![]() The company is yet to confirm how it plans to monetize its titles. Some fans are worried Nintendo will ruin series like Animal Crossing on mobile with In-App Purchases or other free-to-play models. Fire Emblem is a more traditional fighter RPG for ‘serious gamers’, so it will be interesting to see how that is translated to the mobile space. On Wii and DS, Animal Crossing is a life simulation game where players control a village populated by humanoid animals, furnishing houses and helping out with various tasks in the town. Its first release, Miitomo, received good reviews but hardcore fans are anxious to see traditional games appearing on iOS with recognizable characters. Nintendo has announced it will release 5 iOS titles by the end of its fiscal year in March 2017. The new smartphone and tablet titles are expected to be released later this year, around October.ĭetails about the new titles are scarce, with little more than a teaser tweet from the company to go on. Notably, unlike Miitomo, these are going to be versions of existing successful Nintendo franchises: Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem.Īlthough Animal Crossing is not quite on the same podium as Super Mario, it is still major first-party intellectual property for Nintendo to release on non-Nintendo consoles for the first time. Having already released its first iPhone game Miitomo, a bespoke social networking game, Nintendo is now teasing the next round of games headed to the iPhone and iOS devices.
