I could see a Pikmin game.

And while some may not like it, Star Fox with its on-rails mechanics could also work on mobile.



Please excuse my bad English.

I agree with the games you listed.... I'll disagree with the Animal Crossing though. Animal Crossing is an example of a perfect IP to mobilize in some fashion.


Like I mentioned. AC has a lot of Assets involved to make a game. Also, New Leaf is still selling.

Tomodachi Life - The assets issue comes up again. They won't have the amount of assets necessary to make this game at it's highest quality. 

I disagree on this. The assets are in no way comparable to Zelda and Mobile games have assets the level of Tomodachi. Tomodachi could be for two reasons very interesting for this partnership.

1) Bringing Miis to mobile platforms would be a nice integration of the Nintendo ecosystem into mobile. It would work on mobile devices and people would be more used to Miis and maybe more accepting to Nintendo-products.

2) As I read Dena makes money mostly with In-App purchases. Well, in Tomodachi Life you could sell endless amounts of clothing, food, items, songs and room decorations. Dena would swim in money - and Nintendo depending on how the contract is made.

EDIT: I see you don't see the quality but the numebr of assets as a problem. But In-app-purchases for most stuff would turn this argument completely around: nearly everything can be made available as purchase. That would make them much more money and they could add new items over time.

Probably what you mentioned. But I also want this to reappear:

Pokemon and Nintendogs.

That might work pretty. It's already very touch based, and is a significantly less relevant IP on consoles than it was a few years back. They could probably get away with just releasing a refined version of Nintendogs + cats.

Expect games structured like Heartstone or Puzzles and Dragons. Don't expect them to just take the "casual" Nintendo games like Nintendogs or Brain Age, and copy paste them onto mobile devices.

And expect to see them using popular IP. They aren't going to use Tomodatchi, they're going to use Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, etc. Expect new game mobile-influenced concepts using staple IP.

Perfect example. Exactly like those old Gameboy games. Slightly "hardcore," mobile experiences. A card game with RPG elements.
