When it comes to launching new consoles and developing fresh tech, the Nintendo team isn't immune to doubt.
Nintendo has really pushed the boundaries over the last decade or so, not just with regards to making great video games, but also by totally revamping the sort of technology that we play these games on. But this sort of industry-changing console development doesn't come without risk, and now we've learned that there are "often doubts" from internal members of staff.
The Nintendo Wii provides one example of Nintendo forging its own path: this home console chose to ignore the push for HD graphics that other manufacturers were working towards at the time, instead opting to put its emphasis on interactivity and motion controls. The launch of the Nintendo Switch was an equally game-changing moment, with Nintendo creating a household/handheld hybrid while everyone else was thinking about game streaming and their next-gen consoles.
