Analyst at MST Financial David Gibson asked Nintendo what the company thinks about the metaverses and NFTs. The organization replied that they recognize the high potential of this area, but are not yet sure whether they will develop it.
Later, the expert clarified that the answer was more about virtual gaming platforms than about tokens. Nintendo doesn’t want to rush into adopting this technology, considering how it can be useful for casual gamers.
This is an extremely common sense approach. It contrasts with the desire of other major developers to dominate a promising new market.
Recall that Ubisoft’s plans to create its own NFT platform met with fierce criticism among ordinary gamers. The company even had to change plans a bit in order to appease the audience.
Microsoft, in turn, acquired Activision Blizzard to “develop the direction of the metaverse.” This practice causes cautious skepticism among players who fear that “big business” will take advantage of the integration of new technologies for the banal “money pumping”.
As for the financial results of last year, Nintendo showed a loss of 2.5% due to the crisis in the production of computer chips.
