Nintendo may have had a weak year in 2016 in terms of Wii U support, but things like Pokemon GO helped keep the company poised and made investors pretty happy. The trading value went up highly in 2016, putting it atop of the charts:
Nintendo's trading value, the product of share price and trading volume, jumped fourfold in fiscal 2016 to 17.6 trillion yen ($157 billion), rising to the top of Nikkei's charts for the first time since data became available 20 years ago. It beat typical high flyers such as Toyota Motor, which came in second at 13.9 trillion yen, and Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group, which placed third at 13.2 trillion yen.
