Nintendo Exploring The Idea Of Smartphone Peripherals And More Apps

Shinya Takahashi (Nintendo‘s general manager of entertainment planning and development), mentioned that the company is exploring the mobile industry in multiple ways, including potential peripherals. Takahashi said that “physical controllers for smart device applications are available in the market and it is possible that we may also develop something new by ourselves. I believe Nintendo’s way of thinking is to look at whether action games are really not impossible (without a physical controller for smart device applications) to create and how we can make it happen to create such a game”. Takahashi also said that Nintendo was also interested in straying from the norm in mobile gaming and is committed to exploring different types of apps like Miitomo. President Tatsumi Kimishima agreed, adding that Japanese smart phone game platform provider DeNA and Nintendo have plans to launch “various projects in the future.”

Nintendo’s Second Mobile Game Will Feature Their Best Know Character


According to The Wall Street Journal, Nintendo’s next mobile game after the unreleased Miitomo will feature one of Nintendo best known characters. There’s no hinting at who it could be, so we’ll have to play that waiting game for now. Who do you think it could be ? I’d say Mario just to play it safe, but it would be cool if it was someone else like Link or Samus. Nintendo’s first mobile game Miitomo is due to be released this March on iOS and Android.

Anyone else bummed it’s not a actual game? What do you think of Miitomo ? I’d like to wait until the game comes out say anything about it, but its looks someone interesting from what we’ve seen of it.

Nintendo and DeNA have announced their first mobile game. It’s titled Miitomo and is free to play with microtransactions. Nintendo’s other smartphone games will be pay to download. Below you can find more details about the game via The Wall Street Journal. What do you think of Miitomo ?


The new smartphone game will be “Miitomo”. It will be free to play, with attractive add-ons that people can pay for, Mr. Kimishima says. Other smartphone games will be pay to download, he says. Looks like Miis go ahead and communicate with other Miis without your knowledge. This will help people who are hesitant to talk about themselves to communicate with others, and reveal a side of your friends you never knew, Mr. Kimishima says. In the new “Miitomo” game, users will design their own avatars, or “Miis,” to communicate with other users. Executive Shinya Takahashi says that Nintendo will find ways to encourage people who are hesitant to talk to share things about themselves. Miitomo is the first of 5 smartphone apps that Nintendo plans to release by March 2017. Miimoto will release by March 2016.

Could Nintendo Announce A Mobile Game At The Next iPhone Event ?


 DeNA and Nintendo have been working on a title for mobile and tablets and it looks like they are getting ready to reveal the first title. The game should launch by the end of the year if all goes well and there will clearly be a lot of interest in the title. There should be 5 mobile games released by 2017.
