As you might have heard, Nintendo is working on their new game console (Nintendo NX). There’s not much info about this product, but it could potentially be a more powerful hardware product capable of running very heavy games, powered by modern tech like Unreal Engine 4 or Cryengine. It seems like this new engineer position might be connected with the production of software for the system. Looks very intriguing.
