After the lean years of the Wii U, Nintendo are absolutely rolling in it. They’ve now reported 17 million Switches sold in just over a year, 10 million copies of Super Mario Odyssey and some nicely filled coffers to give themselves a bit more financial stability. It makes this the right time for Tatsumi Kimishima to step down as president, having taken on the mantle in the wake of Satoru Iwata’s untimely death, and pass the baton back to a younger generation.
The future looks really bright for Nintendo, and Shuntaro Furukawa will likely be leading the company for the next decade. Who knows where they will be in 10 years time?

May is all about Soviet Dream Machines in World of Tanks on console. During the month you’ll be earning points for the event when you place in the top five spots of your team during multiplayer battles. These can then be redeemed for prizes of your own choosing, such as Premium time, Boost Ops and Premium tanks. This includes the new T-29, heavyweight KV-220-2, T-50-2 and ISU-122S.
To be fair, the dream Soviet machine wasn’t exactly going to be a Lada, was it?
