People are lazy... they don't search for "playstation" or "play station" when typing in "ps4" is much faster:

Did you even read the article?



Around the Network

I'm so happy, albeit from a different perspective this isn't so great news because it means more people reading the doom articles (hahah) and draw a wrong picture of Nintendo.
For reference, there was a recent popular article with this title '' Nintendo's sad  struggle  for survival '' hahah, after all these great news with pokemon for example. This is because Super mario run is a critical flop and Nintendo stock fell owing to that, but the majority of negative reviews are about its price not  the game itself, yeah the owners of the much expensive apple devices, complaining about the 10$ charge for a full game, when they spend fairly more in games with in-app purchases.
 Of course the writer hasn't mentioned any from the latest positive views in his article, because it wasn't fitting his narrative.



I was about to say that Nintendo is the only company that can launch the most successful phone games of all time, get the most internet traction recently, and can get 22 million views for a console trailer and STILL have their stocks go down and get bad press....

...but then I remembered Sony hasn't become profitable till just last business year(early 2015-early 2016). Honestly, it's weird how Sony's money issues haven't really affected them from a negative press standpoint as much as Nintendo's general unpopularity. At least Nintendo always makes money back and starts new trends. Sony's money issues affected their Playstation brand A LITTLE BIT but overall the general impression is that people don't associate the bad issues with Playstation and thus don't really care. That's understandable, glad Playstation is succeeding now but what them to get fair press just Nintendo should. Man, the Nintendoom articles....I get it guys but let's be a bit fairer.

during wii U launch didn't search traffic increase even more then that?

I dont think so, and we are not even close to Switch launch, we still need to have full Switch reveal and to Nintendo start Switch marketing, we still basically had just one Switch trailer without any Switch games showed.
