Nintendo’s annual meeting with shareholders saw the company address plans for the upcoming NX console, confirm research into VR and details its mobile plans. Its strategy will see the publisher looks to release games that average a sale of at least 2 million units worldwide. “While it’s important that we do not overextend by putting an excessive amount of content in our games, the only solution is how to make software that sells well,” said Nintendo director Shigeru Miyamoto, adding, “So our basic premise is to create software that will sell in the range of at least two million units. We simply couldn’t recoup our costs if we only released games in Japan that had sales of around 300,000 units, so the global market is our standard.”

On the mobile front, Nintendo is mulling a physical controller for its upcoming mobile games, with plans to have around five smartphone games by the end of next March. In addition, execs stated that they consider VR to be a “promising technology” with the company now conducting research into the technology for future releases, noting that they were “looking into development with a mind to how our current core products are meant to be played for a relatively long period of time.”
