Kimishima is actually backstage and too distracted by reading our comments to start the conference.

 

[FZZ]

Up until 2011, Nintendo provided webcasts of these briefings! And now, not even live tweeting.

Nah fam Nintendo is progressing and becoming more open

For the fans

Fuck it Nintendo is like Kanye, no info at all. Maybe that's why I stan for both of them.

 

[Fourth Storm]

They're probably playing Miitomo and thinking it's the best thing since Rusty's Real Deal Baseball.

Don't you bring Rusty into this!

 

[udivision]

Drudged up that old design doc lol.

Thank you, I'm stupider now.

He should stop distracting himself and start figuring out how Nintendo will teach children to gamble!!

 

[EloquentM]

Fishy af

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Don't you bring Rusty into this!

Fun game actually but man is it dark and depressing.

*gasp* NX is all about Universe Dominance. Japan comes first, then Seattle, short after all of the US is gone, and finally, the World... NX is the triforce.

So, if in the following hour we don't get a thing, we should be waiting for the briefing upload, right?

 

[AmyS]

Somebody passes us some info, what's happening over there?

 

[AdanVC]

They're probably playing Miitomo and thinking it's the best thing since Rusty's Real Deal Baseball.

Hahah! Looking forward to their impressions! Unless Nintendo makes them sign a freaking NDA.

 

[PreyingShark]

I found something on Twitter. Turns out for the Q&A this year they asked questions to the investors.

Female. She's hot as hell. Male one's kinda cute too but not hot like female Corrin is.

 

[LuigiBlood]

Maybe they don't allow live tweeting because of possible misunderstandings when it's done live, like with My Nintendo before when it was rather confusing.

Probably for the best...

 

[AdanVC]

Okay no but seriously, when are we getting the firsts drops of info of the meeting? Or we will have to wait 2 or 3 days till the official slides go up on Nintendo's website? :S

 

[gulma1]

So have they ever discussed the Seattle Mariners in these meetings?

 

[Belgian Dude]

Maybe they don't allow live tweeting because of possible misunderstandings when it's done live, like with My Nintendo before when it was rather confusing.

Probably for the best...

I don't want the best I want news ;-;

 

[Tadaima]

Nintendo is a publicly traded company. Correct me if I am wrong, but I'm pretty sure that means they can't get their investors to agree to sign NDAs for their results briefings.

 

[Piscus]

Maybe they don't allow live tweeting because of possible misunderstandings when it's done live, like with My Nintendo before when it was rather confusing.

Probably for the best...

...elaborate.

 

[Fourth Storm]

A game for the times.

Hell of a ding that game provides, though. Damn good ding.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Okay no but seriously, when are we getting the firsts drops of info of the meeting? Or we will have to wait 2 or 3 days till the official slides go up on Nintendo's website? :S

The slides this year will use the Xenoblade X fonts.

 

[Maniel]

They probably don't allow live tweets because they plan to reveal all information about NX in a Direct immediately after the meeting is over.

Spoiler

 

[AppleSautts]

He long does it take to get translated transcripts? I always forget.

 

[March of the Crabs]

I imagine this briefing is just a long, silent staring contest between the investors and Kimishima with a PowerPoint consisting only of pictures of smartphones playing in the background.

 

[Ōkami]

Okay no but seriously, when are we getting the firsts drops of info of the meeting? Or we will have to wait 2 or 3 days till the official slides go up on Nintendo's website? :S

The slides go up less than an hour after it's over.

 

[DrWong]

They're unveiling the NX final name: the NDA.

 

[jmizzal]

Okay no but seriously, when are we getting the firsts drops of info of the meeting? Or we will have to wait 2 or 3 days till the official slides go up on Nintendo's website? :S

We never have to wait 2 or 3 days, it will be up in a few hours, just the English version may come a few days later, but by then GAF will have it translated lol

 

[vinnygambini]

Just in: Nintendo's second mobile game will be:

Spoiler

FE RUB

 

[Skiesofwonder]

@pacmanracing Not yet,, they only let the big banks and investors attend this briefing. I am neither

What could that mean...

 

[AmyS]

They're unveiling the NX final name: the NDA.

Nintendo's future is NDA.

 

[LuigiBlood]

You want me to elaborate?

Having followed / read about past live reactions to Investor Briefings, allow me to share the usual Reaction Cycle

1. Way too much hype before the briefings
2. The briefing starts, there are people liveblogging or twetting directly from the event
3. Since live blogs and tweets can't report accurately enough what's going on, infos are shared incomplete or with some misunderstandings. Not the journalist's fault, it's due to the necessity of following everything happening
4. This brings to chaos, mayhem, Doomed for reasons and over-analysis about stuff without enough details to get the whole picture
5. The Japanese transcription is posted: Google Translate becomes the weapon for the freedom from the shackles represented by languages' barrier. Or users who knows Japanese well enough to translate (oh, hi, Cheesemeister ) Still people following earlier, incomplete details
6. English transcription posted. No misunderstandings anymore, just crows and owned everywhere.
7. The cycle repeats itself every time a Quarter Investors' Briefing happens.

They maybe want to avoid number 2 & 3.

Okay no but seriously, when are we getting the firsts drops of info of the meeting? Or we will have to wait 2 or 3 days till the official slides go up on Nintendo's website? :S

The slides usually are published a few hours after the briefing has commenced. The transcript (in Japanese) of the Q&A the day after.

 

[Eolz]

He long does it take to get translated transcripts? I always forget.

Should be friday at worst for the official version.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

They're unveiling the NX final name: the NDA.

They should release the system with a lock that eventually can be opened after time.

 

[Josh5890]

So have they ever discussed the Seattle Mariners in these meetings?

I think it came up at the meeting after Yamauchi's passing

 

[The Last One]

At least I found this image of the Q&A on the twitter, so yeah, it's happening at least =p

Tweet from Serkan Toto:

@JesseLaythe Right, they only let the big banks and investors attend this briefing. Ends in 5 minutes.

 

[Oersted]

They're unveiling the NX final name: the NDA.

We are all already playing it, we will just never know.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Tweet from Serkan Toto:

Only a hybrid could be this top secret.

 

[Eolz]

Only a hybrid could be this top secret.

Oh no don't open those gates again.

@JesseLaythe I think no NX news or demos will be shared this time around even though Nintendo is unpredictable.

surprise!

 

[BY2K]

Tweet from Serkan Toto:

We're not getting SHIT, are we?

 

[madstarr12]

Only a hybrid could be this top secret.

Even better....a Hybrid of a Hybrid.

 

[Thraktor]

Only a hybrid could be this top secret.

Or, more likely, big investors and banks have no interest live-tweeting these things, hence we're almost certainly going to have to wait for the slides and the transcript.

 

[Hatchtag]

Only a hybrid could be this top secret.

true, but i don't see what nintendo has to earn from getting into the automobile manufacturing business.

 

[FZZ]

Investor meeting was just about Miitomo wasn't it

 

[AdanVC]

The slides this year will use the Xenoblade X fonts.

Let me bring my glasses then

The slides go up less than an hour after it's over.

We never have to wait 2 or 3 days, it will be up in a few hours, just the English version may come a few days later, but by then GAF will have it translated lol

The slides usually are published a few hours after the briefing has commenced. The transcript (in Japanese) of the Q&A the day after.

Thank you! Hopefully we can have some info in the upcoming hours then. What if they also changed politics of when they publish those slides? Hope not.

Tweet from Serkan Toto:

Next NX leak will be: "I can confirm they're done with the meeting. See you next quarter."

 

[Serenitynow]

Tweet from Serkan Toto:

But I like Bernie Sanders AND Nintendo

 

[Eolz]

Investor meeting was just about Miitomo wasn't it

First DLC costumes exclusive reveal. Don't want to spoil that.

 

[TheOnlyOneHeEverFeared]

Are people really falling for the hype of this? Its gonna be nothing.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

We're not getting SHIT, are we?

You said we wouldn't and now you are upset we aren't???

You are a contradiction in terms.
