A portion of a Nintendo Life interview with Shin'en...

NL: As we talk the game has just launched in the eShop: what are your early instincts on its reception. Has the response to its launch been what you hoped it would be?

S: We had a bet running in the company on how many copies would be sold on day one. Martin called the highest number. And he was right. It was almost exactly the number he predicted. We are very pleased with the sales so far, but on the other side our preceding investment was very high as well. Anyway, currently it looks pretty bright for the sales.

NL: This seems to be a project that's demanded a lot of your team. What's next for Shin'en - are you planning any expansions for FAST Racing NEO, do you plan to move onto fresh projects?

S: There are already some FRN improvements planned along with fixes. Detailed plans for FRN's future will be made next year.
We also started working on some new game prototypes, like we always do.
