Nintendo have already started their mobile adventures with the release of the very popular app Miitomo, and this week they have announced some new details about what we can expect in the future. This includes a pair of mobile apps based on the Fire Emblem and Animal Crossing franchises. Both games are targeted towards a release this fall.

Little has been said about the Animal Crossing application as well, but Nintendo did promise that the mobile version will connect somehow to at least one of the Animal Crossing games on Nintendo's gaming systems, though they didn't specify which titles would support this connectivity. Their most recent titles include Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival for Wii U and Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer for 3DS so it's not unlikely that these will tie in to this somehow.

As for the Fire Emblem application, Nintendo states that Fire Emblem for mobile devices is designed to be a more accessible in comparison to the Fire Emblem games for Nintendo's dedicated gaming systems, and it will also offer the great value of a role-playing strategy game. Both of these titles are also described as "pure game applications."

Compared to Miitomo, they have more prominent game elements, and the game content will tie closely into Nintendo's dedicated games business. Nintendo will provide more details about these applications closer to their launch period, and aims to have multiple types of apps that appeal to different audiences and different groups of players.
