Even though Nintendo isn’t faring that well with its Wii U console, the company’s president, Satoru Iwata, remains optimistic.
Nintendo “is a company that can do whatever it wants,” said Iwata in an interview, talking in further detail about the “quality of life” statement he made about the company a month ago. He feels that it’s still “an entertainment company and should never be anything else,” but believes that late predecessor Hiroshi Yamauchi felt that “didn’t necessarily think ‘entertainment equals video games’.”
When it comes to entertainment, Iwata stated that it “is there to improve people’s quality of life. At the start of this year, I finally figured that the concept of ‘improving people’s quality of life with fun’ with emphasis on the ‘fun’ would be perfect for Nintendo.”
Nintendo’s big plans will be unveiled next month during E3, when the company plans to hold a Digital Event to showcase its new games, among other activities.
