  • 240 CASE STUDY of NINTENDO AS TRADITIONAL COMPANY in JAPAN KHAIRI MOHAMED OMAR Applied Science University, Bahrain ABSTRACT
    Qualitative and Quantitative Research Review, Vol 3, Issue 1, 2018 ISSN No: 2462-1978 eISSNNo: 2462-2117 CASE STUDY OF NINTENDO AS TRADITIONAL COMPANY IN JAPAN KHAIRI MOHAMED OMAR Applied science University, Bahrain ABSTRACT Each nation has own corporate issues that relates to nation’s corporate style. According to research by OECD, Mexico is the highest rate of average working hours annually in the world (“Hour worked,” 2017). It is 2,255 hours per worker in annual. Since hour in a year is 8,760, people in Mexico are working about a fourth part of a year. Assuming that workers do not need to work on weekend, then hours in a year that workers need work should be around 6,240 hours that it flexibly changes by the year. People in Mexico are working at least 8 hours daily. Claire (2015) stated that long working hours will lead to inadequate sleeping hours, and it causes insufficient working performance in research. For Japan, Japanese corporate management is sometimes argued as an issue. For example, workers in Japan increase their salary based on their seniority. It is not sometimes considered their actual ability, instead of that; company more considers their career and experience. This kind of Japanese traditional working system more tends to be applied by old company in Japan. Since Nintendo has an old history, these management implications are more applicable. Therefore, this case will be about Japanese-traditional-style management strategy of Nintendo. NINTENDO BACKGROUND Nintendo is one of the market leaders in a gaming industry. In particular, it is known as gaming hardware manufacturing corporation.

  • Should You Buy the Nintendo Switch?
    Should You Buy the Nintendo Switch? By Nathaniel Evans I have been playing Nintendo consoles since I was 6 years old. I first played games offered by Nintendo Game Boy Advance and, as the years went by, I moved on to the Nintendo Ds then the Nintendo Wii. I own every single console ever made by Nintendo, except the Nintendo Wii-U because it would have been redundant. Having been a huge Nintendo fan my entire life and based on my experience with the consoles, I can attest that the Nintendo Switch is well worth the money and just may be the best console that they have ever produced. If you have not bought a Nintendo Switch yet, allow me to share with you why I did. The Nintendo Switch is not any run of the mill console. Yes, it outputs video of your games to a television just like any other console, but it has one added benefit, portability. Haven’t you ever wanted to just take your PS4 or Xbox One anywhere at any time, but cannot because it must be tethered to a television at all times? Well, the Switch has you backed up since the Switch not only outputs to a television screen, but it is also a tablet that allows you to play video games anywhere and at any time on the built in screen. Ever notice how creative Nintendo’s hardware is compared to the competition? They were one of the first to have an analog stick fully integrated into a console in the 90s on the Nintendo 64, they were the first to fully integrate motion control gaming into a console with the Wii, and in the recent past, they were the first to make a console that is fully portable and still have it pack a graphics punch.
