NintendObserver’s select content on Nintendo investor relations.
"We would never allow a situation to occur that could jeopardize Nintendo’s relationship with its consumers."
"Nintendo is even more passionate about and highly motivated to continue its dedicated game system business."
"There is no guarantee that effective business models of today will continue working in the future."
"We aim to target the global market."
"It would be great if the two companies could jointly invent a brand-new business model."
"A variety of media have written that Nintendo is cornered a number of times, but I do not think we were cornered at all."
"We will only develop and offer products with which consumers feel comfortable and satisfied."
"Assignment of roles between the two companies will vary for each game title."
Here's the official English script of this week's biggest announcement in its entirety.
"I think that the demand itself for entertainment is increasing rather than decreasing."
"We have to take the approach that encourages consumers to retrieve information at their own will."
"We have never ever lost our passion for video games and will continue to make them."
"Our goal of the fiscal year ending March 2017 will be to make the video game business robust."
Four development divisions. Hardware: Takeda. First-party: Miyamoto. Second-party: Takahashi. System: Iwata.
"In addition, our development team has been testing various forms of amiibo other than plastic figures."
Digital is growing ever strong.
Nintendo had no idea amiibo would perform so well as to become a ground for scalpers.
The new games in the franchises completely outsold their previous iterations.
Given the "Same-Generation Hypothesis," I think we might see a comeback of GameCube IPs from Nintendo this generation.
The growth is real.
