Photoshop him into Ness's outfit? Or better outfits of various Nintendo characters

For some reason, when I first saw a picture of him his open-mouthed expression and center-parted hair reminded me of this gem from the old site:

Some of these games would be weird... OoT and MM and DK64 have massively upgraded versions made and the original versions run at like 15 FPS. Super Smash Bros. and Mario Kart 64 have had wildly superior sequels.

And those are like 5 of the biggest games on that list.

And no Goldeneye would get called out by every casual player interested in an N64 Classic.
Star Fox is on the SNES Classic. None of what you said matters to the people who buy these aside from the lack of Rare games that would pose licensing issues.

Donkey Kong 64 has never been upgraded or enhanced. If you're referring to the performance increases in the Virtual Console version, it's reasonable to expect NERD's N64 emulator to run the game at least as well as NST's N64 emulator did.

why was this so underwelming, aint these things usually exciting/?
Not always. Depends on the timing. If the meeting falls within a window where they are close to announcing more details about something big, they might highlight it first for shareholders. Otherwise it can be rather boring. They have one every quarter, so it can't always be exciting.

So this is obviously different to the investors meeting, where stuff like Mario Kart Mobile was revealed and that sort of stuff....cool
thank you :)

The Financial Results Briefings like the one were Mario Kart Tour was announced are attended by analysts and institutional investors, and sometimes have new information on products.

This is an General Meeting of Shareholders, where individual shareholders (common people) attend, and deals mostly with corporate matters.

Well, Kimishima had a nice run...
Will be interesting to see how the new president answers the next Q&A, since Kimishima also answered them differently from Iwata.

I don't think Bomberman is at 1m.

Fire Emblem Warriors definitely is though. Koei Tecmo confirmed it in their quarterly report in April.

I'd guess Skyrim and Mario + Rabbids are the other two. Tropical Freeze is probably almost there as well.

Q10. Every year's general meeting is after E3, so a video is played. The people overseas look like they're having fun playing, but why can't we stockholders play? Can you provide time to play after the general stockholder's meeting?

A10. Thank you for your request; we will take it under advisement.

business as usual at the stockholders meeting

Actually, they have let shareholders play in the past, usually in years where a new console is revealed and playable at E3.

This was at the General Meeting of Shareholders in June 2006 at Nintendo Headquarters:

Also, if someone wants to know how the General Meeting of Shareholders looks...


This was when it used to be held at the seventh floor conference room of Nintendo Headquarters*:

I wonder what meetings were like when Yamauchi was president

like, were shareholders too scared of yakuza retaliation to ask questions?

Remember when one shareholder complained about getting lost on the way to the shareholders meeting?


Q3 said:
I got terribly lost coming here today. Every time I come here, I feel that you should take into consideration where many of the shareholders attending are coming from and that you may want to consider offering us some conveniences like a courtesy bus from JR Kyoto Station. As I feel this is rather an inconvenient place to visit by subway or by bus, I'd like you to consider more about this sort of thing than enriching the contents of the gifts you give to the attending shareholders.

Since then, Nintendo places employees in the neighborhood with signs pointing the direction every year:

The sign reads:

Nintendo Co., Ltd.
