Iwata on 3DS sales, appealing to female gamers in Japan, overseas hurdles
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 1 Comment
Following the announcement of Nintendo’s latest financial results, president Satoru Iwata held a presentation and talked about things like the performance of its hardware on the market, use of IP, and more. Iwata also commented on how “the key to revitalizing the Nintendo 3DS business in Japan is by intensifying its appeal to even more generations of female consumers.”
Iwata elaborated on this topic during the Q&A portion of Nintendo’s briefing last week. The female demographic of 3DS users is higher compared to other platforms, but since the days of the DS, it’s “shifted toward the male side to some extent”. Iwata now feels that “the challenge for the Japanese market is to be able to appeal to female consumers with ages ranging from young children to women over a certain age and even seniors.”
In the west, Iwata noted that Nintendo hasn’t been able to overcome the challenge of consumer attention focusing on home consoles. However, with the New 3DS launch and release high-quality software, Nintendo “started to see that with good software and hardware offerings we will almost be able to overcome that hurdle.”

Unofficial translations came up over the past few days regarding what Nintendo has in store for its new system codenamed “NX”. Nintendo has now put up a translation of its own, which has a slightly fuller response.
Of course, CEO Satoru Iwata made sure to withhold major information, but he did say that it’s not intended to be “a simple ‘replacement’ for Nintendo 3DS or Wii U.” Nintendo is also “taking into consideration various factors, including the playing environments that differ by country.”
