WSJ: Nintendo making multiple mobile games based on RPG IPs (they’re counting Zelda as an RPG)

Really good. If i'm not mistaken, it was said a while ago that FE Heroes made 115 million for Ninty
Really interested in that potential xenoblade mobile game. Wonder if it'll actually resonate with the Japanese market.
Great Little War Game and Great Big War Game are both well worth checking out.
I think it has more to do with the success of FEH and relative fail of SMR than FGO.
One issue with Xenoblade is that it doesn't have enough IP strength to really sell that much? It seems like a chronic underperformer in Japan.
Its the opposite of effortless since It will have to be marketed to sell.
Maybe something like Mario RPG..

Edit: I can confirm ACPC is meaty in content.

I don't think Advance Wars will ever come back.
"The fun of military" is not a super salable concept without going grimdark.
wonder what kind of trouble they have been running into. maybe something like retooling after Mario Run and FE Heroes' performances? or an issue with how "full game" it feels?
But the grimdark one is the one that ruined the series.
Fortunately Tiny Metal and Wargroove are coming.
you say ruined, I say it was one of the best games in the series. the franchise was already on a decline anyway, so I'd be hard-pressed to say it "killed" it. more like it didnt resuscitate it
Their Q2 results and the accompanying briefing are on Monday. Wonder if they'll confirm Zelda then.
If I were to choose an aspect of Zelda to adapt for bite-size pick-up-and-play sessions, it would definitely be the dungeons, in the form of single-screen puzzles. Probably not the easiest genre to monetize, though.

Nintendo has done a great job with their mobile games so far. I'm pretty much in until they screw one up.
K so, what's with the random bump of a 2 year old thread?
Well, since someone bumped this thread, let's discuss!
In the past 2 years since this was reported by WSJ, we got Dragalia Lost as mobile RPG. I'm not sure what other RPGs was listed for mobile.
I'm also surprised WSJ's report on Animal Crossing being delayed and rebooted, so they put in features learned from the past 2 games. It didn't mention if it's City Folk, Wild World, or New Leaf. What lessons were learnt to improve Animal Crossing?
