>I personally do not use a computer, a cell phone or a smartphone.
>that first question

>Question 10
Is there something equivalent for other companies such as EA and ubisoft?
I find this very interesting.
HOW DOES THE MAGIC BOX WORK
only the Nintendo ones are funny
last year there was an angry guy who said he doesnt know anything about videogames, consider them a waste of time, and only invested in Nintendo because he liked the name of the company.
as a recording or in written text?
Yeah what the fuck is that. He actually didn't answer it like a pussy though.
Says it all, really.
>First, regarding the fact that there are no women among the candidate directors, let me state that we choose directors who we believe can best help steer our company regardless of gender, age, or nationality.
It's logical, ergo offensive.
It's also more or less illegal in America.
I'm blind and stupid, where did it say new Mario kart dlc?
>All of the candidate directors are men, and considering that women make up half of the world, I doubt such a board could fully grasp what women want and manage to broaden the market. Further, I personally do not use a computer, a cell phone or a smartphone. I wonder how your plans take into consideration the diversity of users, including such people like myself.
>a woman that isn't social
>but spouts MUH SOCIAL ISSUES bullshit
REAL FUCKING WINNER, REALLY ON THE BALL AS FAR AS WHAT THE MARKET WANTS
GET HER THE FUCK OUTTA HERE
Right below the part of the NX power
Question 8 is something interesting to note. Basically (to the best of my understanding), Nintendo has laid the basic ground work to be able to expand into the field of production and selling medical devices. They say this isn't a focus now, but it seems like this could be something eventually. Any thoughts on this?
I don't really understand how they will do this.
Do they plan to sell regular products or Nintendo-themed products?
Where does it say that, what page? I'm ctrl+Fing and I don't see shit about that.
Gives a whole new meaning to IV breeding in Pokemon.
I assume this is like Namco makes plates and shit.
"Hey, we just made top of the line pedometers for a videogame...let's make millions by taking them to the Healthcare market where people buy useless shit and get screwed over all the time."
Where the fuck does it mention nx power
They were extremely proud of the Gamepad. That's what most of their R&D for Wii U was spent on. The hardware in the console itself is just yet another updated version of the previous one. The gamepad is what they thought would sell the console as a whole. I actually liked the gamepad, although the left stick refuses to work properly anymore so i don't know what the fuck to do
He's shitposting, the NX was never brought up.
Not entirely certain. Either way, seems like just another way to make money for a company that already has the internal infrastructure in place to manage production of such goods.
Maybe they bought up some promising patents/technology? Last I heard they had a machine that improved your health by monitoring your sleeping habits, imagine if that tech made diagnosing and/or curing something like sleep apnea much easier or cheaper.
ok. fuckin hell i got excited
Don't forget that one shareholder who said they were appalled that meeting time was wasted on "children's toys" and asked when they could eventually buy Nintendo-branded food, like nintendo bread or candy.
japan is an old boy's island nation.
>Question 1
There is literally a shitton of why and wrongs in that question. If that person makes a company and decides to put (a shitton) of girls because of diversity or some stupid shit like that, I bet that company will go bankrupt quickly. That bastard doesn't know the importance of personality and skills of an individual in a business.
I swear if that person lives in the US, my view on that country is going bad even more and I'm very afraid on what will happen to that country. The negative things is having a big margin with the positive things and it seems like they are winning right now.
It was brought up a few times, just nothing about its performance.
microsoft licensed kinect technology to medical science and it paid off quite well for them, it led to some new ideas about conducting robotic limbs to do surgery and shit like that.
i assume some of nintendo's tech may have medical applications or something, it happens sometimes
You should be able to at least call a toll free Nintendo line and see if you can get some options. Maybe you can buy a replacement one.
Also consider opening the gamepad and seeing if maybe some dirt or something is messing it up.
As for the gamepad's market appeal, Nintendo wanted to do tablets since they felt tablets would feel novel and become popular, which was correct.
The problem is Nintendo didn't get their system out of the door fast enough and Apple's beat them, not to mention their tablet based marketing ended up convincing people that it was a tablet addon for their wii, so since people weren't interested in the tablet, they never became informed.
Until fairly recently (ie. until Iwata passed away), they'd been pushing towards releasing some form of quality-of-life device that they never really disclosed many real details of. I'm fairly sure at the last investor meeting they mentioned they'd halted development.
I'd guess this is a repurposing of whatever R&D they got done on it.
No user I'm pretty sure they're just making mario themed bandaids. I know because my mom's husband works at the bandaid factory.
"it's important that we do not overextend by putting an excessive amount of content in our games"
- Miyamoto 2016
It's on the bottom of page 5.
Read this meeting. They mentioned it again.
Yeah, I saw that. It's worrisome, but BotW definitely has a shitton of content and its still wrapping up development.
>"We are looking into the kitchen products market for such people, we would like a higher quality of production for the sandwiches being produced".
Look how long it is taking them to make Zelda U, they already stated it has over 100 staff and a credits sequence of 300+ people. to make one large wii u game.
He is right you fucking faggot, when all you care about is random content the game gets bloated by features and becomes a trainwreck, just look at Duke Nukem Forever, they implemented tons of ideas and the result was a fucking mess.
the amount of features was not even close to the biggest of that game's problems
>, but BotW definitely has a shitton of content an
Copy pasted 'dungeons' and a lifeless overworld is not a shittone of content.
stfu
>ive played the demo version and i know what im talking about
Glad you agree
Not videogames so I dont give a shit.
let us dream
That's fair enough. Nintendo can't survive if they always try to release a game the size of Xenoblade X or Breath of the Wild. Those types of games should be released every 2-3 years or so. A Kirby game only needs to be so big after all.
>a company that has made anime and videogames for the past 30 years has a bunch of retarded social justice warriors, non-gamers, and people who don't even use technology as their top shareholders
Miyamoto:
>In striking that balance, while it's important that we do not overextend by putting an excessive amount of content in our games, the only solution is how to make software that sells well.
Pure cancer
>There will be big hits somewhere in our business, and they support the games that fail and allow us to take on other challenges.
Pure chemo
Why is he such a bipolar madman? He ruins everything and then he saves everything, just to ruin everything 5 seconds later.
Why? Does the truth hurt?
The first line is in regards to feature glut, which can definitely be a problem, and not even just in the final product. We hear about stuff getting cut all the time in production. The time and money spent making that stuff doesn't come back.
So what he's saying is, they're going to have more concrete planning for their development cycles in the future, and stick to those plans instead of going off the rails.
Is it better than what they do now? From a financial perspective, probably. How it'll affect the playability of their games, we will see.
...
Glad to see you only read one question. It was literally one singular person. And no these aren't all top shareholders, some are even self-described fans who don't give a shit about the finances.
I read all 5 pages you fucking goddamn retard. maybe you should try it too sometime.
Nearly every single question falls into one of the 3 categories I listed in
absolute comedy gold right from the beginning
Nintendo shareholders: Living in the 1980s

Problem is they barely take risks so the games that fail are just games that were doomed from the outset like CAPTAIN TOAD's TREASURE TRACKER
