Kimishima Talks About Switch Targets, China Entry, Mobile, & Super Nintendo World

In an interview with Diamond, Nintendo President, Tatsumi Kimishima, shared some of his views on a variety of topics. The interview can be viewed here in Japanese however, Dr Serkan Toto from Kantan Games has kindly translated a few points out.

Basically, here is what Kimishima thinks. Kimishima thinks that Nintendo can sell one Switch per person in the household but thinks that the Switch’s price might be an issue. On the other hand, the 3DS continues to sell strongly to children

As for Switch’s entry into China, Chinese regulations are making it difficult to enter the market as it currently is.

Kimishima also commented that he was satisfied with Nintendo’s partnership with DeNA and that people can look for to more apps coming up.

Last point, Super Nintendo World is expected to be complete before the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, so tourist and athletes can definitely check it out for some R&R.
