Nintendo is scheduled to release the results of the third quarter of their new fiscal year tomorrow and this thread is to have all the information released by them on a single place.

First of FY2015 Q3 is the period between October 1st 2015 and December 31st 2015, all the data released by Nintendo themselves is shipped data, or in other words that of sold to retailers.

What to look forward too?

-Hardware and software results for Wii, WiiU and Nintendo 3DS (total ammount of hardware and boxed software moved)

-Results for certain games, Nintendo released nothing noteworthy on Q3 so the only results will be for old games, Super Mario Maker, Splatoon, Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer, etc.

-If Nintendo indeed plans to launch the NX this calendar year then we might hear some early details here, be wary though, as that might be as an answer of an investor's question.

-A lot of stupid questions by investors.

Nintendo will be releasing their Q3 documents after trading stops, 15:00 local time in Japan (14 hours as of the writing of this), the meeting with investors will take place the day after at 10:00 local time in Japan (33 hours at the time of this writing.)
