Are people forgetting that not a single price drop has been made?

Any smart company will only get ready to release their next console after the 3rd drop at least!

"Oh no, they had the most successful year of all time! It might be hard to match again! That can only mean that it will stop selling overnight and the whole company will go bankrupt within weeks!"

Man I wish I had some money so I could just dump it all into Nintendo stock while everybody freaks out on the gloom and doom.

You summed up my thoughts exactly.

Nintendo is facing market saturation & a weak economy. It goes without saying that sometime this year they are going to have to cut HW prices to keep demand up & continue selling at current production levels. Thus the lower profit forcast.....

As far as software is concerned, Wii Sports Resort & Wii Fit Plus should make up the slack for the slow fall off in Play/Fit/Kart sales with the casual crowd. Hopefully they got a big gun or two for their fanbase after Punch Out at E3. Personally I'm expecting Pikmin, Kirby, & something else for the Holidays. (not Zelda- they would never release a Wii version in the same time frame as Spirit Tracks)

Who cares what stock anylsts think anyways? It's not Nintendo's fault they bid their company to unrealisticly high levels.

It is still selling so much, as much as the HD consoles combined, but it might be reaching it's limit, let's see what WiiSports Resort does.

Only a one percent increase over last year? This is Nintendo's prediction? After some serious number crunching, I have figured out that would mean that they'd be breaking their own record by only one percent.

In what way is this supposed to be impressive?
