A few days ago, a new Nintendo mobile game was released. In the American App Store, the project soared to the first place in downloads faster than Harry Potter: Wizards Unite. However, he lost his leadership much faster.

Nintendo aims to reduce user costs in its mobile games. She convinces her partners of the need to change the game mechanics in such a way that players resort to donation less often.

Nintendo has a new mobile partner. The company announced that it is developing and launching its next game for iOS and Android not with DeNA, but with LINE.

The Japanese mobile messenger developer company Line has introduced the Line Game Platform for mobile game creators. It will allow you to fight copycat games, analyzes user behavior and has a number of other features.

The game Line: Disney Tsum Tsum has gained 50 million downloads. This is reported by the company LINE.

The LINE company, which owns the messenger of the same name, together with the Korean mobile game developer LongTu Korea will launch the Lantu Games game studio. The information appeared in LINE’s press release.

Revenue of LINE Corporation, the owner of the messenger of the same name, decreased by 1% compared to the previous quarter. This became known from the financial report of the Japanese company.

Since its launch in July 2014, the Disney Tsum Tsum game has brought its creators $300 million.

The number of downloads of Line: Disney Tsum Tsum worldwide has exceeded 40 million. This is reported by the Venturebeat resource.

Tokyo-based startup TransLimit received 300 million yen or about $2.8 million. Line Ventures, United, East Ventures, Skyland Ventures, and Genuine Startups acted as investors.

Japanese companies LINE and Gree have signed an agreement. They will create a division of Epic Voyage, Inc., which will promote mobile games on the LINE messenger platform.

The Japanese messenger continues to expand into world markets. Indonesia is already in the pocket, where Line already has more than 30 million registered users.

The other day, Jan Koum reported that the MAU of the WhatsApp messenger exceeded 600 million. The CEO and co-founder of the app is sure that his brainchild has left far behind all rivals. Is it so? Let’s try to figure it out.

Disney together with the popular Asian messenger LINE launched a joint project.  The game of the genre “three in a row” occupied the top lines of the charts. The popularity of the application forced LINE to release plush Disney Tsum Tsum characters.

There are many copies, but the real LINE Rangers is one. A mobile hit in the tower defense genre recently broke the record – 20 million downloads. It happened right on the day of the “birth” of the project: the game was released exactly six months ago. The app has managed to reach the top of the AppStore charts in Singapore, Taiwan, Thailand, Laos, Indonesia and Japan.
