Good to hear. Human creativity will likely still outpace AI creativitiy for quite a while.

Good ai sucks

Probably because they care about the quality of their games

Does this include DLSS? Or is this talking about game design

Good, imagine how messed up lore could get if generative AI comes in. One character says something dumb like Link is an undercover minion of Ganon and now, it’s canon that Link is actually evil.

For all the criticism of Nintendo, of which there are many, one thing they have consistently proved is that they believe in in making good quality, creatively inspired video games.

As expected from Nintendo, quality comes first

Great news.

Nintendo really showing everyone how they were always right and ahead of the curve in almost everything they’re doing.
You love to see it.

I knew they wouldn’t. The way their games are always polished they would never skip corners like that.

They don’t need to. They have more money than ever, and they have a policy to not lay off anyone. AI is used to reduce costs and reduce staff. Nintendo does not need that.

King shit

Genuine created gameplay by actual designers before everything else. Very well done Nintendo 👍🏻

I think Nintendo can handle making their own first party games. They’ve mastered their own games and sure don’t need a.i to help them.

I don’t know about the new president but Iwata said he was against layoffs because it would lower employee morale and just decrease quality of their games, during the wii u era he took a 50% pay cut to prevent layoffs. I don’t think Nintendo is out here itching to replace all their workers with AI, but sadly can’t say the same about other (mainly western) companies

Well… It would be pretty stupid to do something. So yeah, makes sense.

The actual source does not say they wont use generative AI:
> “Generative AI, which has been a hot topic in recent years, can be more creative, but we also recognize that it has issues with intellectual property rights.
> “We have decades of know-how in creating optimal gaming experiences for our customers, and while we remain flexible in responding to technological developments, we hope to continue to deliver value that is unique to us and cannot be achieved through technology alone.”

Tomorrow: Nintendo didn’t say they wouldn’t use generative AI. /s Just like the story about scalpers.

When they come out and say they aren’t. I always assume that’s exactly what’s happening.

Too bad Mario Party Jamboree isn’t their first Party game 😱

Is is said that Miyazaki the animation director doesn’t like AI in his animation either. Like the persistence from these masters.

#### Fantastic!. Great IP is their bread and butter. If they don’t have that the they got nothing.

The will use degenerative AI to track copyright infringements.

Nintendo is still king because they are the only big company out there who has it in their core to make video games as art by people for people.
👍⚡️✌️

I feel like that was the default assumption, but alright.

I don’t understand why everybody is so focused on using AI for creativity instead of using AI for detail? We’ve seen the real benefits of what machine learning is capable of with all the DLSS technology that was originally dubbed a marketing ploy by a mass audience. AI is not coming for human creativity and the only ones scared of this are the people that lack it. It’s just another tool, but a damn powerful one at that. Learn to use it correctly and the benefits could be outstanding. It’s all about the infinitesimal details we just frankly don’t have the time for.
