Nintendo's 'Mario Kart Tour' for iOS will be 'free-to-start'

It sucks that you can’t flip the iPad upside down and rotate the portrait screen 180 degrees - The kids have destroyed Lightning cables that get bent sharply as the iPad rests on them.
I prefer to pay once then have unlimited use of a full game and typically avoid apps with in-app-purchases.
By making Mario Run an in-app-purchase Nintendo make more money out of families whilst at the same time somewhat misleadingly carrying the “Supports Family Sharing” sticker.
I’d pay 9.99 to 15.99 for a good Mariokart game on iOS. -
