[chrono01]

Nintendo Ninja are going to "take care" of that guy.

 

[chiimisu]

People like this are why I don't participate in fan-translations anymore.

Fan translation is one thing, business event is another. Professional translation has much higher standarts. Isn't that obvious?

 

[GWX]

Whoa, Iwata just slapped that man on the face :lol He'll still answer the questions, what a nice guy.

 

[Alienous]

Iwata basically just called this guy a punk.

 

[WonderRade]

Quick what's going on.

this is where im at.

any summarys so far?

 

[EloquentM]

Good timing.

I know. I blame Nintendo. They're so bad at the Internet ={

 

[SatoAilDarko]

Oh shit...possible gameplay on other devices? Nintendo games on my PC? Oh my god....this is amazing.

How did you get that from what he said? He already said not console ports.

It'll be second-screen gameplay like Assassin Creed did.

 

[Numb]

they said they will give more info next year.
There won't speak of it at E3. And we all were aware of that. I speak about people with realistic expectations.

I didnt know about that.
Well im back to normal hype then.

 

[Shadoron]

I think we just heard an "Iwata: (laughs)" live.

 

[JNA]

Nintendo really needs to get back into the love hotel business. Really redefine entertainment. NXXX.

The Nintendo XXX! Perfect!

 

[Azure J]

Membership service will allow cross saves/play it seems.

Whoa WHAT

 

[HawthorneKitty]

Wasn't this question already answered during their presentation?

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

I know. I blame Nintendo. They're so bad at the Internet ={

I meant the whole phone thing

 

[AdanVC]

The guys who asked that question about profit. He was just trolling or what? haha.

 

[Skrams]

Even the translator lady was seemingly holding back a laugh because of that. That's pretty good.

 

[foxuzamaki]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

 

[Herb Alpert]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Nintendo has changed.

 

[OranSky]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Hell has frozen over. Your welcome.

 

[Bl@de]

The way Iwata talks makes me think that this is more than a small alliance. This sounds like they making a serious shift for the mobile market. But of course they start it slow so they don't risk too much.

 

[Moonlight]

What just happened that was so funny?

 

[oti]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Nintendo is doomed is doomed.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Retro's new game is Cranky's Colostomy Bag Crush.

 

[WonderRade]

You're late to the party dude

[EloquentM]

No updates! Gaf you have failed meeeee 😭

 

[Herb Alpert]

Nintendo is doomed is doomed.

Now this is really funny! I laughed pretty hard!

 

[Ban Puncher]

Nintendo is doomed is doomed.

It's not that dissimilar when people with no experience in Japanese - English translation or business meetings in Japan offer their "advice."

Even the translator lady was seemingly holding back a laugh because of that. That's pretty good.

OMG! So unprofessional! She should be shot! This is like the U.N. and the translation should be 100% professional!

[nephilimdj]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Nintendo has joined with DeNA
Nintendo will make original games for phones from Nintendo IP
Nintendo are making a hybrid for phone games and its own called NX (4DS and android device?)
Nintendo claims environmental changes are the main reason this happened
Claims wont cheapen 3ds/wiiu because they are not the same games

Iwata is eating his hat

 

[Cipherr]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

• Nintendo semi name dropped their next Handheld/Console (we don't know which or if its a hybrid)
• They are partnering with this company to make mobile specific games that use Nintendo IP
• No ports (There will not be any console games ported to consoles, the mobile affairs are separate)
• They did not say the mobile games once made wouldnt come to dedicated gaming hardware.
• Nintendo is creating an account system that will connect their dedicated gaming hardware,PC and mobile together.

 

[Nintendoga]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

The unthinkable has happened.
The four horsemen of the apocalypse will be arriving shortly. Unless they have too much fun playing some Nintendo mobile games.

 

[Cyrano]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

Here's a partial from a Nintendo press release that summarizes what's happening: Nintendo and DeNA today entered into a business and capital alliance to develop and operate new game apps for smart devices and build a new multi-device membership service for consumers worldwide.

 

[NuttSack]

It almost felt like Iwata and the other guy were negotiating live...

 

[Jonneh3003]

They're using MACbooks, I bet they're developing an IOS game as we speak!

 

[Thoraxes]

The thirst is real:

 

[Pancakes R Us]

Does DeNA have any presence in the west? If not, I wonder who Nintendo would partner up with here.

Whatever, I'm expecting Nintendo to still make stupid decisions.

 

[Dice]

What was the funny question? I got bored and listened to a song.

 

[Dmax3901]

The thirst is real:

I too am a Dick Advocate.

 

[Cipherr]

Man these questions suck.

 

[MrCunningham]

Nintendo Phillips part 2? Where's my Hotel Mario sequel?

Thanks.

 

[foxuzamaki]

I dont know how to feel guys.

 

[jaosobno]

Please somebody explain to me whats going on

- partnership with DeNA
- Nintendo goes part mobile with their IPs
- Nintendo develops games, DeNA develops backend (server, analytics, unified accounts)
- no console to smart device/PC ports, only new games. Won't compromise on quality.
- (probably) next gen hardware announced. Codenamed "NX".
- one translator sucks

Nintendo is basically just expanding its business. They will still make dedicated gaming hardware and such hardware will still have exclusive Nintendo games.

 

[random25]

Dammit that question has been answered like so many times!

Nothing wrong with eating your hat if its edible lol

 

[Madouu]

Man these questions suck.

This one is interesting but it won't get a good answer.

 

[thegirlleastlikelyto]

Whatever, I'm expecting Nintendo to still make stupid decisions.

DeNA has an office out here in SF with, I think, developers as well as other staff.

EDIT: Almost forgot they acquired ngmoco, so they actually have quite a bit of development staff in SF.

I'm not sure but having Nintendo as a partner will probably help to give them one.
