Kyoto Shimbun published a new article about Nintendo’s mobile plans yesterday, which included comments from president Tatsumi Kimishima. Sankei has now followed up with its own report.
Kimishima previously mentioned to Kyoto Shimbun that the company was looking at two or three mobile titles each year starting in 2017. However, Sankei has a different quote from him in which he says that Nintendo is always considering pushing out three, and maybe even more than that per year.
When it comes to payment types and whatnot, this will depend on the region and popularity of the franchise. Nintendo may even take the reactions from customers into account. Of course, with Super Mario Run, you’re able to play the first few levels for free before needing to pay $10 for the full experience.
We’ll also mention that Kimishima shared a few words about Nintendo’s partnership with Universal Studios. Nintendo wants to increase the publicity and exposure of its characters, which will tie into more popularity for the games themselves.
