Japan: Nintendo’s share price has dropped 33% in the last five months

The share pricing of Nintendo stock in Japan is now 33% lower than it was five months ago. The reasoning behind this drop in The Land of the Rising Sun is thought to be due to the increasing cost of RAM, potential increases in hardware costs to consumers, trade tariffs, and reports that the console struggled more than expected during the all-important Christmas shopping season. Shares in the Kyoto-based company reached a record high in August 2025 thanks to reports that the Nintendo Switch 2 was performing well at retail globally.

    1. They owned near 10% then sold sone of that they maybe buy double the previous amount. Honestly I think they buy Capcom, they up shares in Koei Tecmo and Bandai, maybe Toei and finally invest in Konami too. Maybe finally 100% buy SNK finally take it private. Outside gaming they should pursue Hitotsubashi Group, Kodansha, Tatsunoko, Ishinomori Pro, Tezuka Productions, and Dynamic Planning. I mean they have not expanded as much with anime.

  1. Japan’s prices are dirt cheap, that means if they’re still below retail price elsewhere and sales are down that much, it means Nintendo is milking everyone else, but what else is new.

  2. I think the biggest problem is the lack of “new” first party games.
    90 % of Nintendo games are Switch 2 editions.

    1. uuh why do people keep saying this when they have a new mario kart, DK, kirby air rider, pokemon and metroid prime on it. there is something else here, either people have lost interest in nintendo’s games or people really just care about mario and zelda and don’t care about DK, kirby or metroid at all and now even pokemon is no longer doing the job.
