Miyamoto: Nintendo Not “Proactive” Enough With Online
Nintendo has delivered alot of flagship titles. However, Nintendo hasn’t been able to “captivate” its online portion with these titles — much like its competitors. When speaking on the matter, Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto said that he believes that Nintendo isn’t “proactive” enough with its online portion.
“It is true, though, that Nintendo hasn’t been very proactive in developing such online activities as an MMOG,” Miyamoto told Edge. “But when it comes to our endeavors that try to take advantage of internet technology, where we can provide our customers with more fun and entertainment, then I think we can say we have been very, very proactive and well-received. And that attitude won’t be changed at all in the future.”
Miyamoto then talked about the companies online future, revealing that “[they're] desperate to realize is the core [online] business structure.”
“Do we need to demand customers pay monthly fees to enjoy online activities? Or give an online subscription that is free of charge, but then offer something extra for people that pay, so that they get some extra value? With these core business strategies, I think we are less active than we should be,” continued Miyamoto.
