GN Version 5.0

The following comes from Nintendo's next president, Shuntaro Furukawa...

- Switch is on sale in 50 countries now
- the goal is to start selling it in the Middle East And South East Asia
- Furukawa was chosen as new president because he knows how to get the most out of development teams
- Furukawa spent the last 2 years mapping out Nintendo's future
- Furukawa wants to change Nintendo internally
- this includes a new committee consisting of five directors who will decide on product ideas together
- Furukawa will be included on the committee, and it seems he thinks there were too many people involved in the decision-making process before
