app until they say that it'll continue on there. Same for 3D All Stars, or even a new version of a console where you don't announce it's coming and leave people to buy the old model. 2020 and people still didn't learn how those things works

They probably did this because of all the outcry from the whole "limited time thing" that's been going on since the 3D All-Stars announcement. Quite a pickle they've gotten themselves into.

It was a prank all along!

Hope they do the same with every upcoming limited release. Come on Nintendo. Not just “until further notice” but permanently

If Jump Rope Challenge outlasts Super Mario 3D All-Stars in terms of availability, that's gonna be hilarious.

I’ve said it before, Nintendo knows where they can blow their ‘limited offerings’ out of...

My guess with this one is that they didn't want to get tied into supporting it with bug fixes etc over a long period, since it probably wasn't subject to extensive QC. Now a few months down the line, it hasn't been much trouble for them and politically it's a good move to leave it there.

My switch got sent into repair and is in repair right now. If they delete my save data and games. I would hate to not have that game.

Hopefully "further notice" just means "to infinity and BEYOND"

Trololol, the same might happen with Mario 3D allstars. They just do it to boost interest.

Hopefully they keep Super Mario Bros. 35 longer as well once that launch.

i hope they just leave it up, id love for them to expand on simple games like this for NSO. its nice to get new games from the service other than just nes/snes games

Nintendo should've just put this behind the online service and at least attempt to give it some extra value, same with mario 35

You missed a trick by not saying: Nintendo skips past Jump Rope's end date. 😂

@Nemesis666 Fours Swords on DSi was a similar limited time game and they removed that when they said they would

There could be legit reasons for this.

They were going to start charging for it.
They were going to wall it behind NO.

And then they changed their mind.

Though changing their mind ONE DAY BEFORE rather than a week before is a very Nintendo move. Like announcing Kirby Fighters 2 basically after releasing it.

Maybe Reggie really was doing something at Nintendo besides being a mouthpiece after all? 🤷‍♂️

@Northwind I watched a video the other day, they actually can’t extend 3DAS. In Japan, there’s laws if you extend the release of a game that costs money, since people who only bought it because it was limited time would complain, it’s illegal.

They should do the same to Mario 3D All-Stars and Mario Bros 35 on the eShop.

@Northwind I think it might be like super mario 3D all stars. Where you can only recover it if you have archived it and not deleted.
