Good news for all you teens of the 80’s (Clinton raises his hand) – Super Mario Run is coming to Android.  When?  Oh who knows but it is coming eventually.

In case you missed it, the side runner game was announced yesterday by Nintendo for iOS and it will be available on that platform later this year.  When exactly isn’t clear but it will for sure be in time for the holiday season.  According to the site Kotaku, Nintendo has confirmed they will be making the game available for Android at some point in the future.

Nintendo tells Kotaku: “We do intend to release the game on Android devices at some point in the future.”

Now when that future is exactly is unclear but it almost certainly will be 2017.

Google and Box have announced a new partnership that essentially allows the cloud-based storage company to be a repository for Google Docs for Box customers.  This is a big deal for businesses who leverage Box as they can keep all of the documents within Box yet still leverage the power of Google Docs within their SMB or Enterprise.

The integration between Box and Google Docs will enable Box to act as a third-party repository for Docs, Sheets and Slides, allowing users to create and collaboratively edit Google Docs directly from Box.

The integration doesn’t stop there as there are also plans to integrate Box with Google Springboard.

Formula One fans have a lot to be excited about these days.  This year’s championship is a bit closer (amongst the Mercedes drivers at least), fat, 70s-style tires are coming next season, there are new owners of the sport and Codemasters is finally making their game available for mobile devices!  F1 2016, the outstanding F1 career and racing game that has been available for consoles, will be coming to iOS and Android later this year as a paid app.  The news came from the Apple event yesterday where the epic racing game will first be coming to iOS and later to Android.  How much later is unclear but it should be this year.

F1 2016 brings you the entire 2016 season, all 21 races, along with all the teams and drivers.  It is officially licensed from Formula One Management (FOM) so this is not a knock-off.  This is the real deal and if it is anything like the console games, it will be a real treat.

Android Pay and Uber have teamed up to give you a great deal now through October 15, 2016.  If you use Uber and you pay for your fare with Android Pay, you will get a 50% discount off that fare.  The better news?  You can do this up to 10 times!  That could be a huge savings for you if you use the service extensively.

What do you have to do?  Well, not much really and chances are you already have everything on your phone you need to take advantage of this promotion.  First, and obviously, you need to have both the Android Pay app and the Uber app on your phone.  If you don’t have them, you can get Android Pay here and Uber here from the Play Store.  Sign into Pay and get it all set up then open up the Uber app and we’ll pick things up after the break.
