Coming from Nintendo's David Young...



On preorder allotments



What were doing is, of course, we want to meet demand, right?. I mean, it doesnt do us any good not to, right? I mean, its in our best interest, and we certainly will do our best to meet that. Mr. [Nintendo president Tatsumi] Kimishima announced that during that launch window, you know, he announced a worldwide number of whats available  I believe he said there was two million so thats in that launch window. So thats the, you know, sort of the starting point, and then, well have ways to react depending on what happens there, right? I mean, theres probably some levers to pull if we need to accelerate things.



On tech specs



- more powerful than Wii U

- no 4K mode

- 720p in handheld mode

- does not have an optical out



On battery life



- screen has a brightness setting you can use to get more battery out of the Switch



On continuing with 3DS



The Nintendo 3DS line is very healthy. Weve had a great year. Weve had several months of year-on-year growth so thats not going away. You know, weve got a good lineup of games were talking about in 2017 so yeah, that business is strong. Its not going anywhere. So, were still a company that makes, you know, the on-the-go games for the handheld system and these great experiences for the home console. But now, you can take your home console with you.



On online play



Yeah, you know, thisll allow really a more robust kind of environment and development of that online. Thats what weve been discussing, is that this app will allow you [to use] the voice chat.



On leaked info



Yeah, absolutely. I mean, we keep our eyes open on those kind of things and it is disappointing because, you know, you want to deliver a message with the maximum impact, right? And so, we design things like today, right? And like the broadcast from Japan last night. You want to have things that are synchronized and timed and sometimes, when [there are] leaks, it will interfere with that. But, you know, we do the best we can, right? Sometimes, these things happen when you have this information spread in a broad way, you know. Theres somebody that always wants to say, Hey, I know something you dont know, and post things. And that stuff happens. But I think, for the most part, we did pretty well on moving through and sharing the information. And today, I think, is going really great for us.
