Zero Tolerance Nintendo Investoren Meeting - Zusammenfassung der Killer News

[Duncan]

Wii U:

User accounts: Wii U will have individual user accounts, rather than one system-wide account.
NFC: Near Field Communication ("touch" data transmission from accessories, credit cards, etc... sort of like QR/Streetpass combined) will be built-in.
Online: Miyamoto: "Network has to have a totally new concept to be different."

3DS:

NSMB 3DS announced: Planning to release a totally new side-scrolling action Super Mario in 2D as a key title for the Nintendo 3DS in the next fiscal year.
200 3DS titles in development.
Nintendo first-party DLC: Nintendo considering DLC for their own software, mentions "Super Mario" as an example:
"If a Super Mario user gets tired, we can then sell digital extras which will drive extra revenue, encourage higher communication amongst users, and possible increased satisfaction and hardware install bases."
More Swapnote-like apps? Because of the success of Swapnote, Nintendo is considering other strategies to benefit from this social behaviour.
"Path to profits is improve 3DS and focus on software. Super Mario titles will drive a lot of profitability."
60% of 3DS users have connected to the Internet; wants to expand digital offering, but at "infant stage" now.
Iwata: "Nintendo's priority is to satisfy existing 3DS users, as well as to prepare titles that will expand the user base combined with network."


General:

Third parties: Several new, previously unconsidered alliances/partnerships with third parties.
Communities: You haven't seen the last of them!
Retail title downloads: 3DS and Wii U both support digital download of retail titles, but... they still aren't quite sure how to implement it just yet.
Item billing: "We should not decline third parties if they want to offer item billing" (paying to unlock content).
DLC: Still planning to offer DLC (possibly talking about their own software), but needs more time to complete its feasibility study on the market and its needs.
More sharing: "Digital will include user to user communications and sharing" (More social networking integration? More Swapnote-like apps? More emphasis on Streetpass/Spotpass?).
Better-paced software + DLC: Nintendo has learnt that it shouldn't have stagnant periods between software launches: can fill the gap, and DLC can extend the life of a title.
Asia: Planning products for Asia, local partners (WiiQue U?) yet to be announced; still issues of copyright.
This will be Nintendo's worst financial year, but Iwata thinks the company can reach break-even on 3DS hardware in Q3 of this year.
Miyamoto still around, Iwata angry at Wired. "Miyamoto is saying his basic work is to create a big hit."

Hört sich an als sei Nintendo auf dem richtigen Weg

Mal sehen was die E3 bringt.

Es war schon ganz gut, dass man beim 3DS einen auf den Deckel bekommen hat... umsomehr wird man sich bei der WiiU bemühen.

Nintendo Network von Iwata bestätigt

As for the sales of downloadable add-on content, “Tobidasu Pricla Kiradeco Revolution” (Japanese title), which Nintendo has already started the download sales to the owners of the Nintendo 3DS, is the first title for which consumers can purchase and download add-on content. We will make available the downloadable add-on content for this Nintendo first-party digital download title in the near future.

For the digital sales of the content, we are also considering the future possibility of digital distribution of packaged software, which is often referred to as “software download sales.” This concept was built into the design of the Nintendo 3DS, and we already have the necessary infrastructure.

Sehr gute News Nintendo schreitet voran und hat auch ziemlich gute Ideen. Ich bin auf das NFC gespannt... und die WiiU wird wohl am Ende wirklich den Weg weisen. Der 3DS war nur eine Andeutung, wohin es geht, mit der WiiU fügt Nintendo wieder große Puzzle-Teile zusammen. Auch wenn ich nicht davon ausgehe, dass es von Tag 1 an perfekt sein wird... aber es kommt noch
