Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 96, , language: English, abstract: Nintendo Corporation was established on September 23rd of 1889 by Fusajiro Yamauchi in Kyoto Japan. The company originally sold hand painted Hanafuda playing cards under the name Nintendo Koppai. Their success in the playing card industry led to them to try other ventures such as ramen noodles, taxi services, short-term “love” hotels and lastly video games. In 1940 Fusajiro Yamauchi died and nine years later his great grandson Hiroshi Yamauchi took over the company at the age of 22. For the next 50 years he led Nintendo to become the video game giant it is. In 1985 Nintendo released the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) their first home console. In 1989 they released the Gameboy their first handheld device. Though neither item was the first of its kind they still were wildly popular and pushed Nintendo to create newer and better games and consoles. (Gebel, 2019) Nintendo’s Mission and Vision statement today is lacking. The company is known for their creativity and innovation, but their mission statement is void of that. “Nintendo of America's Corporate Mission and Philosophy: At Nintendo we are proud to be working for the leading company in our industry. We are strongly committed to producing and marketing the best products and support services available. We believe it is essential not only to provide products of the highest quality, but to treat every customer with attention, consideration, and respect. By listening closely to our customers, we constantly improve our products and services. We feel an equal commitment toward our employees. We want to maintain an atmosphere in which talented individuals can work together as a team. Commitment and enthusiasm are crucial to the high quality of our products and support services. We believe in treating our employees with the same consideration and respect that we, as a company, show our customers.” (Nintendo, 2020)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2011 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 84 % (1,0), University of Exeter (Business School), language: English, abstract: 1. Introduction Nintendo, the Japanese video game console manufacturing company, is one of the big players in the respective industry along with Sony and Microsoft. In 2006, when the competitors were following the industry norm to improve the product features, Nintendo followed a disruptive route to target a new market with a new product that none of the competitors had: the Wii. The following report strives to present a comprehensive strategic analysis of Nintendo for the executive board. Beginning with an analysis of Nintendo's current strategy, the report evaluates the strategy in terms of its fit with the environment. Finally, the report presents some recommendations and implementation issues that the board needs to consider while making its decision. 2. Strategy Analysis The strategic analysis of Nintendo has been conducted at the corporate level along with the Blue Ocean Strategy that played a key role in the formulation of its disruptive strategy. 2.1 Corporate Level Strategy At the corporate level, Nintendo is following an Innovation Strategy that has played an important role in building its competitive advantage. Figure 1 shows an analysis of Nintendo's innovation strategy through the framework of the Innovation Dilemma (Johnson et al., 2008). The analysis of Nintendo's innovation strategy indicates that it used an innovative business model i.e. to position itself completely different from its competitors andquestioned how people actually want to play through its in depth customer understanding (Pontiskoski and Asakawa, 2009). Secondly, Nintendo used a technological push i.e. to target an untapped or incomplete market of gamers, as it had to convince the non-gamer adult to play on a Nintendo platform. Through its largest advertising campaign

This book was released on 2009-12 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bachelor Thesis from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Marketing, Corporate Communication, CRM, Market Research, Social Media, grade: 1,3, University of Applied Sciences Bielefeld, language: English, abstract: In the year 2009, Nintendo was placed fifth in the BusinessWeek's ranking of the world's most innovative companies. This confirms Nintendo's significant rearrangement into an innovative design powerhouse that redefined the predominant business value factors of the video game industry. However, a few years ago no analyst would have anticipated that Nintendo would develop in this direction. Until the mid-1990s, the global home video game console industry was dominated by Nintendo, a Japanese video game hardware and software manufacturer. Rivalry in this industry only marginally existed. This changed when Sony entered the market in 1994. By offering a console that was technologically superior, Sony outperformed the then-Nintendo console. Thereby new challenges arose for the Japanese company. Nintendo lost its long lasting market leadership to the new entrant. Despite several trails to recapture market leadership during the end-1990s, Nintendo was stuck in second place. Instead of regaining market share, the opposite was the case when Microsoft, a computer software giant, joined the market in 2001. Nintendo's market share slipped dramatically because they were not able to keep up the technological progress of its competitors. The former market leader fell back to the third place of the industry. Analysts of the video game entertainment industry even recommended that Nintendo withdraw completely from the highly competitive console market in order to concentrate on developing software.4 However, Nintendo refused to surrender, but they were in biggest need to recover market share. Nintendo had a very different approach to strategy than Sony or Microsoft. Instead of competing for core gamers, Nintendo tried to expand the market and to win new cus

Book Synopsis Super Power, Spoony Bards, and Silverware by : Dominic Arsenault
Download or read book Super Power, Spoony Bards, and Silverware written by Dominic Arsenault and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A critical look at how the Super Nintendo Entertainment System—and a resistance to innovation—took Nintendo from industry leadership to the margins of videogaming. This is a book about the Super Nintendo Entertainment System that is not celebratory or self-congratulatory. Most other accounts declare the Super NES the undisputed victor of the “16-bit console wars” of 1989–1995. In this book, Dominic Arsenault reminds us that although the SNES was a strong platform filled with high-quality games, it was also the product of a short-sighted corporate vision focused on maintaining Nintendo’s market share and business model. This led the firm to fall from a dominant position during its golden age (dubbed by Arsenault the “ReNESsance”) with the NES to the margins of the industry with the Nintendo 64 and GameCube consoles. Arsenault argues that Nintendo’s conservative business strategies and resistance to innovation during the SNES years explain its market defeat by Sony’s PlayStation. Extending the notion of “platform” to include the marketing forces that shape and constrain creative work, Arsenault draws not only on game studies and histories but on game magazines, boxes, manuals, and advertisements to identify the technological discourses and business models that formed Nintendo’s Super Power. He also describes the cultural changes in video games during the 1990s that slowly eroded the love of gamer enthusiasts for the SNES as the Nintendo generation matured. Finally, he chronicles the many technological changes that occurred through the SNES's lifetime, including full-motion video, CD-ROM storage, and the shift to 3D graphics. Because of the SNES platform’s architecture, Arsenault explains, Nintendo resisted these changes and continued to focus on traditional gameplay genres.

Maybe you associate them as the two huge players on the video console market which dominate this segment. So what happens if the giant of the software industry, Microsoft, steps into a so far protected territory and introduces a perfect planned marketing campaign that brings the green Xbox-logo in everybody’s mind? Considering that Microsoft is a very aggressive and well financially equipped company, therefore one of the most successful in the world, you can expect a major showdown. But what will happen to the customer who should be the driving force of the ma rketing effort of those players?

Download or read book Codename Revolution written by Steven E. Jones and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2012-02-24 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nintendo’s hugely popular and influential video game console system considered as technological device and social phenomenon. The Nintendo Wii, introduced in 2006, helped usher in a moment of retro-reinvention in video game play. This hugely popular console system, codenamed Revolution during development, signaled a turn away from fully immersive, time-consuming MMORPGs or forty-hour FPS games and back toward family fun in the living room. Players using the wireless motion-sensitive controller (the Wii Remote, or “Wiimote”) play with their whole bodies, waving, swinging, swaying. The mimetic interface shifts attention from what's on the screen to what's happening in physical space. This book describes the Wii’s impact in technological, social, and cultural terms, examining the Wii as a system of interrelated hardware and software that was consciously designed to promote social play in physical space. Each chapter of Codename Revolution focuses on a major component of the Wii as a platform: the console itself, designed to be low-powered and nimble; the iconic Wii Remote; Wii Fit Plus, and its controller, the Wii Balance Board; the Wii Channels interface and Nintendo’s distribution system; and the Wii as a social platform that not only affords multiplayer options but also encourages social interaction in shared physical space. Finally, the authors connect the Wii’s revolution in mimetic interface gaming—which eventually led to the release of Sony’s Move and Microsoft’s Kinect—to some of the economic and technological conditions that influence the possibility of making something new in this arena of computing and culture.
