"It has been over 30 years since we started developing consoles. Nintendo's history goes back even farther than that" Furukawa continued, "and through all the struggles that they faced the only thing that they thought about was what to make next. In the long-term, perhaps our focus as a business could shift away from home consoles – flexibility is just as important as ingenuity."
