Nintendo President Tatsumi Kimishima Recently made a statement indicating that a 3DS successor is being considered, as he believes that there is a need and market for it.
Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick joins 'Money Movers' to discuss the company's quarterly earnings results, how confident Zelnick is in the guidance for fall 2025, and much more.
Take-Two head honcho Strauss Zelnick states every time they establish a price, they want to make sure it's "good news for consumers."
It's the why we close servers after 2 years, why we re-use the same assets every year, and why we bundle our game with enjoyable microtransactions.
Re-using assets is not a bad thing tbh. Development is all about re-using code, assets and components.
Can you please focus on delivering enough quality content to justify the $70 asking price? While I appreciate the idea of over-delivering, it's essential to ensure that the base content itself is worth it. I have concerns that GTA6 might have less single-player content because most of the focus seems to be shifting towards online play and microtransactions
The sleaze oozes out of these gaming CEOs faces. It's honestly disturbing how distorted people look when you've realized how money obsessed they really are. He gives off "in one ear and straight out the other" vibes.
I really don't get it
like
do they think anyone believes what they say?
is it that being in charge surrounds you by so many yesmen that they get deluded into thinking everyone is like that?
Well if you look at the last 10 years you will notice there wasn't as single paid dlc. Every update was free whether you want to complain about sharkcards or not.
They're going to make billions on this game especially if they keep the same formula as last in regards to updates.
Selling Shark cards and removing content are not exactly "good news for consumers" lol.
The last time they released any DLC worth playing was 15 years ago.
GTA V is so broken and unbalanced that people would rather do stupid cringey stunts with than do heists.
I'm sure the player base would disagree, and gta5 is still being supported, much longer then most games, after all I bought gta5 day 1 on ps3....
Nintendo of America has posted a fascinating new job opening that could signal significant changes for the company’s future products.
It undermines what they're doing with the Switch. Stick to one system that does both. Then you'd have all of Nintendo's console and handheld teams all making games and collaborating on one system. So many games attracting both crowds of gamers. You don't need a new handheld Nintendo. The whole point of the Switch is to do both, so let it do that.
A 3DS replacement makes no sense since porting those games to the Switch would add to the Switch library
Terrible strategy. I thought they were going to put all of the devs onto one machine and pretty much create a huge catalog of games at least exclusives from their studios to combat the problems they have with third parties. Now if this comes to pass expect a drought and more focus being paid to the 3ds successor.
Edit: From a business perspective i understand the move to want to get the 3ds cash but they need to consolidate for the health of the gamer. They're basically destroying the switch.
considering doesn't mean it actually currently being planned.
They will make only if smaller Japanese devs can't afford to move to HD game development which a lot of don't.
You never know the next successor for Nintendo Dedicated Handheld might just be a cheaper Switch with dual screen.
They should just make a second version of the switch with no docking. That way those people who have to have the handheld only can. The important thing is that they are not spreading their games across two platforms anymore. They really need to put out more first party games faster without two consoles taking away from one.
