>Nintendo’s new Switch gaming console is off to an underwhelming start.
>The new machine, a tablet-sized device with wireless controllers that can be used anywhere but also connects to TVs, will go on sale 3 March at a price of $300 in the US and £279.99 in the UK, with a brand-new Zelda game as its launch title.
>None of that, however, was enough to convince investors that it will be a big moneymaker for the Kyoto-based company, whose shares fell 5.8 perc ent to 23,750 yen (£169.96) after Nintendo executives held a presentation in Tokyo on Friday.
>Nintendo is counting on the Switch to end years of pain at its console division, which released a successor to the popular Wii in 2012 that flopped.
Nintendo will be fine. Your still gonna get your mario and zelda every few years until you die. Your kids will continue the tradition of Nintendo loyalty. They will always have the weakshit platform but Mario will live.

>2017 >still paying attention Nintendo investors None of their investors play or care about games, and if it isn't phone shit they do not care.

so you don't actually know anything about recurring patterns amongst stock investors you are, in fact, less educated that a lithuanian grade schooler

If you took those stocks down would nintendo die?
Aaron Williams
It would be extremely painfull but sadly no
Nolan Carter
>People buy shares prior to announcement hoping the announcement will be "IT LITERALLY SHITS MONEY FOR US!" >It inevitably isnt >Shares drop
Every time. Also, that one time where investors didnt realize that It was Niantic making Pokemon Go and not Nintendo so Nintendos shares took a trip to the stratosphere before inevitably plummeting within 24 hours.
David Moore
>Buy stock before big event. >Sell stock after big event
Whoa how exciting! Next you're gonna tell me that the new iphone announcement dropped Apple stocks as well!
The important bit is to see what things look like over the next few days once all the short term buyers and sellers have done their usual song and dance.
Alexander Perry
Are these the same investors that complain about the shareholders meeting is about video games?
Josiah Bell
a true patrician has no brand loyalty. There's a few great games and a lot of shit in that image. You should cherry-pick the best from every company including Nintendo.
Justin Parker
I will not support a company that keeps fucking me over
Jackson Campbell
>Sony Pajeets in full force today after Nintendo announced more games in one conference than Sony has in three years. >Nintendo actually puts dates on its games instead of Sony announcing games years before they come out
Enjoy waiting till 2019 for The Last of Cucks 2 :)
Joshua Collins
Switch didn't jew people nearly enough
Paid Online? Pshhh should have been Paid Mandatory online just to operate the console.
Jace Miller
And now that pre-orders are sold out everywhere it will go back up once the markets open.
James Thomas
Someone post the interview with the investor who complained because Iwata talked about games and the industry in investor meetings

How shocking. I bet there is more at 11, right?

It's too early to say but I think the Switch is off to a good start.
They just need to keep it up.
Luis Miller
The show was disappointing, but let's be real here: Nintendo's investors are generally retarded.
It can be summed up into- "YOU SHOULD JUST GO MOBILE" and "WII SOLD GREAT, MAKE MORE CONSOLES LIKE WII"
It's people who have no idea how gaming works and just see profits.
Andrew Adams
>have no brand loyalty >want to play online games with multiple consoles >have to pay for all the consoles >have to pay for all the games >have to pay for my current internet >have to pay a monthly fee on all the consoles to use online games on said consoles
Jacob Gonzalez
Only playing one console online for economic reasons isn't brand loyalty. Brand loyalty is literally for the stupid.
Eli Gonzalez
I keep seeing Nintendo going the way of Sega, keep making shit consoles that aren't selling, and now solely depend on video game development.
Mario will live, but on a PS5 or on PC.
John Brown
>PS5
I dont think so. I dont think sony and nintendo will ever cooperate
Jonathan Bell
>Mario will live, but on android or ios Fixed
Camden Bailey
Probably not its kind of ironic because the Playstation as we know it exists because Nintendo fucked them over when sony was developing a cd addon for the snes.

yeah great games man great games
Julian Phillips
But this happens every single time with every single console maker
but I guess its only cool to report when its nintendo
James Russell
Any games that are on other platforms (not exclusive to PS4) are greyed out, I included ports/remasters/remakes.
Any games that are exclusive but not actually out yet have a star on them
and the games with green circles are exclusive and actually playable at the moment.
I could have made a few mistakes, but overall I think I got most of it right
Nicholas Kelly
thats exactly why I dont think it will ever happen
Lincoln Cook
BUY! BUY!! BUY!!!
Jose Allen
Anyone has that image of some bussinessman that was complaining that people in some videogame company kept talking about how to make good games instead about how to make Money?
The company wasn't Nintendo, i remember that
Charles Young
im not going to filter you, your stupidity its amusing.
