For the IP expansion business, we will work mainly through partnerships with other companies to expand the number of people who have regular access to Nintendo IP in areas other than video games. Through character merchandise, theme parks, and other such business licensing business initiatives and initiatives in the video content business, such as film, we aim for consumers to receive the games and worlds Nintendo creates as more familiar entertainment experience.
