Following the announcement of Super Mario Run, we learned that the Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing mobile games have been delayed. The two will now be available sometime between Super Mario Run’s launch and March 2017, as opposed to fall of this year.

Nintendo has since commented a bit further on the delay. A representative provided IGN with the following statement:

“Based on a variety of factors, we felt it was most appropriate for Super Mario Run to launch ahead of these other two apps. Our Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem titles for mobile will launch before the end of our fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2017.”

When we last heard about Nintendo’s plans for Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing on mobile, the two games were set to arrive this fall. It now seems that’s changed a bit. In today’s Super Mario Run announcement, Nintendo said that the company “plans to deliver its previously announced mobile device titles in the Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem series before the end of March, 2017.”

Super Mario Run is the next mobile game Nintendo will be releasing. That one will be out on iPhone and iPad in December. We can expect Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing between the launch of Super Mario Run and March.
