Nah, what they said is that they expect 3DS to achieve an LTD of 70M soon.
Nintendo forecast for 3DS HW sales for the FY ending March 2018 is about 72M.
3DS final LTD is probably going to be 75M+.
Isnt the standard conversation rate less than 5%? The last time I heard about it was 7%, which is above average but not what Ninty wanted. (>>10%)
Now, the "New entretainment experiences" quote makes a lot of sense. Context!
Given how much people clamor for Nintendo's older catalog, yea (Especially if they boost the resolution)
Then hold on to your butts for the official transkation and the corresponding shutstorm that will erupt.
People already made a huge fuss on the motion controls on Odyssey...
Yeah, I think it's Japan Only tho
PSO2? Did we know that? I don't recall hearing it before, but I might have missed it.
In case anyone comes back for receipts, I represent the line with no comment.
来年以降も継続的に新しい遊び⽅を提案することで、Nintendo Switch が Wii と同様に幅広いお客様に受け⼊れられるようにしていきたいと思います。
This is in response to a question on Software lineup strategy (Q12).

On the Switch userbase thing, I remember the last time it came up, and a possible caveat was on the point that this was about the person who had the 'strongest desire' for the Switch, not just who actually plays it. So a family where the father is the biggest of the Nintendo nerds is represented solely by that father, even if they've got three daughters and a wife.
I admittedly found the breakdown of titles popular in each region to be interesting:
Somewhat what was already suspected, mind - the Zelda performs more strongly in the West while Splatoon 2 dominates Japan, but Mario Kart 8 is fairly consistent globally. ARMS meanwhile is about on par with 1-2 Switch.
I'm honestly surprised that 1-2-Switch has outsold ARMS in two regions. Uggh.
Is it the one where he says that next year there would be a bigger focus on alternative play schemes to attract other demographics? That can hardly cause a shitstorm for being so obvious right?
Because I like chaos, I there this into Google translate
That's not as bad as I was expecting. They have been experimenting with VR, and Wii Fit was popular. The add-on market has seemingly dried up though, so i dont think they'll goo that route. Maybe new joycon types like people imagined pre launch?

Hmmm translated on babelfish and still none the wiser.
I would like to accept Switch Nintendo Wii as well as to a wide range of customers to suggest how to play next year and beyond continually new.
Europe was a mistake, it's nothing but trash.
(Actually I got it for €35 from Germany, ganz geil, so that may play a part here if other regions were more expensive)
Would the price be low enough to even make this viable, though? I can't imagine uptake would be too high at current prices. It's a nice concept regardless; it would be nice to see it come to fruition.
I still want Gamecube shaped joycons with analog triggers. I know the Gamecube adapter is compatible with the Swtich, but that doesn't really work if I wanted to play Smash or (potentially) Gamecube VC games on the go in handheld mode.
if they ditch some of the internal components, maybe. the IR pointer is useless anyway, NFC can stay, maybe remove the motion controls depending on the purpose, and HD rumble can stay. the Joycons are kind of an absurd markup to begin with, so there's some wiggle room for a lower price
I don't think motion controls will ever be removed at this point.
which is why I said depending on the purpose. for a more specifically designed joycon, motions controls can probably be removed as the button layout itself could limit its usage in other games
A lot of Nintendo's game have motion gestures however. The fact that they put them on the Pro Controller signifies to me that they want motion controls to be a new standard, and I can get behind the idea. Gyro aiming has the potential to really close the gap between controllers and mouse + keyboard.
no, what I mean is, joycons that are highly specialized. not theoretically agnostic controllers. going back to the image I posted before, you cant use these with Zelda or Mario, but the games they were purposely made for. that along could drive the costs up or down depending on what the controller is intended to do.
Q&A with Kimishima is now oficially translated. Im still a junior so I cant make a thread.
