Hardware and software together
Nintendo’s core corporate description is the manufacture and sale of home entertainment products. Its systems and games are developed as related parts of an entertainment experience, rather than as separate businesses serving unrelated audiences. The company’s history spans dedicated handheld and home consoles, leading to the Nintendo Switch family and subsequent hardware development. [1] [2]
A wider entertainment business
Nintendo’s current corporate materials describe entertainment products and experiences extending beyond its original playing-card business. In June 2026, it announced construction of a technology development centre as a future research base for software and hardware, including development infrastructure. Its headquarters remain in Kyoto, alongside a wider network of development facilities and overseas operating companies that supports the entertainment business. [3] [4]
