That lets you know the business Tuesday morning Dutch time. Nintendo is a global collaboration with DeNA, a Japanese company that specializes in social and mobile games.
The two companies are specifically developed for mobile devices, taking advantage of Nintendo’s intellectual property, as probably the Super Mario series.
It is only completely new games, no passages of games that have been previously developed specifically for the Wii or 3DS. Every Nintendo series could in principle have a smartphone game.
Larger Audience
Nintendo says it expects this new market can bring more consumers into contact with his game series. The company took a long time off the boat when it was asked by investors also games for smartphones to develop.
Here are the combination of hardware and software was mentioned as the main reason. In other platforms Nintendo games on, dedicated game consoles would no longer be needed.
During the press conference Tuesday morning Nintendo called however the “sin” to ignore the smartphone market.
“Nintendo has decided to launch its games on mobile devices, but not because we share our passion for dedicated gaming devices are lost,” said Satoru Iwata from Nintendo on Tuesday during a press conference. He did not expect the mobile Nintendo games will provide a contraction in sales of own Nintendo hardware and games for devices like the Wii and 3DS.
New console
The company says already working on his next dedicated hardware, which bears the working title of ‘NX’. It is still unclear whether it is a mobile game console or a home console.
The past year, Nintendo already hinted to work on ways to introduce his game series to a larger group of people. Initially this would happen only through supporting mobile apps.
Iwata said that many creators of mobile games focus on making one hit game. “My goal is to quickly produce multiple popular titles for mobile devices.”
Subscription Service
When the first games to be launched exactly, is not clear. Nintendo said they do not expect any financial impact of the cooperation in this fiscal year, which runs until April 2016.
In the 2015 autumn is already a new membership service launched by Nintendo and Dena, available on both smartphones Nintendo consoles and PCs.
It is unclear what this service will mean exactly, but it counts as the successor of Club Nintendo, the current members service that Nintendo customers points can be collected by the company’s products to buy.
They are then exchanged for example merchandise. Nintendo showed early this year to know the end of June to pull the plug on Club Nintendo
