Not “Really Fixated on Our Consoles” - Focus To SWITCH to Mobile Generating Revenue Streams!
We all knew this 'dark day' would be coming, since Iwata sadly passed away, whenever there is change of the 'top brass' of a major gaming company, the focus changes, the same thing occurred with Sega and Dreamcast, with Nintendo it just took a while longer, plus they had to get the Switch out, but even tho its now close to reaching their 20 Million Sales Target, it might be their Last Console Ever.
You can read thru the full recent interview on Japanese News Outlet 'Nikkei', afterwards we love to here your thoughts, comments, rants about the new focus big 'N' is sadly aiming towards!“We aren’t really fixated on our consoles,” Furukawa told Nikkei as translated by Nintendo Everything. “At the moment we’re offering the uniquely developed Nintendo Switch and its software – and that’s what we’re basing how we deliver the ‘Nintendo experience’ on. That being said, technology changes. We’ll continue to think flexibly about how to deliver that experience as time goes on.”
The CEO added, “It has been over 30 years since we started developing consoles. Nintendo’s history goes back even farther than that, and through all the struggles that they faced the only thing that they thought about was what to make next. In the long-term, perhaps our focus as a business could shift away from home consoles – flexibility is just as important as ingenuity.”
