Iwata reiterates that Nintendo’s games won’t be considered for smart devices

Nintendo president Satoru Iwata is remaining steadfast in his stance against bringing the company’s titles to mobile platforms.

As reported by Bloomberg, Iwata recently reiterated that Nintendo won’t consider releasing its games on smart devices. “If we follow current games on smartphones and we just bring our current games into smart devices, it won’t lead to the future,” he said.

Although Nintendo is opposed to making smartphone versions of its games, the company isn’t against such devices entirely. Nintendo hopes to leverage hardware like phones to attract consumers to its own systems.
