Details from Nintendo’s latest shareholders meeting – Mario Kart 8 sales top 2 million

Nintendo shareholders suggesting Nintendo make casino games to teach players to how to play casino games, on a family friendly console. Let's get little Susie or Timmy gambling real early, that's a great idea. :gonk:

Q5: I want to suggest large screens for children. Also, casinos will apparently be legalized in some places, and many people don’t know how to play casino games. How about games to teach them?

A5: Thank you for your suggestions. We will take them into consideration.

Anyone hoping for Nintendo's shareholders to install someone they prefer to Iwata should keep in mind how batshit those shareholders can be.

"Casinos will be in more places. You should make casino games," is perfect logic!

I know it didn't happen but after they asked this question I'm picturing Iwata hitting a button on a control panel and electrocuting them to death like Blofeld does in James Bond then just smiling "please understand the answer is no next question"

I wuv your brains.

what is even going on here:


Q11: I want to hold stock for about 10 years. I have misgivings about turning this company into a medical device maker. I want to ask Miyamoto-san how future games will be played. A11: Miyamoto: Entertainment alone cannot restore earnings, high sales are also needed. The rise and fall of market cycles are intense. Thirty years ago we had loans, but now we have large cash reserves. I don’t know about 10 years from now, but I feel that accepting smartphone hand-me-downs for less than our cheapest games would be a threat. New forms of amusement are always being born, so I think we’ll make do. Takeda: We deal with amusement, not life necessities. We’ve gone through many market cycles. We create products that make use of hardware technology, ideas, art, psychology, and so on. We want to do our best even in the different form of health. This is one form of amusement. It’s not that we are aiming for a health business.

It's been going on since the Wii U launched. It only applies to the deluxe bundle, though. Since that's all you can buy now unless you get that Skylanders bundle, I don't think that matters much.
