What people dont realize is that when you invest in Sony, you dont just invest in its gaming division, you invest in the whole company, and not every division is fairing as well as the PS4.
But when you invest in Nintendo, you invest in the gaming division, which is doing extremely well to say the least, with a bright future ahead of it.Thats why Nintendo is doing better in the stocks.

But both companies are doing well.No need for these salty comments or denial by both sides.God.

You mean Sony having all their departments making profit in the quarter and "only" increasing 13% the stocks?

My sole point is that trying to use stock market evaluation for anything here is mostly useless.

But how many has that much more potential to grow?I havent been following that closely how well the other divisions of Sony are fairing, but I dont remember them having an expected explosive growth ahead of them like the PS4 and the Switch had/are planned to have.

And as you said, stock market is basically speculation.Speculation about the future.If they expect that the Switch will grow rapidly and in big jumps, and if that growth is a "given", they will value that company more, because thats easy money.If Sony is less inclined to do the same, and its more of a long investment or whatever, people will be less interested to invest.

 

Dont get me wrong, I believe that Nintendo stock is a bit of an illusion now, given that investors think that Nintendo will enter the chinese market(because of they having that MOBA game on the Switch) and succeed, but for the most part its because it seems that the Switch is on track to duplicate ,or come really close, the success of the Wii.And that thing printed money.



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.
