Google Maps has added a playful and fun way to drive with Super Mario Bros to its Android and iPhone application.
On the occasion of the anniversary and launch of the new Mario Kart game, Google has partnered with Nintendo to transform the directions so that the arrow indicating the current position is drawn as Mario Kart, which becomes really nice to see.
This trick is available from March 10, " Mario Day " date, and will be available for a week, from Saturday to Saturday, so you can see Mario racing on his Kart when we use the turn by turn road navigator with Google Maps.
To activate the display of the mustachioed plumber Mario driving on Google Maps maps, it is necessary to proceed first with updating the application to the latest version.
Once the updated app is installed, search for a destination from the search bar and press the button to get driving directions.
Once the itinerary is displayed, before leaving, touch down on a question mark that appears next to the blue Start button that starts the sat nav.
By pressing the question mark icon, a box will appear inviting you to explore the world as Mario to celebrate Mario Day on March 10th 2018 and you can press the blue Let's Go button to start.
The navigator with real-time road indications will work as normal, with the difference that our position on the map seen in 3D is indicated by the cartoon figure of Mario Kart and not by the usual arrow.
Surely this is an advertising trick that will have to do with the new Mario Kart game coming out this year, which can probably be played on the streets all over the world.
