The stocks already lost 50% since i bought it, i don't care.

Its a long term hold for me. Ill take my dividends and confidently assume that Nintendo is the only video game company that's still actually innovating the playing of video games.

That's a ridiculous statement from an investor.

Really? Because I don't see how the number one selling console of all time and the number one selling console of last gen. isn't innovative, or successful.

As we speak...

Apple are innovating (not videogames)

Sony are innovating (not gameplay innovation, graphics are not innovative)

Microsoft are innovating (not gameplay innovation, just online)

Google are innovating (not relevant)

Wiki - The term innovation derives from the Latin word innovatus, which is the noun form of innovare "to renew or change," stemming from in—"into" +novus—"new". Although the term is broadly used, innovation generally refers to the creation of better or more effective products, processes, technologies, orideas that are accepted by markets, governments, and society.

Apple have so innovated - look how you can play ipod games by titlting about your ipod etc, and you can be assured they are at work on new game services/offerings.

Sony with Vita have clearly innovated. Work on the PS4 has begun, and there will no doubt be some gameplay innovations there. Also with games, Heavy Rain was quite innovative.

Facebook is looking at new ways to play games, and new ways to socially interact with games.

Google has its nose in there somewhere.

Microsoft's Kinect is innovative, and they'l be working on more innovations.

In the games industry innovation is occuring all the time.
