Your highlighted addition to the OP is a joke since you are the one who started a thread on ridiculous figures "WITHOUT MAKING ANY EFFORT TO VERIFY THAT INFORMATION".

A market capitalization figure is not a debatable opinion, it is not an analysis subject to criticism because it didn't account for a variable. What it is is a cold, uncarring calculation that does not vary and is the multiplication of the number of shares by the share price. "OTHER SOURCES GIVE THE CURRENT VALUATION OF NINTENDO AS SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 57-65 BILLION, " but that would not be current market capitalization (which is what your thread was about.

Now you say your intention is to stop people from saying that Sony is too big to be swallowed up, but in doing so, you imply that Nintendo has a market cap equivalent to Exxon-Mobile's. You should be glad that Nintendo's market cap isn't 400 000 000 000$. They would have to make 250$ profit off of 1.6Billion transactions over the next 8-13 years (usually accepted P/E ratio) in order to justify that price, or else a lot of people would loose a lot of money when it's bubble would break.

And my panties are not in a bunch. Let's keep this above the belt, especially since you are fighting an uphill battle in justifying your insistence on using your figures.
