Personally, I'm surprised not to see Nexon. :s

Seems he only listed companies related to games.

are you implying that Nexon is not related to gaming...

Their website says otherwise.

Pixel Art can be fun.

I dont know Nexon. It seemed to me it was all companies related to games. I guess he may have forgotten some.

VGChartz should make a video game CEO sim and get on that list

The possibilities are endless...

-Should you overwork staff and not pay them overtime and risk bad press (or even a costly lawsuit) or take your chances and hope that your game doesn't miss deadline and budget?

-If you're running a Japanese company do you try to make more Western friendly game by:

a) Handing over a key franchise to a Western developer
b) Buying a struggling Western studio and try to reboot their IP
c) Have your own developers try to put a Western spin on your games
d) Or do nothing and hope you don't lose all your marketshare to Gears of Duty 11

-Are you going to be a ruthless businessman that milks franchises for all their worth and run the risk of killing them prematurely or do you create lots of new IP and hope something sticks?

-Will your bribery get your game those golden 10s or will it get exposed all over the Internet?

A lot of Chinese companies up there!

And a bit suprised that Tencent is above Nintendo.

Hope that Chinese companies would develop games for Xbox 360.

Sony is a whole lot smaller than I thought. I figured they would be below Microsoft, but not by that much. Also Nintendo is slightly higher than Sony, is somewhat suprising, since Sony has a whole lot more products on the market than Nintendo.

Apple, MS, IBM, and Intel way above everyone else isn't surprising.

SOny is having a restructing

Most of their products are for the future

So they are bearing the loss now for a bigger future

this is more like a temporary low

should not judge it based on only the current price but what all strategies they have along it for the future

also the YEN strenght would make it seem even lower when converting to dollar

Market value is not only a valuation based on current performance but future expectations.

Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.
