Better for you to stop the assumptions.

A thread quoting an article that says the opposite of the thread title is bad no matter what the content is. Fixing this thread is as easy as removing the article.

The market cap of Ninty is CURRENTLY higher than Sony as can be seen form the links I spoon fed you with.  Thats all there is to this to be honest.  No need to deflect or try and cause a row where there isn't one.  We cant argue about facts now can we.

Not that it is a very important or relevant fact... and it could change in minutes of the NY market opening.

I know the facts. I'm just asking why one would use an article that contradicts the facts one is trying to state. Seems kinda non-sensical to me.

Stock markets... are weird.

PSN alone makes more money than All of Nintendo does.

Yet Nintendo stock is higher? why?

revenue is not profit.

IIRC, profit margins off digital sales and PS+ subscriptions are larger than whatever Nintendo makes money off of.

Not too late to fix your mistake;)

Half of the OP is correct. Just remove the first half.

Nope.  you just quoted an out of date article.  Ninty mc is higher than Sony mc as of right now. 

Sony 5.404 t y

Ninty 5.446 t y

Probably wont last though.

Sourcing an outdated article is what most people would call a mistake..

Sony isnt just gaming...  your point is irrelevant I'm afraid.  We arent comparing the market cap and profitability of Nintedno versus Sony gaming.  We are comparing Nintedo v Sony corp.   Which is why i have said a number of times already in the thread thats it is kind of a pointless comparison.

The facts are the facts but the comparison is pointless.

The context of the tweet was PlayStation Network revenues, which is why I pointed it out for this particular tweet. I'd keep quiet if it was some other context :P

The title is a bit misleading. Sony is still a bit ahead with $48million.

Kudos to DS/Wii though. Even with all the Switch hype during the peak of Wii craze the market cap is twice as big.

Today (23rd of June, 2017) on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Nintendo has now hit a Market Cap of ¥5.45T(~$49B), compared to Sony Corp with a market cap of ¥5.40T(~$48.5B)

But the article said that Nintendo still trail behind Sony. Maybe the article just isn't up to date.



A handheld gamer only (for now).

The real question is.... Should Sony go third party?

There's lot more to it. Assets the company has, including properties, debt, ventures, and IPs. Sony can make more and be worth less, if that makes any sense.

That's not how stock value is determined.
