Nintendo Switch the brainchild of the publisher’s younger creatives

Nintendo’s Shigeru Miyamoto has told Glixel that the Nintendo Switch is really the brainchild of younger creatives.

“We were talking about was giving more opportunity and more leadership opportunity to younger people in the company,” Miyamoto explained. “So rather than me leading everything we were really expanding that role out to others that had come up.

“We have these younger people in the company who are taking the lead on Switch development and it’s really been them that have put this forward and designed this system. They’re the ones that have really shepherded it through the process,” he continued.

Nintendo plans to detail the Switch in just under two hours.
