If you thought Nintendo opening the Switch to new indie games every quarter was a big shift for the company, wait'til you hear that it's getting into startups. The venerable video game corporation has partnered with Scrum Ventures to find companies tinkering with new ways to play with or use Nintendo's flagship console. Scrum will consider ideas for new Switch tools from startups, teams in larger companies or university researchers, Bloomberg reported. Then the early-stage venture capital firm will workshop concepts with teams before they pitch them to Nintendo this fall. Scrum will only consider hardware ideas, which in itself is a new frontier for a game company that has always relied on trusted, established suppliers.
