Nintendo on Fortnite Switch success, believes cloud-based games from other publishers “is a very positive thing”

Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa weighed in on Fortnite’s success on Switch during the company’s most recent financial briefing. Thanks to strong momentum, the game has been downloaded by close to half of all Switch systems worldwide. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Fortnite is doing the best in Japan, but “is also growing in Japan.”
While addressing the same investor, Furukawa said that cloud-based games from third-parties “is a very positive thing.” He believes it can also have a good impact on expanding the user base since “there are some titles that probably could not be offered on Nintendo Switch any other way.”
