As a mobile phone game? Heck no. I would hope, if that was in development, after the reaction to federation force, they would have quietly closed it or shifted it to another ip

Watch Mona get her own game...
On mobile.
With ads.
If that were to happen, I might have to ask for a voluntary weeklong ban because I don't know if could even deal. On the other hand, I want to have faith in Nintendo. I'm just a little worried you know, the Only Nintendo I've ever known and loved, is literally dead, and I miss him dearly.

It doesn't seem that far fetched that he would. Hope he didn't actually work on the app itself because posting about it like this seems like it would be a career limiting move.

"Expect the unexpected": a game I actually want to play? #zing
I want to believe, but...nope. =(

I don't think so, he may have been a consultant though. He seems to be keenly aware of the product and his speech is passive to positive.
The lack of *bad leaks* is always a good sign too. I'm expecting this within the week, and a Direct + new account infrastructure/backend within the month.

WarioWare is one of their few franchises that could make the jump to mobile without being destroyed. MarioKart could too actually as could the majority of their turn based games.
New Super Mario Bros. Endless Runner
WarioWare Mega Mobile Micro Games
Pokemon (GO and really any main series Pokemon games would also work fine)
Nintendogs
Mario Kart Mobile
Are probably want I'd want.

I understood that reference.
I didn't. And I love Tiny Toon Adventures
You never listened to the words of the theme song I guess
It was also in the theme song, but I don't think it was in the show.
The eff is with theme songs and "expect the unexpected."

Just from his Twitter feed, he seems to be a consultant in the game industry who lives in Japan and really likes Nintendo.
Last time I've watched TTA was years ago, so I didn't remember them. But now it all makes sense~
He is the CEO of Tokyo-based game industry consultancy Kantan Games.
He covers a lot of Nintendo news and usually translates news from Japan for English speaking audiences.
It's clear that he also has contacts within the industry and therefore knows a reveal will come soon.

He also was the first to really give the details of Kimishima's presidency.
Well that's what you get for loving a business. Seriously I love my hobby and Nintendo has been a big part of it but I'm never going to be emotionally attached to what is essentially a PLC beholden to its shareholders.
Life and business moves on, if Nintendo manages to actually make a go of mobile properly and in a sustainable manner, it'll keep them going long after dedicated gaming devices are long obsolete.
Well he was just translating articles from Nikkei for for English speaking market. See second line of the post you quoted.
He did not know about the decision before anyone else.
Well, I meant in the context ... that's how everybody knows of him already on Neogaf.

But nobody even remembers that game exists
Its like... a ghost
Somebody should make a better Geist.
Nirolak (this is my suspicion...)
That... just might be it.
Hmm, unexpected as in which franchise it'll be? Or maybe it'll be something that is done through an unexpected collaboration, like maybe having a degree of integration with stuff like Facebook? I've got an Android tablet finally so I'll be sure to check it out and hope to see the beginnings of a more improved, connected Nintendo gaming experience.

Sakamoto is not working on the mobile games tho.
Then what IS he working on? The last 2 games he worked on, Game & Wario and RH The Best didn't do so hot.
RH The Best is nearing half a million in Japan. And before that was the western version of Tomodachi Life which exceeded expectations.
I miss Iwata too, but in all fairness this mobile deal was done under Iwata's leaderships.

A proper Rhythm Heaven would work really well on mobile. Tap/hold/flick are the only inputs required.
Do like, first two songs are free, then you can pick and choose them for like $2 a pop.

Mario Maker Construction Kit. You make levels but need to buy the game on Wii U in order to play them.
Wishful thinking, lol. I want to be able to work on levels on my lunch break.
