One topic that came up during Nintendo’s 82nd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders is working conditions for its employees. President Shuntaru Furukawa and Shigeru Miyamoto both responded.
Furukawa mentioned that Nintendo has “a flexible working schedule” as well as policies “that encourage the use of paid vacation.” That’s along with “improvements in benefits provided to temporary employees” and “a more flexible dress code” that started this year. Furukawa ended his response by stating Nintendo is “discussing strategies to promote the active involvement of women in the workplace.”

Nintendo’s 82nd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders took place a few days ago, and one investor decided to ask about the possibility of revisiting F-Zero and series that haven’t seen a sequel in a long time. President Furukawa responded to the question, as did the company’s Shinya Takahashi.
Furukawa’s comment was short but clear. He mentioned: “Realistically speaking, it would be difficult to develop remakes or sequels for all Nintendo titles you have requested, but we’re extremely glad and grateful that our fans continue to look forward to them.”
During Nintendo’s 82nd Annual General Meeting of Shareholders last week, the company was asked about what plan it has in place in the event of a natural disaster such as an earthquake.
President Shuntaro Furukawa responded, noting that Nintendo has “a documented response plan and have implemented various proactive measures so that we can restore operations as quickly as possible.” Those that are curious how the Big N would respond regarding titles in the works might be interested to hear that “backups are regularly made for critical information like the data for games currently in development.”
Furukawa’s full words are as follows:
