He decided to change the very concept of video games Iwata wanted to make video games easier to pick up and more relevant to people’s lives Out of this idea came the Nintendo DS People interacted more directly with the game by using a touch screen instead of just a set of buttons Iwata took this idea to the extreme with the motion-based Wii Now, just by using natural body movements, players can enjoy playing all sorts of games The kinds of games produced changed as well Along with the regular role-playing game (RPG), action, and sport games, new kinds of “games” were designed Some of these new games, like Brain Age, improved thinking abilities Others, like Wii Fit, improved fitness This has brought in a new age of gaming Everyone from grandparents to their grandchildren seems to be playing Nintendo products With all that we have seen so far, we can only wonder what is next for Iwata Surely it will be something groundbreaking!
