We are also bringing back the nostalgic Famicom and NES home consoles in a palm-sized version for this holiday season. Nintendo Classic Mini Family Computer will launch in Japan on November 10, with the Nintendo Entertainment System: NES Classic Edition launching in the U.S. and Europe on November 11. These miniature systems connect directly to a TV and come with 30 pre-installed classic titles, allowing you to play without swapping out cartridges. The original consoles have been recreated at palm size with unwavering attention to detail, not just in the systems themselves, but also in the controllers and packaging. We have hand-picked 30 pre-installed titles to spark the nostalgia of all the generations that enjoyed the original Famicom and NES. You can save the data at any point during your game play, which means you can try legacy titles more readily.

When developing these products, the main audience we had in mind was the Famicom/NES generation: adults who fondly recall their experiences playing these systems and want to take a trip back to this early era of video games. However, we also designed these as products that will allow new generations to create fun new memories in the world of Famicom/NES. Since the announcement, we have received a fantastic response from consumers in the Famicom/NES
generation, proving the emotional appeal of these products. We also see the nostalgic interest in these products as an opportunity to draw consumers’ attention to our new games as well.

This information comes from Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima…

We released Miitomo in March this year, and it will soon reach 15 million unique users. This title has not been impactful from a profit perspective, but the trends have been largely according to our expectations.

As our initial foray into the smart device business, Miitomo has focused on bringing Nintendo’s entertainment to as many people as possible across the world. Another main goal of Miitomo has been to let consumers connect with their friends. We are making preparations to allow friend relationships from Miitomo to be carried over to Super Mario Run. Since Super Mario Run has a mode where you can compete with other players, this means that active communication with your family and friends in Miitomo will lead to even more fun moments in Super Mario Run.

In order to enjoy Miitomo with your family and friends,we are planning a major update soon that will completely transform Miitomo by making communication with your friends even more fun. This update will introduce a unique message feature that lets you use your Mii character’s facial expressions and voice to send any message you want in expressive one-on-one communication. We are also planning additional features.
