Nintendo’s NX console will not follow the path laid out by either the Wii or the Wii U.
“I’ve said it’s different and obviously a new experience,” Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima told TIME.
“If you look back to the beginning of our conversation today, we talked about the transition from Wii hardware to the Wii U hardware and how difficult it is to explain to the consumer base what is different and new about the new hardware. It’s difficult to convince them to switch from their current platform to the next platform.
“That being said, I can assure you we’re not building the next version of Wii or Wii U. It’s something unique and different. It’s something where we have to move away from those platforms in order to make it something that will appeal to our consumer base.”
Kimishima also vowed to support existing Wii U owners with ongoing software releases.
“As you know within the game business momentum is key,” he added. “When you have momentum, whether it’s a platform or software, sales increase. At this point in the Wii U lifespan, we’re looking at 10m sell-through for the hardware itself, which is just about a tenth of what we sold overall for Wii.
“What I want to do, I think our first job right now is to make sure that the customers, those 10m customers who have a Wii U at home have software to play. And we need to make sure that they are satisfied with their purchase and continue to enjoy playing on this platform. So we can’t just abandon them.
“Of course we are working on NX and looking at the experiences we can bring to that platform. But first our job at this point is to support the consumers who have purchase Wii U and make sure that they have software experiences available to them.”

The Quality of Life aspirations of the late Satoru Iwata remain in development at Nintendo.
That’s the message from Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima, although the exec remained relatively cagey on the subject in what was an otherwise pretty frank interview.
“Mr Iwata had, when he previously talked about the quality of life initiative, I believe he had talked about it being related to sleep and fatigue,” Kimishima told TIME. “And the only information I really have now is to say that the quality of life initiative is still under development, and I have no further information to share.
“It’s just not at the point in development where I feel I can make any announcements at this time.”
Quality of Life was revealed back in January 2014, with the first QOL product outlined in October. Analysts had speculated, however, that the entire strategy was under threat.
Elsewhere in the interview, the platform holder boss also admitted that while Amiibo has been a big sales hit things haven’t quite panned out as the company expected.
“A challenge that we’re facing right now is, our earliest goal for the Amiibo was to have these connected to software and have them enhance the play experience for the consumer and increase that attractiveness of that combination,” he added.
“What we’re seeing instead is that the Amiibo are being picked up more as a collection item at this point, rather than, say, as an interactive item with software. And so we haven’t really established them as an enhancement for all of our software at this point.
“I think again that challenge is, how can we connect that IP to our software in general, and using the Amiibo to further enhance the play activity will allow us to get more people looking at, they see the Amiibo, they tie it back to the game experience, and then we’re creating a stronger connection with general knowledge of our IP and that fun experience they have.”

Tatsumi Kimishima has big shoes to fill as the new president of Nintendo, following the unexpected death of Satoru Iwata earlier this year. Kimishima laid out his winding path toward leadership to Time, noting his involvement in the Great Wii Shortages of the mid-2000s and painting himself as a silent puppet master pulling strings across Nintendo for decades. He also laid out bits of his vision for the future, including some insight into Nintendo's mysterious new console, the NX.
"I can assure you we're not building the next version of Wii or Wii U," he told Time. "[NX] is something unique and different. It's something where we have to move away from those platforms in order to make it something that will appeal."
Nintendo hasn't said much else about the NX, aside from the fact that it definitely doesn't run on Android. A US patent filed in February offers a whisper of detail, mentioning a "stationary game console" that doesn't include a disc drive.
Alongside his company history, Kimishima recalled a moment he shared with Iwata around 2007, when Nintendo was struggling to keep enough DS handhelds and Wiis on shelves in the US. Kimishima apparently worked behind the scenes to organize Nintendo's international businesses and keep US stores stocked for the holidays.
"At one point even Mr. Iwata was saying, you know, he sort of whispered to me, 'Mr. Kimishima, that's impossible, that's not a realistic goal.' And I said 'No, I think it is.' And that's again, saying it and repeating it and getting everyone onboard, that's sort of the style that I adopted," Kimishima said.

News from EmuCR
 Project64 Git (2015/12/03) is compiled. Project 64 is a proprietary Nintendo 64 emulator for Windows. It employs a plug-in system that allows third-party software developers to create their own implementation of a specified component. Project64 allows the user to play Nintendo 64 games on a computer by reading ROM images, either dumped from the read-only memory of a Nintendo 64 cartridge or created directly on the computer as homebrew. Project64 started as an exercise by Jabo and zilmar in an attempt to see if they were capable of programming a Nintendo 64 emulator. It's open source now....More
