Nintendo to assist Japanese devs with overseas 3DS software distribution
Posted on 11 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
The 3DS has many, many great games. In some cases, some of these titles have stayed in Japan.
Nintendo did recently announce that it will be publishing Bravely Default in the west, a high-quality title that 3DS owners have long been looking forward to.
The Big N’s efforts with Japanese software releases in North America and Europe won’t stop there. In its latest financial report, Nintendo said that it is “planning to more actively support the Japanese software developers in distributing their key titles overseas.”
Nintendo’s goals in full for the 3DS are as follows:
For “Nintendo 3DS,” in order to set in the overseas markets the same trend as in the Japanese market, we will concentrate on proactively releasing key Nintendo titles. “Animal Crossing: New Leaf,” a hit title which contributed to sales growth in Japan, will be released in the U.S. and Europe in June 2013, and the latest titles from the Pokémon series, “Pokémon X Version/Pokémon Y Version,” will be released globally in October 2013. In addition, we are planning to more actively support the Japanese software developers in distributing their key titles overseas. In Japan, we continuously strive to stimulate the market by releasing new titles such as “Tomodachi Collection,” launched on April 18, 2013 as a sequel to the popular “Nintendo DS” version of “Tomodachi Collection.” Furthermore, in overseas markets, we will more actively attempt to boost the sales rate of the downloadable format of packaged software, a sales method that we started last summer, in order to increase the number of new sales opportunities and improve our profitability.
