Hmmm, maybe I don't fully understand the financial jargon from the links, but if they posted a loss rather than a profit, couldn't a large portion of these losses actually be DEVELOPMENT costs?! We all know the 2014 schedule for Wii U is packed with both announced AND unannounced (or at least only acknowledged to exist, nothing has been shown) games being developed straight from Nintendo's pockets. If we know WHAT is causing the loss, it may not be as bad as it seems...

Think about it, what if they're posting a loss because 2014 is about to blow our minds with how much money they've been pouring into development of games during this 2013 fiscal year?!


its rather obvious wahts causing the loss.  The WiiU forecast has been slashed massively.

So they were expecting much higher revenus and profits on the back of the WiiU that is now not going to happen.

There is no way to make this look ok.  Its terrible.  The markets will kick them, although the stock is already poor.

The 3DS hasn't been doing as well as they would have liked particularily in the West. The stock was actually doing fairly prior to this but it will assuredly take a huge hit now.
