The advent of a Nintendo-branded peripheral, unlike other devices like Hyperkin's Smart Boy, is likely to be a big seller. Unfortunately, this was just a single off-hand comment at a shareholder meeting, so we can't take anything as read. But this is Nintendo, and whenever one of its executives mentions anything, even in passing, people's ears begin to prick up. Takahashi also said that his division would make "applications and not just action games," a subtle hint that we'll see more innovative titles like Miitomo as well as, or instead of, a new iteration of Super Mario. After all, the company is hoping that mobile games will help turn around its flagging business after a few years of slow hardware sales.
