The main issue for Nintendo's shareprice is the strong Yen. So until the Japanese government starts artificailly weakening the Yen, the only thing Nintendo can do is lower the costbase, which is hard with a new console on the way.

they have spent a ton of money doing that 3 times in the last 18 months... it didnt work.

I don't know why investors assume the Yen is so stable as to rush to it as a shelter currency. Japanese debt rates are worse than pretty much anyone else in the developed world and they haven't seen economic growth in any signifcant measure in 20 years. Anyone else would have collapsed utterly by now...

True, but a hell of a lot of Japanese Government debt is owned by its own citizens.  But yes, Japan is pretty much the mst debt ridden country on the planet (over 200% of GDP).  Its a total mess.

95% of it is debt is to domestic companies and people and the costs of that debt is around 1%. So they are probably paying less for that 200% than most of Europe.

Also unlike USA i think they weren't printing empty Yen in recent years.

Switzerland had to threat investors they will print money without limits as long as CHF is too close to Euro to stop the insane exchange rate.

It's true, a lot of investors want Nintendo to move into the "app" space. We should bear in mind that most investors, in all industries, are solely concerned with short-term gain. That's how we got into this global financial crisis in the first place.

My best guess would be potential new investors are wary that Nintendo is in a state of transition at the moment. The Wii U is, still, a pretty big gamble, and with little or no concrete information available about it potential investors will be reluctant to take that gamble.

As I have always told people, investors never seem to look beyond next week. On the other hand, it's Nintendo's job to look 10 years into the future. Personally, I think there's nothing that can be done about Nintendo's dropping stock as of right now. They'll probably have to wait until E3 2012 so they can actually show investors something that'll make them happy.

I think from June - Dec 2011 Nintendo just doing great. We got brand new 2 Mario games, and 2 Zelda games (one remade and one new). And Wii and 3DS boost the sales. But I don't think so for next Year, Nintendo should keep focus on 3DS games and hardware sales, Vita release for US and Euro, maintenance Wii sales, and launching WiiU with at least fine line up games! Wooo... I'm so exciting!!!

They did say that they were hoping to inveigle the hardcore crowd with their Wii U... Did you know that the Wii U only supports one of those "handheld" controllers and the rest of the controllers have to be Wiimotes? They're working to see if they can add more "handheld" controllers. I wonder if Kingdom Hearts 3 will be on the Wii U...

I don't think it is official yet but there are many rumors saying they can at least have two Wii U tablets running at the same time.  I'm not going to believe anything till I hear it straight from Nintendo though.
