GN Version 5.0

Coming from Reggie Fils-Aime...

- Nintendo is working with DeNA and Apple to make sure servers are ready for launch day
- believe a high percentage of people that play the free content will convert to a paid customer
- Super Mario Run will come to Android in 2017 with a focus of getting it to those devices as quickly as possible
- Pokemon GO special events have brought players back
- the goal is to keep making tweaks to Pokemon GO and keep creating events
- Nintendo isn't placing bets on one piece of hardware, be it mobile or their traditional consoles. They want to be on all.
- Reggie doesn't believe VR has had its killer app, but does see a future for the platform
