A couple of days ago Nintendo’s annual shareholders’ meeting was held. In this way, a particular person questioned the company about the possibilities of seeing a new installment of f-zero in the near future. What was interesting, however, was the fact that this question was asked by a fan who paid a ridiculous amount of money for the opportunity to participate in this meeting.
According to Business Insider, a Twitter user, known as Momiji, spent $43,212 dollars, or $882,542 pesos, to buy 100 shares of Nintendo. This only gave him access to the investor meeting, and did not ensure that his question would be heard by the company’s directors. Fortunately, the question of him reached the ears of Shuntaro Furukawa, president of Nintendo.
I spent $43,212 to make this statement!😢💸💸💸

Momiji used this unique opportunity to question Nintendo about the possibility of seeing a new F-Zero game in the future. However, and as we already discussed, the directors have no plans to reveal at the moment. Although the statements of Shinya Takahashi don’t completely close this doorit seems that spending so much money was not worth it this time.
Currently, each of Nintendo’s shares is valued at $400 dollars, or $8,169.42 pesos. However, being part of the shareholders’ meeting does not guarantee that you will be selected to ask a question at these meetings. Although Momiji’s question did not have the answer that many expected, at least all his money wasn’t wasted, and surely 100 shares in the Big N guarantees a little money back.
On related topics, this is the full answer to Momiji’s question. Similarly, the salaries of Nintendo managers have been released.
Editor’s note:
More than the sheer amount of money, it’s funny to think that some of Nintendo’s shareholders aren’t businessmen in black suits, but just fans behind a computer who want to see a return to F-Zero, Star Fox and more classic series. .
