So did the sale of 45% of their stake in the Seattle Mariners not show up on this quarter results?

I thought they sold that.

They sold 45 of their 55% stake a few months back.  I was thinking it would show up.

Pretty ugly quarter. Nintendo needs to get Animal Crossing iOS/Android out and generating money, it is the most important game they have in development business wise.

Is this actually in development?  It could be huge if true.

Yes it is true and another game aswell but I am sure someone will mention it.

Amiibo fad is dying, yes.

No reason to celebrate when the cause is first and foremost a lack of new amiibo games. I don't think there was anything new for amiibo besides a few new ones for the Kirby game. Also, the statement says "remained" which indicates "flat" or at least not a significant decline.

If you desire the death of amiibo, then you need underwhelming results at a time when Nintendo pushed amiibo. Then you can say that it doesn't sell anymore despite Nintendo trying hard. I wouldn't mind to see amiibo being phased out either, but the current sales don't imply that it's going to happen soon.

The entire quarter has been bad. That includes, hardware, software and amiibo fad.

It's scheduled for launch later this year.

EDIT: The other confirmed game is based on the Fire Emblem IP.

This is definitely one to watch.  Nintendo have a nice combo of this and sun/Moon for the holiday.  Should bring in some dolla.

Expected for a time when both of their consoles are on life support. At least 3DS is being decently supported software wise, but that is far from enough.

Bad results but not surprising.Thing's probably won't get better until the NX comes out.

guys- Nintendo as well as everyone else has repeatedly made it known how weak their software release schedule is for this season. anyone surprised about the mediocre revenue is being absurd.

what games have come out!? like nothing. I'm just pointing out the fact that Nintendo decided to sacrafice this year a longgggg time ago when they chose to push back releases for the NX and prioritize it.
