Nintendo Stock Jumps To 15,020 Yen Per Share

Nintendo stock has jumped to 15,020 yen per share, which is apparently the biggest surge for the company since July 2011. The shares rise happened today, January 8th, after China temporarily suspended a long-running ban on selling video game consoles. The country outlawed systems like Wii U in an effort to protect young people from the supposed negative influence of video games.

“Nintendo has to explore markets in Asia including China in order to increase its sales and profit,” said Iwai Cosmo Holdings analyst Tomoaki Kawasaki. “China is a promising market, even though there is a risk games will be pirated.”

          I believe this is a good thing… China had an 11 year ban on video game consoles and it lifted today. Nintendo doesn’t really produce gory games or games that may get China concerned.
          Also, Twitter and Facebook are banned there, so Nintendo’s Miiverse will be a freakin’ heaven-social network to them!! :D (Cuz it’s like the only one there)
          (Plus, Sony’s stock price has risen 1.3% to 1,825 yen per share…
          NINTENDO’S stock has risen close to 11% in Japan, jumping up to 15,850 yen!!
          Wii U Sales will rise! :D

    1. Of course this is good. It shows that investidors are satisfied with Nintendo results on the last months and they see the company may have a promising future

            1. Nintendo is my Blood

              Firstly, the guy who posted that also has “King of the Trolls” literally under his screen name so are we to take what he says seriously? secondly if this article WERE legit, you are taking in out of context, Iwata said it failed as a successor to the original Wii, which is to be expected as the nothing could be a worthy succesor to the groundbreaking technology that the Wii was at the time of it’s release, Iwata is not saying the Wii U is an alround failure, two completely different things

  1. im pretty sure they already had the wii at every corner store there already and the games cost 5 dollars because theyre illegal copies

        1. Well, you make a statement about Miiverse being full of fanboys, I made a statement about you being full of shit, I don’t know if that makes me a fanboy but you blurting out “Miiverse is full of fanboys?” this article isnt even about Miiverse, so either you want to start a flame war, you are just being a troll, or you have a form of torretz, you pick

            1. Not really but saying “Miiverse is full of fanboys” on an article that isn’t even about Miiverse, says that either you are looking to start a fight or you are just desperate for attention, what you did is like someone going to a funeral and than saying to the mourners “So when is this service going to finish, I have places to be” it’s inappropriate for the current situation and it makes you seem like you are full of shit

              1. I just went to battle with a Luigi fanboy on Miiverse. I know it isn’t related to this article. Sorry for not stating that.

                1. Fanboys can be annoying but always ask yourself “if i dont like fanboys, dont go where fans and fanboys gather” example: the ice guy who is always so pissed off with Nintendo, he obviously doesnt think with basic logic, why does he come to Nintendo sites like this just to whine about the Wii U? how does that even help his case? we should learn from his mistakes

            1. proof? Is it stated as fact by goverment science…ect. That a matter of your opinion. I post stuff from art academy, I draw, ect. Some people just like the games the system have can’t you just accept that? I’m getting a ps4, and possible(if microsoft drops the price or kinect) xbox one. I don’t have the time for PC gaming, it requires more time and effort which I can’t do right now since I’m going to college. I’ll get a pc when I’m ready for it. In the end let people do what they enjoy. If it bothers u let them do, it be the better man. If they purely stupid like life threats ect take action.

    1. As much as I hate to say it, Nintendo is a dangerous negative influence. At least on 7-year olds. My brother gave our nephew a 2DS for Christmas, and he’s so obsessed with it that he never wants to put it down. He doesn’t even want to go to school because of it (he was crying his eyes out because he didn’t want to go). Makes me realize how “I” was when I was a kid. I was the same way.

      The world of Nintendo was so exciting and magical that I never wanted to leave it (what kid wouldn’t want to play Nintendo all day instead of go to school?). I took it to the extremes. I was so sucked in to Nintendo’s magical world that, to this very day, I feel that people are out of their minds when they talk trash about Nintendo (or when they prefer the Crapbox or Gaystation). For me, that’s kinda like talking trash about air, or oxygen.

      Nintendo really does have a powerful influence on many.

      1. Some people do take it too seriously, your nephew may be having more serious psychological issues that perhaps would require some help, I hope you excuse me for prying into your personal business

      2. Oh my god, MrRetroJunkie, you repulsive little degenerate. It’s pretty obvious that you live in a fantasy Nintendo world. Get the fuck out of there and become a productive human being.

        1. Look who’s talking. Ever heard of the phrase “pot calling the kettle black”? I swear, I don’t care how long I stay away, I come back, and you’re still on here bitching about how sucky Nintendo Is etc. Do you get some sort of power trip from it or something?

    1. This is the Sonyan General and his lieutenant stationed in the Dragon Empire against our Nintendoling swarm…

  3. damn thats going to be a lot of people losing money when wii u discontinues in 2015!!!!! either way if wii u doesnt discontinue then it will just be the worst home console since the saturn and also the worst selling, making those people pissed they invested into trash. nintendo really should start making coffins for all their shitty wii u’s.

    1. Why are you so pissed of with the Wii U, you seem to have some serious mental issues, always bitching about Nintendo and throwing a hissy fit every 2 seconds

      1. yeah im so pissed and throwing a fit hahahah are you retarded man!! you guys just cant handle the truth that your plastic your attached to is a failed product. seriously man its plastic not your best friend or family members!! im not personally attacking you guys so stop acting like it, its sad. just accept the facts that wii u is shit and doesnt stand a chance against the other systems. after the big zelda game in 2015 what does it have?? 3rd party, anything?? i cant even understand why people think im pissed because im honest how much of a fail nintendo is or when they fail. ill give credit where its deserved like the 3ds and games like xenoblade, that are fresh and amazing and not just mario and zelda. once you accept nintendo has turned into shit with the hundreds of reasons you could find, if you just stopped accepting everything nintendo gives you maybe they will change for the better (like the xbox one changing its drm policies) ever since iwata stepped in and they released the wii, nintendo has gone to shit and everyone knows it but the corporate slave fanboys that remain strapped in. look at gamecube, the 64, snes, the nes and look now.

          1. You sound like a delusional faggot who just got knocked out of a make-believe kiddy Nintendo fantasy world. Stop fucking Mario’s dick and be a real fucking man.

            1. I can tell you’re just an immature little boy by your choice of words. I may take up for Nintendo 24/7, but you probably play even more than I do. Yet you come here on like a daily basis just to do more Nintendo bashing. Your parents must be very proud of you.

          2. you sound like your in elemantary school but your in your 30’s. who sais that past the age of 5. im not surprised that you are this attached to nintendo like the way you said above. its really sad, act your age for fucks sake.

            1. Most people my age are dull and boring. I’ve always tried to be just the opposite. I’ve tried my hardest to remain a kid in every way that I could.

        1. I call em as I see em, and I see that you act as if Nintendo raped you killed your mother and sold her body to carnivores, you have some serious mental problems that you should look into, you act waaay more butt hurt than most of these trolls so it seems as if you have some family issues, maybe if you didnt spaz out like a little whiney biotch people would actually like you, Nintendo have changed, get over it, stop being such a butthurt nostagia fag

          1. you are way to attached to nintendo. you probably sit on miiverse all day in your crib. miiverse where a social reject feels welcome!!!!!

              1. you just said your a social reject who sits on miiverse all day in his crib and that you are overly attached to nintendo. thats not surprising how you pretty much show that from how defensive your getting.

                1. At least I dont have an obsession with trolling, Iceazeama trolling since 1999, you should put that on your resume, no wonder people call you eczema, you are a butthurt itchy faggot, you should just dig yourself a hole and just let nature take its course, I’m sure it will make your mother happy to see her mistake die

                  1. hello nintendo is my life or blood, what the difference.. your so pathetic man. ive been gone and hardly been here at all but right when im back you are here, now making a retarded alt because you are that obsessed with me. you said ive been trolling since 1999 before in your comments hahahah your so pathetic man. you are also saying your same old insults. you dont got much besides being a nintendo fanboy. you just said it above and now your crying about it.

                    1. I don’t care how many people you think i am but that doesnt change the fact that you are a little pussy that has been butthurt for over 10 years, any moron can do a google search and damn youve bitching on almost 10 pages worth of websites, just ask google, I mean who in world is so fucking stupid to choose a screen name that sounds/based on the name of a skin condition, it appears that you are the only one thats who, so taking the fact that their is a comment made on a website website made under your screen name in 1999, we can assume you were either 15-25 years old, factor in the time between 1999 and 2014… means that you are between the age of 30 to 40 years of age, give or take, you are a fucking adult with Eczema and act like a complete dipshit on a Nintendo website for kids, you are fucking middle aged you pedophile you should be put in jail and anal raped until you die you sick mother fucker

                      1. Oh look what I found It’s either icy or his 13 year old girlfriend, Its all coming together,

            1. @ MaNoFtHeMaTcH,
              I agree. Why can’t everyone just get along and talk nice to each other? It’s just like when I was in school. There’s always one or two bad apples that ruins everything.

              1. iceazeama is more of a shit than an apple, did you know he actually has eczema and that is how he got his name?

              2. “you are a butthurt itchy faggot, you should just dig yourself a hole and just let nature take its course, I’m sure it will make your mother happy to see her mistake die”

                really?? you think that no life fag nintendo is my blood, now making alts to use against me is someone who talks nice to someone.

                1. You are really classified as a someone, you are a pedophile, god your mother should be proud of you, whose your father, he should be slaughtered for even being related to a child molester like you

                  1. now that you just exposed yourself as nindendo is my blood and just exposed you for all your pathetic make up stories, how you are obsessed with me. who knows how many hours a day or times you google search my name. seriously i havnt been here much at all for a while and then this, are you that pathetic, were you just waiting for me to come back?? have of your commenets are mentioning me!!!! you say the same exact things and insults to me in this alt than your actual user name. its obvious. you go to any lengths doing stuff, its probably what you do all day is think of me, wouldnt be surprised seeing all of this. then i just showed you when iceazeama was created september 10, 2012 and thats how long ive been anywhere. you are a loser man, one of those people that just have no lifes. say whatever the fuck you want man. your pathetic for real. in real life your pathetic, there is no way someone puts this much effort in something like this to someone annonymous over the internet.

      2. so wii u is the worst? i bet you said the 3ds was a flop when you first heard about it so tell me, is the 3ds a flop, worst handheld, lost to vita? nope its none. wii u is not the worst of anything, its struggling cuz people either want the wii u to cost $50 or have wii u games to be ported to the android and ios (like hell either will happen), once the triple-a games roll in it will do better and pull a 3ds. the only console that is not a flop but failing is the vita, xbone will the the universe’s shittiest console cuz its a device to let the nsa spy on you, you have to have a sound equivalent of something using hypervoice (exploud), you have to pay for stuff that is normally free like twitter, skype, paying for an already paid service (netfix, the internet), paying in order to go online (online multiplayer), i can go on so xbone will be the first one to pull a sega or microsoft will retire from the gaming industry, well retire xbox but continue with windows gaming. also iceazeama you must be ass hurt that bayonetta 2 will never be ported to xdone and ps4, why? micro and sony said no to bayo2.

        1. no ill just buy bayonetta 2 for wii u idiot. how many times do i have to say i own one, all it does is collect dust because its a better vacuum cleaner than a vidiogame system. xbox one is a piece of shit like you said but it will get 3rd party games and has everything else that should be standard like good online. otherwise microsoft didnt make their system shit like nintendo did with wii u. thats the difference between the 2, after 2015 and zelda u, wii u might as well be dead.

    2. China is a big opportunity for Nintendo, if they are smart, they will include Wiimote, Nunchuck, Controller pro with Gamepad in the box.

      1. wiimote (and nunchuck somewhat) I can agree with, pro controller is unnecessary.

        China has always had “substitutes” for Nintendo products and games, I wonder how real things will do there.

    3. Not sure how this will fare.
      Depends how deep and widespread the despise of Japan is.
      Microsoft will try to cash in this new opportunity, to make up for imminent failure in Japan, but they will probably just make some gimped xbox’s to sell there.

    4. “China is a promising market, even though there is a risk games will be pirated.”

      that risk is everywhere on the market Oo

      so far no one has cracked the wii u or at least doesn’t want to share their findings (for that exact same reason) so as of now no games can be pirated

    5. I think nintendo will do well in china. Buy nature chinese are family oriented and religious. Its the 1 country where 3rd part support may hinder rather than help as 3rd parties lean more towards making violent murder rape games and that wont win friends there. I sold gta 5 right off such an over rated piece of crap rock star is such a 1 hit wonder I wish they would finally admit it. I would love to see if they could make a new game that isnt gta and dont even use the same system. I bet it wouldnt go anywhere. And nintendo fans stop giving sony fagboys attention then they will go away. Fat ass tretton does feel threatend by nintendo any1 can see it. 3ds was called a major flop and 3rd party companies laughed an wanted nothing to do with it and yet 2 years later its has the most momentum of all systems and 3rd parties admited they were wrong.
