Nintendo Switch Online has been going for three years strong. We’ve seen the introduction of classic games on the console, new titles like Tetris 99, and opportunities to try out certain titles through Game Trials.

Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Nintendo and esports tend to come up quite often. Although the company hosts tournaments from time to time, it hasn’t fully embraced the competitive scene.
During Nintendo’s Annual General Meeting of Shareholders last week, president Shuntaro Furukawa was asked about Nintendo’s plans for esports moving forward. He did acknowledge that competition can help to “share the gameplay experience with a broader audience” while also continuing to generate interest for games/characters. More tournaments will be held in the future, but there’s currently no word on specifics.
Furukawa said:

During Nintendo’s 81st Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, one investor brought up media reports that say the company’s games don’t appear to fully take gender into account.
President Shuntaro Furukawa responded, mentioning how Nintendo feels “that diversity, including gender diversity, is very important.” He added that in terms of features for a particular game, “we must make decisions by taking into consideration a wide variety of factors, and we may not always be able to meet every request.”
Below are Furukawa’s full words:

Meledandri’s addition to Nintendo may seem surprising to some. He’s the CEO over at Illumination – the studio behind the films Despicable Me and Minions.
During Nintendo’s 81st Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, president Shuntaro Furukawa and representative director/fellow Shigeru Miyamoto both weighed in on what Meledandri brings to the table. Read up on their comments below.
