This will likely be the web/mobile eShop / Miiverse app that Nintendo have been working on. That's my bet.

I hope it's actually good and not Japan only but I suspect it will be, at least initially. Nintendo sucks with product and service rollouts.

I can feel my internal fight-or-flight response triggering. Not sure which side has won yet.

Infernal Monkey · Mar 17, 2015

They're finally going to make a 3D Pokemon RPG for the Nintendo 64 can't wait.

EndlessFloydian · Mar 17, 2015

Nothing major, I presume.

careksims · Mar 17, 2015

lol I was gonna go to sleep but now....

Marche90 · Mar 17, 2015

I have no idea what's going on, but you can be sure I'll stay awake to find out.

Good bye, decent sleep cycle, btw

Septimus · Mar 17, 2015

Yeah I was gonna sleep but definitely staying up. How curious and random~

NinjaTehFish · Mar 17, 2015

Is exactly how I feel.

Jigorath · Mar 17, 2015

Nintendo going mobile?

Should have started making games for mobile years ago.

Interceptor · Mar 17, 2015

60 minutes is scaring me.

Balmung421 · Mar 17, 2015

😱 Not going to bed now

Nanashrew · Mar 17, 2015

I was about to sleep too lol. Probably would have helped to fix my sleep schedule since I've been staying up until 5-6 in the morning.

Tagg9 · Mar 17, 2015

I really can't imagine anything good coming out of this.

Gilbals · Mar 17, 2015

I'm ready...Don't make me, Nintendo.

Most probably announcing a partnership along with some exclusives is what I predict for now.
60 minutes sound pretty scary though, I give you that.

EDIT: Fittingly, Danger Zone is currently playing in my Spotify playlist.

RIIIIIDE IIIINTOOOO THE DAAAANGER ZONE!!!

Except for companion apps that aren't related to Mario on mobile

CHusson91 · Mar 17, 2015

You guys should move to Japan like I did. Makes things like this a bit easier.

Darknight34 · Mar 17, 2015

Could be nothing... but...I'm scared..

Partnership or Nintendo bought mobage.

SgtCobra · Mar 17, 2015

Is it finally happening? Does Nintendo want to make even more money?

Nope

Can't wait for my Mario mobage.

about time nintendo embraced the future of gaming

StevieP · Mar 17, 2015

Oh never mind, this thread is already becoming a thread where commonly parroted "should go mobile" false arguments are made, like just above

tsab · Mar 17, 2015

Hold me I am scared

They're announcing the long awaited Link and Star Fox sprite DLC for M&L Superstar Saga.

kuroneko0509 · Mar 17, 2015

I guess this is why we don't get any direct yet... they're busy preparing for the switch to mobile space :^)

WonderRade · Mar 17, 2015

guys dont worry, Iwata is jut gonna come out there and be like...

The Giant · Mar 17, 2015

This most likely a buyout or mobage coming to wii u and 3ds

DXB-KNIGHT · Mar 17, 2015

This will either be very positive or very negative

Would be crazy if Nintendo bought DeNA, which is of course a total possibility.

Let's hope it won't accumulate to something negative for Nintendo.

wrowa · Mar 17, 2015

Is there anyone else reporting this?

EatChildren · Mar 17, 2015

Probably the announcement of Metroid iPrime.

If Nintendo bought Mobage, they'll have all the mobile revenue without risking their IPs since everything will be under the DeNa label

Not yet, but Dr. Serkan Toto is the person to go to for a western perspective on the Japanese gaming industry.

SuperChoco · Mar 17, 2015

If you knew that the world ended in a hour how would you spend it

keisuke999 · Mar 17, 2015

If Nintendo buys DeNA, they'll be getting a ton of other stuff, too. DeNA has a baseball team, their own airline vendor ticket website, and a bunch of other stuff.

Wow that's QOL

JoeM86 · Mar 17, 2015

Seriously, people are thinking this is Nintendo going mobile after Iwata categorically said, again, last month that it's not happening?

Good grief.

They said they're going to do an app featuring Miis. They said eShop/Miiverse apps. That's the most we'll get on smartphones.

NolbertoS · Mar 17, 2015

Gilbals said:
No...no....no...no....

Lmao at Beaker, now we need Fozzy to entertain us, Wacka, wacka

And fear not GAF, Nintendo will crush all indie developers in the mobile segment and reign supreme hahahahahah

30yearsofhurt · Mar 17, 2015

Sony owns 13% of DeNA.
Sony and Nintendo working together?

No. Don't be silly.
It's just the end of the world.

A Pretty Panda · Mar 17, 2015

First result for mobage is a paper toss game. Is that what Miyamoto's been doing?

I think most people are just having fun in this thread. I know I am.

A lot, sure, but a fundamental change in strategy which would destroy Nintendo's one successful avenue? Please.
