(Before It's News)

Last month, Nintendo and DeNA revealed that their first mobile game developed together would be called Miitomo. While it won’t be coming out till March 2016, the announcement left many questions unanswered, and apart from wondering exactly what the gameplay in Miitomo would be like, we were also left wondering how much the game would cost. Well, that particular question has been addressed by DeNA CEO Isao Moriyasu who confirmed that Miitomo and future Nintendo mobile games will be free-to-play.

That news isn’t particularly surprising given DeNA’s background in working on free-to-play titles, however it does beg the question of whether Nintendo would ever release a mobile game that featured one of its iconic franchises in a free-to-play mobile game. We know that Nintendo will be using some of its more “recognizable” IP in future mobile games, but we’re going to go out on a limb and assume that the use of the IP itself will be the only resemblance we’ll get to the games that we love – think match-3 Mario Bros. Still, we could be completely wrong – let’s see what Nintendo and DeNA have up their sleeves.

What do you think about the fact the Nintendo mobile games will be free-to-play? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
