Yeah, and most of that money will go to capcom 

Nintendo publishes it in the West + enormous hardware boost as it's the first MH on Switch. 

Ps4 boost will also be enormous when gta 6 comes out

The biggest news is that this basically confirms everyone's assumption that Switch is 3DS' replacement and the recipient of titles (almost) exclusive to handhelds like MH, Pokemon, etc.

I think Switch will replace 3DS but this really doesnt confirm that. Wii U had an HD port of MH Tri and PS3 had an HD port of MHP3.

This could be a similar situation to those two examples.

so...? 1 bitcoin is worth ~2500$... everybody knows that there is too much money on the market and people don't know what to do with it so they buy stupid stuff.

In the end though capcom stated that they chose to put MHtri on the wii instead of the ps3 because of lower development costs. Seing as the switch will give capcom lower costs than ps4 in adition to it being a pseudoportable which makes it more relevant in the MH mainland I think it's fair to say that MH will probably end up on switch. I would say this release should further point at capcom going in that direction, even though it doesn't confirm it fully.

 

Also nintendo would probably send out all possible ninjas in case capcom tried moving the franchise away to another platform. At least I would have if I were them.



wow, that is pretty insane bump in value in one day.

If its 2 billion from that, i wonder what sony stock would be like when gta 6 gets announced. +10 billion ?

Sony's stock would most likely not be affected at all as investors factor in the future. The PS4 is already 3.5 years old and it's clear since a long time that it will get full support from Take Two, including GTA VI. Beyond that, PlayStation is only a part of Sony as a whole.

In Nintendo's case, analysts across the board have expressed doubts as recent as four months ago, so Nintendo's stock wasn't one to buy, according to them. Of course they were mistaken, so since the Switch launch we've been seeing a correction. The share price has climbed by over 30% in the last three months because it's becoming clearer with each passing week that Switch will be very successful, thus raising the probability that Nintendo will beat their own forecasts for revenues and profits. And this is really the most important factor in investors' interests, whether a company is speculated to finish above or below their own forecasts.

The stock market is about being ahead of the curve. Analysts were nice enough to dampen expectations for months, so smart investors were put into a position where they could buy Nintendo shares at a low price and see a nice return within a few months. Of course, holding on to shares makes a lot more sense, because now others are realizing that Nintendo is on the rise which will push up Nintendo's stock even further throughout 2017.

So you're saying switch wasnt guaranteed of a monster hunter game and this announcement was unexpected and thats why nintendo stock went up? 



Aren't people here always saying "oh don't look into the stock market too much, they don't know/represent the real picture" whenever nintendo stock dips?

Either way, this is perfect for the Japanese market. It will sell well and probably get the ball rolling for MH5

Thread is about Nintendo's market value guys, not Sony. Please stay on topic.



Investors expecting another Wii-like success story?.. Maybe...

Easy come, easy go though.
