Hah! Superb.

 

[Aquamarine]

Up over 1000 points now. I bet this has to do with the 3DS in China prospects.

That and anticipation.

 

[AlexMogil]

put all your money into it if you love nintendo

sounds like great idea

 

[IISANDERII]

What? a 7 dollar jump on a stock is great.

Ah, just read elsewhere that it's gone up by ¥700 per share

Their source had a lot of the E3 info right. Some highlights:

:: The “Pokken Fighters” render that was teased was running on Alpha kits, Beta kits now have advance cell shading. Going for very detailed “living anime” look.

:: The “Mainland” is an MMO-like environment that is exclusive to the Terminal and is shared by both versions.

:: Players all over the world online can chat, trade, intermingle and experience new-updated story lines on the mainland.[/I]

4DS confirmed

No, in Nintendo fashion they'll release a tri-screened portable, and clearly title it "D3S" so there's no market confusion.

Spoiler

Funny thing is, I could almost see that now. The third screen being a too-low resolution eInk screen on the outer top of the clamshell case.

Don't get your hopes up guys, probably just some big investor speculating with nintendo stocks.

Maybe, the sheep follows, his stocks goes up, then sells right before it tanks, profits

Amazing.

Maybe they'll make a clamshell 2D with XL sized screens and a flat form factor

and two analog sticks

so they won't have to pay that guy who won the lawsuit this week

Serious question
How much stock do one needs to buy to at least have some voting power?

 

[MYE]

Whatever it was, I'm sure hookers were involved.

Today was my birthday. This was secretly my wish.

 

[TunaLover]

When Nintendo is doing wrong shares go up, and vice-versa. It always works that way.

 

[bon]

Now that Luigi's not in charge anymore investors have regained their confidence in Nintendo.

Every stock have voting power. If you want control of nintendo, you'd have to own more than what yamauchi family's own.

 

[10k]

I came up with another theory. Stockholders are anticipating that Iwata will step down April 1st, 2014 when Nintendo doesn't reach their target goals and forecasts for FY2013. Much of that will depend on the xmas results.

 

[fredrancour]

The consoles-in-china thing? Mass speculation on how nintendo responds to q3 sales?

 

[Shaanyboi]

clearly it's just enthusiasm over this week's Smash Bros. updates.

 

[Lexxism]

Do we know how much cash do these two companies have now?

 

[pulga]

Clearly, the long awaited Star Fox x Metroid game is coming

EXCITE

 

[ffdgh]

Woah....that came out of nowhere. January direct round 2 incoming?

 

[Toparaman]

 

[Not]

I'm in the "external factors" boat

No way is Nintendo making any bright decisions

GTAVI is a Wii U exclusive confirmed.

1% of China is going to buy a 3DS/2DS or a Wii U.

edit: you guys thought I was trolling

 

[Morfeo]

Wow this gaf seriously reminds me of the good old days of lurking the Wii U speculation threads. Awesome gif! How far our hopes and dreams have fallen since this

 

[Phazon]

That's 13 million units. Not bad

 

[10k]

10 million units more Wii U or 3DS units would be awesome for nintendo.

 

[megabytecr]

Actually Nintendo is in a good position to sell the 2DS there, great quality, great library and cheap as fuck.

 

[Shanlei91]

I love this so much hahahaha

Off-topic, but the 5th Element is such a good movie.

[HeisenbergLannister]

Starfox with four player co-op local and online.

That would be great news for Nintendo...

Why hasn't someone made a gif out of Leeloo and the elements saving the world? I feel like there's some major gif material in the making there.

A power-up appears and enemies just gun for it, just to keep you from getting it.

 

[thefro]

Yep, if they price their stuff on the eShop correctly for the market it could be huge for them. The 2DS they can definitely make affordably.

Now I'm hyped.

Iwata is leaving soon. I can see it your eyes.

 

[jkh33]

Hilarious.

Yup. Might be worth buying shares at this current price because both Iwata and Patcher have made VERY ambitious sales forecasts for this financial year, 9m and 6m respectively, so there's something on the way soon that's going to boost sales considerably. Those two forcasts would give the Wii U an installed userbase of 12m/9m before the end of the financial year and I can't see any other franchises boosting that amount of sales.

Plus the GamePad's NFC functionality means that Nintendo can jump on the Skylanders bandwagon, I'd say that cards are more likely than figurines because they'll be cheaper to produce and easier for people to store, meaning they'll be able to buy more.

I think we're going to get a Wii U Pokemon announcement at the end of the month at the investor's meeting. I'm surprised that Nintendo didn't have this ready to launch last year tbh.

 

[InsaneZero]

China, the new frontier.

Also possibly includes speculation of a new strategy change.

 

[Clawww]

ppl have been deluding themselves about a pokemon MMO or online-type game for years

but with China in the mix... holy shit...
