While Iwata's widely reported talk at GDC in San Francisco this week unquestionably called the present state of play in the games business accurately, it's tough to agree with his conclusions - or the stark warning they seemed to present.
At the heart of Iwata’s tenure at Nintendo was a philosophy of listening.
In 2015, Nintendo CEO Satoru Iwata sadly passed away. Dear friend and EarthBound creator Shigesato Itoi compiled his musings as a tribute.
Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa recently sat down with Nikkei to discuss his approach to leading the company through the current Switch era, as well as what influences past presidents like Satoru Iwata and Hiroshi Yamauchi had on him.
nothing wrong with him per say but he just feels kinda lifeless compared to Iwata and lacks the tough guy almost Yakuza vibe Yamauchi gave off
This guy is a penny pincher and has no love of gaming. It is obvious in the half assed ports he is pushing. Iwata we miss you.
They're doooomed!, I tell ya! Dooomed!!!
Doom Doom Do Do Dooom.... http://www.youtube.com/watc...
Iwata's haircut is the greatest threat.
Hey ive seen this guy in the japanese version of the beetles.
Anyways Nintendo will have great success with the 3DS but they wont sell as much as the DS because mainly due to its high price tag. The DS when it first came out was only 150€ which gave Nintendo an extreme edge over the competetion the PSP which launched at 250€ Now that the 2 are going to be at around the same price there will be some changes in the market.
However i still think that Nintendo will come out on top mainly due to its fanbase. But they will take a hit in market share because of the expensive price and being priced so close to the NGP.
Nintendo have nothing to wrorry about they wouldnt have sold 90 million wii's and 150 million ds's this is proof Android is steeling ps3/360 gamers not Nintendo gamers and NGP is dead before it launches expect poor NGP sales as 3DS will have too many games by then Saint Row drive bye/MGS 3D/Both RE games/F1 2011/Conduit2/N-Space game too much NGP wont stand a chance plus Super mario 3D/Pikimin 3D/Mario Kart 3D ect the 3DS will sell 10 times the NGP and make smart phone gaming obsolete.
uh y should we expect low psp2 sales? i dont care for psp but to say the sales r gona be low is silly
