Nintendo will go past the 30,000 yen range again (stock price) as Pokemon Go grows, but when/if Animal Crossing is also a hit on iOS/Android, that's when their stock will rocket back to the levels it was at in 2007/08, then there will be large separation between them and Sony.

Animal Crossing wouldn't be near the same hit as Pokemon, Pokemon is a very well known franchise among gamers and non gamers while ANimal Crossing isn't even known that well by many gamers, but it will do good numbers in Japan.

Nintendo doesn't have any franchise as popular as Pokemon because its popular due to its anime among millions.

Animal Crossing Wild World - 12.3 m

Pokemon Omega Rubi/Alpha Saphire - 10.5m

Animal Crossing New Leaf - 10m on March of this year, now is more.

Animal Crossing IS well known by gamers, if done well its success can be more close to Pokemon Go than it seems, and I can see it lasting longer, FE is coming too, both combined could achieve what Pokemon Go did.
