I really can't stand nor do I understand the mobile phone game craze. Do I have games on my phone? Yes. But it's mainly free shit like solitaire types of games to help pass time in between work or traveling when I can't bring an actual gaming device.
Whatever floats your boat I guess but Nintendo trying to get into phone apps (to me) is a joke. I would much prefer them to make a retro themed phone that accepts 3DS carts or some shit like that. I would drop apple in a heartbeat then.

The microtransactions would most likely be for extra lives. You start out each day with X amount of lives, and you could wait around for more or pay X for instant extra lives.

There are some really, REALLY cool iOS/droid games, but for the most part, I agree. Just a bunch of crap that's entertaining for about 3 minutes, and this Mario game is just another "run" game, of which there are dozens upon dozens. Leave it to Nintendo to be late to the party

The only mobile phone games i have are all ones I payed for. You Must Build a Boat, 10000000, and Desert Golf, Lara Croft GO, Hitman GO, and Deus Ex GO. Other than that nope. Pokemon Go? lol not even a game, Miitomo? beyond trash.
IMO these are the only phone games you will ever need. Plus not microtransactions since they all cost money.
RealPlumpBox:
Oh so no micro transactions will be in this according to Nintendo. It will be a free to start and a one time fee to buy.
