According to Bloomberg, Nintendo traded 476 billion yen ($4.5 billion) on Friday alone, which broke the record which was previously held by energy company Tokyo Electric.

Nintendo also beat out other companies on the list such as SoftBank, Mizuho, Nippon Steel, and Aiful.

It's the latest in a long list of profit-soaked headlines for the gaming giant. that Last week we learned Nintendo's share price had jumped 70 percentsince the release of Pokemon Go. They also rose 10 percent overnight after the augmented reality game's launch.

Congrats, Ninty!

It is a bit inflating itself, given the company does have really good historical record and realistically is on the up turn.

Unless the NX reveal is something truly amazing, the stock is going to normalize in the near future. Might be a good time to sell soon.

I wish I had money back when miitomo was announced and Nintendo's stock price went down.  I really wanted to buy some Nintendo stock at that point because I knew the price would jump once Nintendo put their established IPs on mobile.  Then again, I think all Nintendo fans knew their stock would go up when they did that.

Truly impressive. An hour ago, their maket cap was above 37b and shares around $38usd or ¥4,000

Holy Mother of God...

Lowest mark in the last year was 15.34
Highest mark was 38.25, today... !!!

It beat out...Tokyo Electric...what is life? I wonder how Nintendo is feeling right now, the conversations going on at their headquarters.

The last time their stock was that high was around April 2009... When both the Wii and the DS were very much in the prime!!
