Didn't this one game double Nintendo's market cap? Revenue is good, but I'd think that it would have to be a lot higher in order to justify such a large increase in market value.

Speculative trading. They weren't driving shares higher because the revenue was great. They were driving the price up because they predicted that N would make very good revenue. Which Nintendo already said they wouldn't be.
