NEW INTERVIEW: Former Chairman of Sony Entertainment on Nintendo& #39;s Everlasting Intellectual Property

& #39;Mario is probably impervious to extinction& #39;

Nintendo has 100 years of experience in gaming.

& #39;They are the masters in this field& #39;

& #39;As a platform holder, our job is to create a wider audience, continually.& #39;

& #39;I think Nintendo really understands the game design maxims for a handheld platform and then how to leverage their very powerful IP vault in that medium.& #39;

It seems Fortnite and Roblox is additive to the industry and not exactly zero-sum vs AAA games?

Parallels between gaming and film IP

& #39;because gaming is so tied to technology (which) has to keep moving forward in order to bring more immersive experiences, previous generation games are not compatible with the new technology& #39;

& #39;If you talk about the IP power of gaming, it’s true, but it has these breaks in the cycle, where entire franchises can disappear, because you can’t access them anymore& #39;& #39;

The faster technology moves, the greater the challenge in sustaining the value of the IP

& #39;Given their history, I think it would be very difficult for Nintendo to do a bad iteration of Mario& #39;
