Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima gave a wide ranging interview to Time magazine discussing Nintendo's present and future.

The interview reconfirms the company's commitment to using Nintendo Account across platforms, including earning points in My Nintendo for interacting with Nintendo IP outside of games. The company still intends to support existing platforms (specifically calling out the Wii U), but the NX platform is expected to be different from the existing platforms as well.

When asked about the Quality of Life initiative, Kimishima stated the company was still working on it but had no announcements to make at the time.
