Nintendo delays Animal Crossing again, won't share sales data on Super Mario Run

Every time a company dabbles in a new market, problems are bound to occur. Even entertainment giants with years of experience are no exception, and Nintendo proved it. The company's mobile gaming debut was a bit shaky, with Super Mario Run not achieving the success it was expected to and the other two titles, planned for release last fall, being delayed.

And while we'll get Fire Emblem: Heroes on mobile this Thursday, fans of the Animal Crossing franchise will have to wait a bit more than expected. During Nintendo's third-quarter earnings call, the company announced that the still untitled mobile version of Animal Crossing will come in the next financial year, which means between April 2017 and March 2018. An exact date was not specified, but if we had to guess, we'd say that the game will be released sooner rather than later.
