Kimishima has succeeded former president Satoru Iwata, who passed away in July. As seen in the quote above, the new president wants to aggressively expand Nintendo characters and franchise exposure to new audiences. He also went on to discuss the company’s plans with the NX:
"For our dedicated video game platform business, Nintendo is currently developing a gaming platform codenamed 'NX' with a brand-new concept and our unique software-led hardware-software integrated business will continue to constitute the core business for Nintendo. For the purpose of maximizing the population that interact with Nintendo IP, we will also enter into the smart device gaming business and aim to generate revenue and profit from it as well as to create synergy with the dedicated video game platform business."
