Jump Rope Challenge was all set to go “poof” today, just like Super Mario All-Stars 3D will in 2021. It is…the Nintendo way.

Except this time, a game was spared from the “vault” treatment, at least for now. Announced on Twitter in the dead of night last night, Nintendo of America explained that they had a change of heart. Jump Rope Challenge, having reached a “2.5 billion jump” milestone, will remain on the eShop.

How long is it staying? Well, it seems like a threat. Nintendo notes: “As new jumpers are joining, the free download will be available until further notice and will not be removed from the Nintendo eShop on 9/30.” Until further notice eh? Well if you haven’t picked up this free app yet, you may as well do it now.
