It's clear Nintendo as a company is trying to expand outside of just video gamesThey've had success making movies and theme parks Do you see them ever trying to enter the phone market and being part of the big 2 (3 if you include Xiaomi)In the same way playstation and xbox are only part of the sony/Microsoft brand could the switch be Nintendo's long term console brand as they expand into the phone marketHistorically Nintendo have always exceled at being the budget option whilst competing with the powerhouses of the generationIf Nintendo was to enter the phone market what would you do to ensure they're at least a serious competitor just below apple and samsung?
>>109797647This is a horrible way to do market research and I hope they fire you.
>>109797653Kek
>>109797653fpbp.Imagine having to do market research on the weekend. Probably in your free time working for no money just to impress your PM lol
>>109797647Brown hands wrote this
>>109797647Nintendo is pretty comfortable where they're, they'll just embarrass themselves trying to compete in a market that's already struggling
>>109797647They were working on this at some point but they decided to release games on Android and iOS instead, which made sense for Nintendo always made money only from games, not from hardware.Anyway, if they did, it would be a system even more locked down than Android and iOS already are...

>>109797945animal crossing: pocket camp (the mobile version) is actually better and more feature rich than animal crossing new horizons (the switch version). I've always said that Nintendos obsession with having its own hardware is getting in the way of them selling more games. They can even release their games on PC if they put strong enough DRM on there, through their own store>>109797647sony tried it and it failed miserably
>>109797647>Do you see Nintendo ever entering the phone marketAbsolutely not. There's no way for them to succeed in such a deeply entrenched market. LG and Nokia got forced out of the market entirely. Sony got forced out of the US by nothing other than carrier niggardry.Nintendo's strength is in their IP. There's no way for them to leverage that to sell phones. You could just run their software on other phones.>If Nintendo was to enter the phone market what would you do to ensure they're at least a serious competitor just below apple and samsung?1. Be a viable option in the US.2. Removable battery3. Expandable memory4. Headphone jack5. Without gutter tier specs. No MediaTek SoC. No 4GB RAM bullshit. Because otherwise I can go buy a $50 Motorola.There's no point to them doing this.

>>109798132>I've never had sexI did have sex with one mom and two grannies. The youngest was 31
>>109797647the only reason people buy underpowered outdated nintencrap hardware is because of the exclusive titles they release. why tf would they release a phone, a market with brutal competition, spec masturbation and low margins
>>109798132Er, thanks for letting us know that you never had sex, but we don't care.But don't worry, eventually, one day, you will, maybe.
>>109798613>low marginsSamsung and Apple are laughing hard at this comment.
>>109797647>what would you dopeach sex robot included
>>109799049right, haven't bought a phone in 4 years
>>109799049most phones sold worldwide are between 100-300 eurodollars. the margins on those is negative at times and they have to introduce bloatware and spyware to make low single digit profits over the lifespan of the device
>>109797647After all this time, I doubt it. I'd be more interested in a Steam Phone, since it'd probably be more open, but I don't see that happening anytime soon either.>>109797945Nintendo's the only console maker who DOES make money on hardware.>>109799049They're the only ones laughing, that's the problem.
>>109797647What would their angle be, why would somebody buy a phone from Nintendo instead of anybody else? I think Nintendo lives off the products it makes in its well-known and successful IPs. Everything they do and succeed at is tied to those, how would smartphones even fit in?Buy a phone which can run Switch games? It comes with some bracket you can put the phone and joycons in? That's the only angle I can really see and I do think it would have some appeal for certain people but I don't think that's enough to really dent the smartphone market, I'm not sure it would even be worth the effort for them, would they really make a lot more money than they do just selling Switch consoles?I don't really see it.
>>109797647they're hesitant to even do voice comm and you think they will make a phone?
>>109798132Good, because aids prevention.
