The Cost of R&D and marketing, may effect there profit loss forecast but it does not affect there share price, share price is affected by what people are willing to pay for them, and after revealing the Wii U, that was alot less. People wanted rid of there Nintendo shares and they just wernt worth as much, because so many people wanted rid. |
Unfortunately you can't use the stock market as a proper indicator. The same thing happened with the Wii 5 years ago and yet Nintendo still trampled its competitors by an embarassing margin. If you're going to spout economics actually read up on how the stock market works (Matt Taibbi would be a good start) because trust me your head would burst like a ripe melon. For crying out loud the WiiU just made the front page of USA Today while Sony and MS weren't even mentioned. And like I've said before "but I don't expect 'hardcore' gamers to accept, admit, or understand that"
