Last week, a demo for Super Mario Bros. Wonder rolled out at Switch kiosks across the US. Nintendo has now officially announced this on social media, and it’s got many fans calling for a Switch eShop demo that they can play at home.
Unfortunately, not everyone can get to one of these kiosks, and many people are located outside of the US, so it’s impossible to try out this demo right now. Here’s just a handful of these requests:
One theory as to why Nintendo won’t be making an eShop demo for Super Mario Bros. Wonder available, at least ahead of launch, is due to concerns about it being datamined. Keep in mind, this is just fan speculation and there could be all sorts of reasons Nintendo hasn’t made this demo available on the eShop at this point in time.
If you are curious to know what the demo has to offer, here’s Nintendo’s official description:
“Check out Mario’s latest adventure, and see how Wonder Flowers shake up the classic platforming gameplay with all kinds of wild Wonder effects. Take your pick from the largest cast of characters ever seen in a side-scrolling Mario game, and hop into the Flower Kingdom with up to 4 players in local co-op. You’ll even get to try some new power-ups, like the Elephant Fruit!”
