It was only japan not the rest of the world.

 Please learn more about finances and companies before making stupid statements like that.  Sony and Nintendo are both Japanese companies and hence their company as a whole is listed on the Japanese stock market.  The market already takes into account ALL of their operations in all countries.  The same deal with American companies.  Global companies based in the US have their market caps reflective of their worldwide operations.

If Nintendo in Japan is valued higher than Sony then they are bigger pure and simple in market cap.  There's a big disconnect between a company's market cap and how much revenue/asset they hold however.  Too complicated to go into but suffice it to say, Nintendo company is now worth more than Sony company.
