In an interview with Veja, Nintendo America president Devon Pritchard said Brazil is one of the company’s top‑10 video‑game markets and that the country’s fans have shown strong demand for the Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time remake and special‑edition consoles.
Pritchard noted that two‑thirds of first‑party titles released since the Nintendo Switch 2 launch have been localised in Portuguese, and that Nintendo will continue expanding Portuguese localisation over the next few years. He also promised to increase stock of special‑edition hardware to meet “continuous demand” and to bring more products to Brazilian consumers.
According to Pritchard, the 40th anniversary of the Zelda series is driving a year‑long celebration, and Nintendo aims to deepen its brand presence in Brazil through these efforts.
