I don't think this is the time to invest in Nintendo, one of two things are going to happen

1. Nintendo gets back to making games and gets the 3DS off the ground and wiiU turns out okay and it does almost as good as DS and their stock goes up but not up to former levels

2. Nintendo fails at making a significant amount of games that people care about on their platforms and struggles through this/next gen (however you want to put it) and it's stock slowly falls over the years before they get another chance

right now it could go either way so not the time, apples the one to invest in, Sony if you want higher risk/reward you know the direction they are heading in, but Nintendo you just don't know where they are going and one way is really bad.


Really don't know what to say to the bolded part. But, basicly nah, couple of years ago, that was the time.

OT: Owning nintendo shares would be awesome!, but yeah these guys are probably right, price may keep falling.

Apple is just going up, it's the safest invest right now, like I said Sony is where to invest if you want a higher risk/reward (what apple was a few years ago) 

Based on fundimentals, Apple is a far worse investment than Nintendo ...

While you could liquidate Nintendo today and get (about) 80% of your money back from the stock, you would only get about 20% of your money back from Apple. If the stocks didn't increase in value you would get a 3% return from Nintendo while you would get a 0% return from Apple. If you look at price vs. earnings, Apple is about 2.5 times as expensive as Nintendo. And, on top of all of that, Android is slowly eating away ios' marketshare and Apple has never been able to break into an established market.

Certainly, Nintendo has significant issues but they have already been priced into Nintendo's stock price.

 

To put it another way ... Buying Apple today ensures that you will buy high and sell low the opposite of what you want to do ...

Apples stock is still going up, it'd be buy mid sell high, though you'd have to be on alert for potential stock drops.
