Nintendo Announces Plans for Mobile Games b5z3z
Classic Nintendo games Donkey Kong will now be playable on smart phones and tablets! Nintendo President and CEO Satoru Iwata announced that after years and years of hoping, Nintendo is getting into mobile gaming. The video game company was reluctant in the past, but says they are ready to develop and operate software that will bolster the brand! Now, they haven’t said if these games will be part of the free-to-play model (of if they’ll have a buy-in-game option like Candy Crush), but at the very least, we may get to hear Navi’s “Hey, listen!” without ing the text noise!

Any chance we could get them in the next version of the game?
