Nintendo's Money Going into Bricks'n'Mortar
One thing that shouldn't be forgotten about Nintendo is that it has some decent cash reserves to call on. So, what's he going to do? It's going to spend some of it on a new R&D centre.

Andriasang reports that, "Nintendo will be investing over 12 billion yen to construct a new research and development facility in its home town of Kyoto."

This appears to be confirmation of news of the facility mooted in 2009. According to the report, "The new facility will be located in the Higashikujo Matsudacho area of Kyoto's Minami Ward. This will place it closer to Nintendo's main office, also located in the Minami Ward, than Nintendo's current Kyoto Research Center R&D facility, which is located in Kyoto's Higashiyama Ward.

"Once completed, the new building will house 1,500 employees, primarily focusing on product development, and will be Nintendo's main research facility."
