I've been looking at various threads here and on gag but I haven't really seen any upset Nintendo fans, I'm not sure how u came to that conclusion?


The initial reaction was one of confusion, with people not wanting it to happen.

With people reading more into it and letting the idea of the actual plan sink in, more people are accepting of it and seeing the positives.

I'm pretty sure Nintendo would be developing those games.

Read the interviews, NeDa will do the developing.

DeNA (not sure why you keep intentionally misspelling it) isn't a developer. They provide maintenance and support for these games. They partner with developers and support the end product through it's life on the market.

If in any way this make them spend more workforce and money on making mobile games instead of consoles games, so this is really the dead of nintendo for me.



"Hardware design isn’t about making the most powerful thing you can.
Today most hardware design is left to other companies, but when you make hardware without taking into account the needs of the eventual software developers, you end up with bloated hardware full of pointless excess. From the outset one must consider design from both a hardware and software perspective."

It's a great move. That much added to the cap will help them fund more games and products.
(manufacture more amiibo please!!)

It is bad for one reason mobile gaming is a fad that will fade. I thought Nintendo was smarter than this. Going mobile to make profit is like McDonalds selling their fries at Burger King yes you are making money but eventually you sellout. Mobile games are mindless and do not challenge you, the control
Specs are awful, I do not see how Super Mario Bros can be played fluently on mobile devices.


Most smartphones today are more powerful than the 3DS....

 

OT: Like I said in the other thread, the best (by far) business decision they've done in years. I deffinitely didn't expect the stock to continue the rise today, that's insane. Should've bought yesterday lol.

70% increase? :-O I'm seeing 29% currently at http://www.bloomberg.com/quote/ntdoy:us or is that 29 % increase measuring something else?

Nintendo arent making the games.  They are licensing the IP to DeNA.  Its a win-win.

Its a cash cow.  Hence massive stock rise.

Nintendo will be involved with making the games. In the conference they talked about a joint development team of Nintendo and DeNA people. Nintendo will still be dedicating resources, but just not as much as if they were doing it alone.

The massive stock rise is because investors believe that branching out into the mobile market makes sense.

Heh, indeed. Will likely keep on saying that as it keeps on increasing...I don't think anyone saw this level of success.
