Sorry to hear that. Take it easy.



You can always count on that the haters will always find a way to downplay anything positive



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

I think Naum is referring to the fact that Nintendo has posted an operating profit for the last 2 years (this year will likely be no. 3) and their stocks are the highest they have been in like 5 years yet people want to talk about them losing money 3-5 years ago.



When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

I'd like to see their next quarter results. I believe their sale of 45% of stake in the Seattle Mariners should be on it. They still even have 10% stake left in them which is probably worth as much as the initial purchase of the 55% stake in the 90s. I know their sales are down for Wii U and 3DS but that should help cover their asses last quarter. 



Folk just keep looking at the local home console market to determine if Nintendo is doing well, when Nintendo despite not making as much as the DS and Wii years, is still doing very well compared to everything besides iOS and Andriod devices, they are still making money off Pokemon merchandise/media and they have started to expand into other revenue generating avenues like theme parks, movies and other things.

Short of epic collapse or Nintendo merging with another major company, they will NEVER be able to compete on even terms with Sony or Microsoft. But they are far from in the same boat as previous rivals like Atari or Sega.

Kind of like Pachter and his cronies do.

i think people hate on Pachter too much, he most recently said he thinks NX will do well if i remember correctly.
