Nintendo profits fall 55 percent as people save their cash for the Switch 2
Nintendo posted a net profit of 80.9 billion Japanese Yen, which is higher than its forecast but over 50 percent lower than its net profit for the same period last fiscal year.
Headlines like this always imply (at least the way I read them) as “Nintendo SHOCKED profits fall unexpectedly”
But nintendo literally expected this. “Nintendo forecast lower profits this year, still beat expectations”
Far less clickbaity.
33 1 ReplyI think that's a result of how headlines are these days. You almost never just get the story it's gotta be some negative emotion inducing statement.
This one might as well read "your favorite company failing?!"
5 1 ReplyYeah. Also why they avoid talking about console releases until the last moment they can get away with it.

It doesn't help that their prices never drop.
I'd consider buying Advance Wars 1&2. But it's $60 which is way too much for a port of 2 GBA games.
It's been over a year and it's still $60.
