The CEO of Ubisoft, Yves Guillemot, again raised the issue of Nintendo NX at a meeting of shareholders of the company and expressed his opinion about it.

According to Yves Guillemot, “Nintendo will be back in the race with the NX.” As it was told a few days ago also, Yves Guillemot, CEO of Ubisoft, is particularly enthusiastic about Nintendo NX, to the point that he had said that the house of Kyoto has learned from the mistakes made with the Wii U and had anticipated that the approach of the new console will be innovative and unique.

Ubisoft is a leading partner of Nintendo third party, and Yves seem to have much confidence in the house of Kyoto and almost certainly the French publisher is working on new titles for NX, in addition to previously announced Just Dance for 2017.

According to the latest rumor, the next episode of Beyond Good & Evil series could be exclusive to Nintendo NX, after years of absence and silence from the Michel Ancel franchise.

The NX is the only console that can cause the triumph for Nintendo again and after such a long wait time our expectations are great, since a flop Nintendo can no longer be afforded. It could quite possibly be the most important console of all time and we suspect Nintendo knows it. But since we have little information about their upcoming console, we can not be making valid conclusions also.

Nintendo NX is scheduled to release on March 2017.
