Former Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser says that the company doesn’t currently “feel the need” to bring its games to other consoles.
As it makes clear at pretty much every opportunity, Nintendo marches to the beat of its own drum more than any other company in gaming. It has its own faults, sure, but while PlayStation and Xbox chase trends like live-services and put most of their time and money into trying to push graphics even further, Nintendo is mostly content just making fun games.
Unlike PlayStation with its temporary foray into porting games to PC and Xbox and its controversial, since walked back third-party push, Nintendo notably likes to keep its franchises solely on its own hardware. Even with console exclusives changing so much this console generation, it sounds like Nintendo won't be steering away from that approach any time soon.
As pointed out by My Nintendo News, GamesBeat recently assembled some notable industry veterans to talk about the current state of gaming. One of the members of the panel was none other than former Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser, who shed some light on the company’s approach to releasing its software and games.
We finally got a chance to play The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake and it's still one of the best games ever made.
Bowser said that the conversation about creating consoles and games has always been “different” for Nintendo since both teams work together to “optimise the build” at the “lowest costs”.
