Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa expects "remarkable results" from Mario Kart Tour, based on its performance since it launched last month.
Speaking to the company's investors, Furukawa said that Mario Kart's mobile debut has "has gotten off to a very good start, even compared to our previous mobile applications."
He added: "Continuing on from Super Mario Run, which more than 300 million consumers are enjoying, I think we can expect remarkable results from Mario Kart Tour."
Furukawa did not specify whether these "remarkable results" will be evident in both revenue and downloads, but Nintendo is on record stating its disappointment in the money it made from Super Mario Run.
According to Furukawa, Mario Kart Tour's "earnings are off to a good start," due to a combination of "randomised items" and the "Gold Pass subscription." He also stated his belief that multiplayer will "make it an attractive application that will be enjoyed by consumers in the long-term."
