Fans of the Gran Turismo car (gee, anyone have a better mascot for the PS3?) end up doing a dancem, chanting:
* The Wii is DOOOOMED
* Microsoft is losing money and will drop out of the videogame business.
* The entire world will have to come to Sony if it wants to play GAHYMZ!

What do PS3 fans have to do with a financial report regarding Nintendo?

I was wondering the same thing.

If he wanted to bitch about the article, he could have mentioned that it makes some out-dated points about the Japan market foreshadowing performance in US and EU.  The markets are so different now that this is clearly no longer the case. 

It is the financial analysts in Japan who are pushing the old model (the rest of the world follows Japanese sales). The article actually notes it and then reports on Nintendo's reaction.

It is a fair but unfortunate article. Fair as in balanced. Unfortunate in that the stock is essentially tredding water.
