Though your comment made me realize something, compared to most AAA game studios, they’re a select few that have little to no articles about them having the, “mass layoffs, biggest profits ever.” I think they have a low turnover rate over at their company. Granted, could be biases that are not letting me see those things but still.
From what I understand execs at Japanese companies are held accountable a lot more than their American counterparts. Execs will often take a hit to their pay in order to avoid layoffs where most American companies will lay people off to avoid having to pay the execs less.
According to their 2023 financial report the top executives at Nintendo made around 2m$ which is significantly lower than most other gaming companies which probably helps avoid layoffs where
One person profiting while the rest of their colleagues suffer for it would be quite frowned upon in Japan, its culture is largely focused around supporting the collective. It's much more shameful for an executive to take more than what would be considered their due at the expense of those under them. If they got caught for it at least.
I don't know how it is for the rest of the world, but for the last 40+ years, the U.S. Federal Minimum Wage has increased every 5-10 years.
The last time the Wage was increased was 2009, 16 years ago!
That's why $80 is bullshit. I can afford it but many people can't and this is how Nintendo rewards its faithful customers, especially after their disgraceful failure known as the Wii U (irrelevant if anyone loved it, it's still the worst thing Nintendo has created since Virtual Boy and Nintendo needed the Switch to succeed).
I thought the Japanese were all about respect, but Nintendo just hides being their Japanese culture, they don't embrace it. Nintendo just acts like any other greedy Western capitalist company.
You idiot, learn to research before making a dumbass comment.
“While it’s difficult to pinpoint an exact percentage, the United States is Nintendo’s largest market, accounting for over a third of their annual revenue, making a significant portion of their customer base American. “
DUURRR IM KINGRUFIIO I THINK NINTENDO DOESNT NEED TO WORK WITH ONE OF ITS BIGGEST CUSTOMERS DURRRR
Wow your username checks out. You hear an opposing opinion and immediately start being disrespectful. I bet you never leave the house without a fedora and swamp ass.

I don’t have a problem with a higher price, although 80 bucks is quite a bit. I have a problem with salaries not going up as well.
