'Dr. Mario World' is Nintendo's next mobile game coming in July

Nintendo made a surprising announcement just days after the conclusion of E3: Dr. Mario World is coming to mobile devices.

Dr. Mario World, a modernized twist on the classic puzzle game that debuted on the NES and Game Boy in 1990, is a color-matching game involving viruses, pills, and Super Mario characters with questionable qualifications. Instead of just having Mario be the doctor (or Luigi from 2013's Dr. Luigi), he'll be joined by Dr. Peach, Dr. Bowser, Dr. Toad, and Dr. Yoshi, none of whom are probably real doctors.

Dr. Mario World, Nintendo's fifth mobile game, arrives on phones July 10.
