Nintendo develops the Dr. Mario World game with Japanโs ultra-popular mobile messaging app Line. The game was launched in 2019.
In early 2020, Nintendo launched another multiplayer mobile game called Mario Kart Tour. It has been downloaded more than 150 million times and has seen high earnings. Till now, Mario Kart Tour is the most successful mobile game. Apart from this, till February 2020, Fire Emblem Heroes had earned up to $656 million.
