Google is leaping headfirst into the games industry with Stadia, a cloud gaming service. As always, whenever someone new enters the game market, people are eager to hear what the titans have to say. Nintendo's president Shuntaro Furukawa offered up the following response.

"I think Google's entry is welcome in the sense that the game industry will evolve as new players enter with new technologies. I do not think that the game business will change dramatically right now, but the technology will keep on coming I think it will be necessary to cope with it as it progresses."
