Nintendo has officially opened a new subsidiary in Taiwan. They’ve also opened up a website for the company and confirmed that it will start operation on April 1.
The website states the following:
Thank you for your long-term support and love, I would like to express my sincere thanks. In order to further strengthen the business foundation in the Taiwan market and improve the service quality of customers, the company will establish a new local legal person “Taiwan Nintendo Co., Ltd.” as one of the subsidiaries of Nintendo Co., Ltd.
Starting from April 1, 2025, we will officially transfer our business in Taiwan to “Taiwan Nintendo Co., Ltd.”, and adhere to the business philosophy of Nintendo Group to continue to promote business development.
Recently, a new patent for Nintendo Switch 2 surfaced which outlines the mouse functions of the new Joy-Con controllers. The patent is mostly in Japanese, but a basic description was provided in English. It also hints at a brand-new pro controller.
Previously, Furukawa confirmed that the company is already preparing measures against scalpers when the Nintendo Switch 2 console launches later this year. Furukawa also stated that the company would continue to support the original Switch after Switch 2’s launch as long as demand for the console remains.
Nintendo Switch 2 features a new stand, new magnetic joycons, a mysterious new button, and a new dock and handheld base. The console will likely have Hall Effect sticks, which eliminate the stick drift problems of the original Nintendo Switch. Nintendo will reveal more official details about the console at the April 2 Nintendo Direct.
Lastly, fans hoping to try the console out can attend the Switch 2 experience, an event that will be held worldwide.
