Many Traditional Game Companies Have Begun To Sell Virtual Props In The Form Of NFT, Such As Konami And Yadali. Although They Have Not Launched Blockchain Games In The Real Sense, Such An Attempt Alone Has Attracted A Lot Of Criticism.

Fils Aim é Even Cited The Example Of Nintendo's Game Animal Crossing, Saying That The Combination Of The Game And Blockchain Can Allow Players To Gain Profits By Creating In The Game.
"I'm A Believer In Blockchain. I Think Blockchain Is A Very Attractive Technology. I'm Also A Believer In The Concept Of 'playing Myself' In Video Games," He Said
"Let's Put It This Way. I May Play A Game For 50 Hours, 100 Hours And 300 Hours. Wouldn't It Be Great If I Could Change The Previous Investment Into Money When I Abandoned The Pit?"
"I Dare Say That If I Can Sell My Island On The Animal Crossing, Someone Will Be Willing To Buy It. If Only I Could Pay Back The Money. And Blockchain Technology Allows This Behavior From The Code Level."
"So I Have Become A Believer In The Direction Of Blockchain Technology. But My View Is Based On The Premise That It Should Be Useful To Players, Not Just For Developers To Make More Money."
"In A Word, It Is Good For Players. I See Such An Opportunity."
At The Beginning Of This Year, Nintendo Also Expressed Its Interest In NFT And Metauniverse In The Investor Q & A Session, But Also Proposed To See What Specific Role These Technologies Play In Attracting Users Before Taking Action.
