Nintendo has been in the torment from some time now, trying to stay competitive in a market made tougher by the release of Sony and Microsoft’s consoles.
So, is Nintendo looking towards the future ? Towards its next console? Well, that’s what a job offer coming from the company (available here) is suggesting. We can see that Nintendo is looking for a Senior Software Engineer to work in R&D. The type of competence someone would need to have to start buiding a new console. The requirements clearly state the need for experience in multiple fields, some being video and graphic creation. Something needed to revolutionize, let’s say, a console like the Wii U. Or start designing another one completely.
A few months back, rumors were echoed about the creation of a new machine: the Fusion. A hybrid between a home console and a portable playing station. Will we get to see this new installment of the Nintendo hardwares come to us soon? I guess we will have to wait for the next E3 in 2015.
