Nintendo felt it was important to launch Mario on mobile before Animal Crossing, Fire Emblem

GN Version 5.0

Coming from a Nintendo rep...

"Based on a variety of factors, we felt it was most appropriate for Super Mario Run to launch ahead of these other two apps. Our Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem titles for mobile will launch before the end of our fiscal year, which ends on March 31, 2017."

Looks like Mario is the reason Animal Crossing and Fire Emblem's mobile outings got bumped, even if Nintendo didn't come right out and say that.
