Nintendo President Shuntaro Furukawa he repeated that the company plans to take action against those who abuse its intellectual property and says that “appropriate action must be taken against any behavior that undermines this policy.” Mr. Furukawa would not be drawn into citing recent examples of this.
Furukawa: Our company aims to realize our management policy to “bring smiles through fun” by proposing unique games that everyone can intuitively enjoy. I will refrain from commenting on individual cases, but we believe that appropriate action must be taken against any behavior that undermines this policy.
Our goal is to create an environment where everyone can enjoy playing games. We will continue to make every effort to ensure that our consumers do not feel uncomfortable, not only in our games but everywhere they come into contact with our IP.
