Nintendo plans to release "approximately" five phone games by March 2017 and none of the company's vast original properties are off limits, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata announced during a presentation early this morning. "Since the game business on smart devices is already severely competitive, even with highly popular IP, the odds of success are quite low if consumers cannot appreciate the quality of a game," he said. "Also, if we were simply to port software that already has a track record on a dedicated game system, it would not match the play styles of smart devices, and the appropriate business models are different between the two, so we would not anticipate a great result. Nintendo announced on March 17 a business alliance with mobile game maker DeNA to create these titles.
