"Of course, Mr. Miyamoto, our Creative Fellow, is also supporting the business for smart devices from a company-wide perspective."
"Consumers playing Miitomo are gradually creating their own Nintendo Accounts."
"We selected two titles of different categories and IP to reach as many consumers as possible."
"The positive aspect of lowering the projected sales of Wii U hardware to 800,000 units is that it allows us to focus on the Nintendo 3DS system."
"It will be important to release titles that are different from the ones we have released this fiscal year, so we will make efforts to provide a strong lineup."
"We have not yet announced all of the Nintendo 3DS software for the next fiscal year, but we are proceeding with development, including major titles."
"The ideas of our young employees are also key to our ability to transition to the next generation and to continue to produce exciting ideas."
"We want to have everyone become familiar with our IP by reaching as many people as possible from an early age within their daily lives."
"To achieve Nintendo-like profits, one important factor will be establishing a solid launch for our NX and smart device businesses."
"I would like to suggest two areas. One area is our NX business, and another is our business for smart devices."
"We have not only NX, but also the Nintendo 3DS and Wii U platforms, and we are of course considering ways to link smart device applications with games for these platforms as well."
"We are also considering developing titles for smart devices that are not at all tied to any games on our existing dedicated video game systems."
"It is imperative that we put forward different play experiences and originality whenever we introduce people to our new IP."
"We do plan to keep coordinating with Facebook and Twitter."
"We are continuously discussing how we can have young, talented people play active roles in our organization."
"Miitomo is one of the approximately five titles we said we would release by the end of March 2017."
"We have been making various preparations for NX so that it can grow into our core business after its launch."
"I believe that we are now working in the direction of easier software development by means of this integration."
"We believe it is necessary to communicate about the application at least about two months before its release."
"We see that our smart device business has the potential to become this next big thing."
