Poor predictions are mostly at issue here. Nintendo way overestimated their results in practically every field, and when they failed to meet even the projections that were already downward-adjusted, investor confidence slid still further
What's bugging me is where these losses are possibly coming from. To date the 3DS is sold for a profit (and will continue to be sold for profit until August 11th, people, get your facts straight), as are all their other platforms, and they had no software underperformers to account for actual losses of this magnitude
It has to be R&D costs, slated against the fact that the Yen is still gaining ground on the dollar (given lack of confidence in America and the fact that Japan is doing amazingly well economically for a country that's partially irradiated and still recovering structurally)
Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
