Last week, Famitsu published the first entry in its series of interviews with Nintendo about the NES Classic Edition / Famicom Mini (and SNES Classic Edition / Super Famicom Mini). The second section was put online a few days ago. Just like the previous entry, some interesting tidbits were shared.

Similar to what was said in the last interview, Nintendo again noted that very few staff believed that NES Classic Edition / Famicom Mini would be a hit initially. Since Switch wasn’t too far down the road, most staff at the company weren’t really paying attention to the classic hardware. However, Yamato – a former developer and now a manager of the sales department – said that it would make fans happy. He also strongly suggested to make a TV commercial. But since the product itself was met with stock shortages, they could barely air ads.

Just like in North America, the third Japanese Splatfest in Splatoon 2 has ended. We now have the results for the event that had power going up against endurance.

Team Endurance ended up taking the event. Despite being less popular, there was a slight edge – just a single percentage point – in both Solo and Team battles. That’s ultimately what propelled them to victory by a score of 2-1.
