Are you guys that hyped for this really? Really?

 

[Roo]

Okay, this should be underway now.

I just want to know how Iwata answers the iOS questions this time. The man's good at it.

You know they have to have a perfectly crafted answer for this before the question is even asked.

 

[BurntPork]

The insider sources I don't have have confirmed that the fans will be allowed to pick a new name!

 

[ManeKast]

I'm beside myself.

What did Nintendo Answer?

Here's one what investor said at yesterday's shareholder meeting: "I'm concerned about the falling stock price. I own stock, but I don't own a single Nintendo product. I believe games are a waste of time. By the way, the reason I own Nintendo stock is because the name is nice, it's in Kyoto and it was listed in the year of my birth."

Iwata somehow managed to come up with a thoughtful answer: "There are people in this world who don't feel that games are a waste of time, so Nintendo continues to exist. We'd like to eliminate the thinking that playing games by yourself is negative, or when there's a crime you immediately tie it into games. We'd like to raise the social importance of games. We're working to expand the gaming population, yourself included."

This same shareholder asked a followup question: "During the Tohoku earthquake disaster, I believe people in the evacuation centers were lacking in exercise. Why didn't you bring Wii Fit to them? Why didn't you show off to the media that you're doing more for the victims?"

Iwata responded that while it is true that some may be able to use Wii Fit to recover from their lack of exercise, others might have lost loved ones and wanted to spend time quietly. So, they felt that it would not be good to send out product indiscriminately.

Why does this feel like a Wii U speculation thread...?

because its Nintendo and even during events secrets are never fully revealed

Being hyped is fun, dude. Asking that question is like saying "Do you like playing video games really? Really?"

 

[IceDoesntHelp]

It's tweeting! It's tweeting! I'm sorry I left, you baby! The HYPE IS BACK!

 

[Kazerei]

Three Pokemon DS games? Black 2, White 2, and Typing?

 

[Krev]

iirc, Iwata said that they actually did send relief aid and supplies but that they did not want to make such information public because they felt that such actions should be done in secret without expecting commendation

It's amazing how Iwata keeps his cool and gives a great answer to even the most moronic of questions.

 

[Skiesofwonder]

No @gibbogame livetweets? Oh, dear.

Yeah, I'm starting to get a bit concerned.....

Edit: spoke too soon..
