In the ongoing fourth quarter (Jan – March) of their financial year, Nintendo estimate that their research and development (R&D) expenses will increase by about 80% compared to the same period last year. At a financial results Q&A with investors and analysts, Nintendo president Satoru Iwata was asked why this was the case.
He continued: “Yesterday, I received the same question when we made our financial announcement at the Osaka Securities Exchange and answered that we decided to increase our forecasted expenses this fiscal year in order to tackle some of the areas that we feel we are not strong at, and this is an investment toward the future.”
Iwata added: “I will not, however, go into detail about these specific areas since doing so does not benefit Nintendo or our shareholders. Please also note that the rise is unique to this fiscal year and it does not signify a general rise for and beyond the next fiscal year.”
- خلال الربع الرابع المتبقي من السنة المالية، ننتندو سترفع ميزانية البحث و التطوير بنسبة 80% و هي زيادة كبيرة جداً جداً، أيواتا رفض توضيح هذه المصاريف و اكتفى بالتأكيد على انها "استثمار للمستقبل" في بعض النواحي التي تُعاني ننتندو من ضعف فيها.
ما رأيكم ؟ كان ممكن أتوقع انها استثمارات متعلقة بالـQOL، لكن أيواتا قال أن هذه الاستثمارات تتعلق بمناطق تُعاني ننتندو من ضعف فيها، هل هي استثمارات في الشبكة مثلاً ؟
