The good thing about this stock gain is that it's coming on the heels of sustained increases, rather than a spike like Pokemon GO was. It's been quite a while since the stock dropped more than 0.2% in a day, yet it's been jumping more than 1-2% daily fairly often lately.
Sustained growth is a good sign that it will keep it's current value. Or increase further. As a stockholder I'm quite happy.
But as a stockholder who sold his previous shares back in July at that bump I'm slightly less happy.

I bought shares in the GC era.. forget how many. I was like 18 years old and maybe bought 100 shares or so. Sold during the Wii era and had quite a nice payday for a college kid. Should have held onto the stock and/or bought more later... oh well. Congrats on your trade.

Really? Well, he's always been quite a visionary...
But yeah, the steady climb is really encouraging and maybe a sign that Nintendo is rising from the ashes of the Wii U.

Anyone else want to invest in pretty much all games stocks? I'm 17% up over the last month from EA and Activision alone.

Yep. Just wait until the sequel: Rabbids X Yoshi's Story.

Nice article.
Again NTDOY apparently isn't following the Japanese stock 1 to 1, so it's not at it's 7 year high quite yet but it looks to be climbing there very steadily.

Can we buy Nintendo stock?
This is what I came to post.
Being serious though, it's good to see a return to form for Nintendo. I am very excited to see what the future of Switch holds.

Nintendo stock is sold in the US as NTDOY - each share of NTDOY stock is 1/8 share of Japanese stock (NTDOF). You can buy shares of NTDOY at any trading company, like etrade.
I bought 19 shares of the stuff right before the NX reveal, it's now worth $100 more than when I bought it. I'm a hundredaire!

I have 200 shares...I regular on stocktwits.com, if you go there you'll see some guys that have like 20,000 shares in NTDOY. I love doing the math...like say I made 500 bucks in the last month which means this guy with 20,000 shares made $50,000...jesus.

What's the minimum amount you can buy and how much would that cost?
Their stock actually reached Pokemon Go levels right after the Zelda smartphone announcement on the 14th.

Like every other big jump, I'm going to chalk this up to speculators jumping in after mobile news. Hopefully they'll stick around this time.

Depends on your brokerage. eTrade has no minimum amount you can buy, and charges a flat fee of I think $10 per trade for normal accounts.

Nintendo is obviously doomed. They need to go third party if they don't want to fade into irrelevance
Now I'm sad again.
The next peak to beat is ¥34,100 from December 2008.
What a way to end the week, Nintendo's share price had growth due to Capcom announcing Monster Hunter XX for Switch.
It was from 10am that Monster Hunter XX for Switch was announced.
Nintendo's Market Cap will soon match Sony if this keeps up.

All this hype will die down by E3,sadly
XX was really good news for them. Hopefully it portends more Monster Hunter to come.
Pokemon Stars at E3 would also be really good news for them, I'd think.

I always bet on stocks to equalize after a while, especially depending on when Capcom plans on LAUNCHING the game, but if there are any probable bombshells at E3, I wouldn't doubt the stock equalizing on a HIGH note.
Rest in peace, Iwata-san.
So.. Crypto is a mistake? Yikes...

If Switch is another Wii, the stock price may reach the Wii peak. I'm please looking forward to it! Hopefully I won't have to please understand instead in a few years!
That's a pretty nice increase in 12 days.

The hope (for investors like myself) is not that it causes another Wii peak, the hope is that the share price gets that high or higher and actually remains there. The encouraging thing in this area is that Nintendo has explicitly talked about their future hardware business being Switch focused in the long run, whereas Wii support had to be ended to support the 3DS which is what led to its sales more or less dropping off a cliff 6 years in.
Since they seem to actually have a long-term plan with the Switch as a basis, that is a very encouraging sign.
