Sony, obviously.

If you look at it purely in a gaming market sense, Nintendo has billions to bleed through and a handheld market they dominate. Sony is in financial trouble and that could really affect their gaming division. Look at the losses they suffered with PS3 and even the start of the PS2 gen.

Outside of gaming, Nintendo still has billions of dollars in str8 cash homie sitting in the bank, so they are good. Sony could also be ok here. Even if they have to shed off every division but one, they make tons of money selling life insurance.

Nintendo went from having about $10B in 2008 to about $5.5B in the space of 5 years. Needless to say, this will only get worse unless they can come up with something new.

Sorry but, its not 5.5 billion is actually 8.6 billion not sure where you got that number from.

So, it dropped from $14B (if Reuters is to believed) to $8.6B... And dropping by the quarter...
