Unless you've been living under a rock, you've most definitely heard about Nintendo's difficulties what with the Wii U falling massively short of its projected sales and Nintendo suffering quite a hit to its stocks.
This must've had any Nintendo fan worried for the future of the company, but Iwata just today gave a press conference to relieve those fears and talk about what it plans to do in the future.
It can be read here.

It's quite worth the read, especially when you get to the part about Nintendo developing a system that's not a console, but something "non-wearable". Not exactly sure what it means by that. It talks about Nintendo wanting to focus on the health of its consumers, so with that you could probably assume it being something similar to the Kinect, but I really hope that isn't it. More details have been promised for later in 2014.
There's also other stuff, which I can sum up for you if you don't really want to read the entire thing like THE LAZY ♥♥♥ YOU ARE.
-the possibility of them releasing software of the Nintendo brand on smart devices to reach a bigger user base, although it's not made clear if they'd be willing to make Nintendo games for smart devices or simply something that gives a taste of Nintendo games to people without Nintendo consoles
-a new system where the more you play, buy, and share your experiences with other people of Nintendo games, you get specialized deals and can get games for cheaper
-them expanding the use of character IPs. Not very clear what this means, but what it could mean is more things like them out-sourcing first party games and getting stuff like Other M (WHICH WOULD BE BAD), or getting stuff like the Minish Cap, Four Swords, and Oracle Zelda games (which would be fantastic). This could also mean having Nintendo IPs in movies or other forms of media
It's not like I didn't sum up the entire thing in just my post, but what the hell. You guys can discuss if you so desire.

Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic

I'm glad they're looking forward to fixing the Wii-U, as it's pretty much one of my favorite consoles after some of the other ones like 3DS and N64.

I'm glad Nintendo's finally stepping it up again and giving gamers what they want on the wii u, and health nuts what they want on that quality of life platform. I think the problem Nintendo had was the fact that they were overusing Mario, Zelda, Kirby, and Pokemon. Do you know how awesome a Star Fox game that plays like Star Fox 64 with online multiplayer would be for the Wii U? How about a new F-Zero game? We haven't had one of those in forever.
I'm putting my entire signature in a spoiler just so I don't extend the page.
Spoiler: show

Am I the only one that feels like they should totally redo and enhance the arwing controls from the unreleased Star Fox 2 on the SNES? Sure, they technically remade the game with Star Fox Command on the DS, but it didn't feel the same. And it didn't have that awesome bipedal function for the Arwing.
And I sure as hell hope they make a new Star Fox game. Or even better, a new Ice climber game. That's something we haven't seen.
