The article is taking about the demand, not the sales. The sales are clearly up, but the demand appears to be nowhere near where it was one year ago.

 

Demand is not measurable on its own, you can't go up to everyone in America and ask if they want a Wii

 

You can estimate the demand from the sales on Ebay and such. Last year the price was hovering near 400 bucks and now it's about 250 bucks if not lower. The demand is clearly down, hence the drop of Nintendo on the stock market.

That would only be true if stock was consistant from last year.

It's not.

You don't seem to understand how basic supply and demand works.

Neither does the bloomberg analyst apparently.  The stock is down because... well most stocks are down.  People just aren't as willing to invest.
