Having dominated the handheld gaming market for so long prior to the rise of smartphones, Nintendo has now officially announced its very first mobile game, entitled Miitomo.
Produced in partnership with DeNA, Miitomo will be “free to start”, with additional add-ons available at a price. Here’s the official description of the game from Nintendo’s press release…
Miitomo is a free-to-start communication application that helps friends share fun personal facts and interests. Consumers create and use their own Mii characters to engage friends in a welcoming social environment, answering questions and sharing information to discover more about each other and what they have in common. Miitomo is designed to appeal to a wide range of global smart device users and introduce them to uniquely Nintendo experiences beginning with Miitomo and carried through future applications.
Miitomo will be available from March 2016.
