LOS ANGELES: Nintendo is collaborating with Tencent to bring its Switch console to China, but the company is keeping its expectations for expansion into China reasonable, Shuntaro Furukawa, Nintendo’s president, explained during Nintendo’s financial results briefing for the fiscal year which ended March 2019.
Tencent Holdings Limited applied for game console review to launch the Switch console in China, which is in line with the country’s strict gaming regulations. Though Tencent holds a large position in the Chinese gaming market, China’s gaming industry is driven by its mobile and PC games.
