Haven't seen much nintendo on lists about most valuable companies. Then again I have never bothered to look below top 50.

Even microsoft beats nintendo in value and net income.


Bro, i don't think your any smarter than business week, Don't even bother



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

''Among those companies, Nintendo not only came out on top but is actually the only gaming company that managed to make the list at all. Sony and Microsoft are conspicuous in their absence; in fact, the only other company on the list to share the "Electronics" category with Nintendo is Apple.''

LoL

But yes, this is well deserved.



Also, this should be in the news section.

I don't need to be smarter than them. I just stated some facts. Better compay = company which is worth more.

@KingArthur my friend inherited a few million and decided to make a business around flowers. He has in fact more money in his pocket than interflora but does that make him better?



"...the best way to prepare [to be a programmer] is to write programs, and to study great programs that other people have written. In my case, I went to the garbage cans at the Computer Science Center and fished out listings of their operating system." - Bill Gates (Microsoft Corporation)

"Hey, Steve, just because you broke into Xerox's house before I did and took the TV doesn't mean I can't go in later and take the stereo." - Bill Gates (Microsoft Corporation)

Bill Gates had Mac prototypes to work from, and he was known to be obsessed with trying to make Windows as good as SAND (Steve's Amazing New Device), as a Microsoft exec named it. It was the Mac that Microsoft took for its blueprint on how to make a GUI.

Deserved

I am pretty sure that you do know that the liquid assets are not the only thing which counts for company's value. So I am sorry to ask but what is the point of your post? Please amuse me.



The company got number one because of its success this year, go read it for yourself. Thats all KingArthur, your done.

Nintendo is an amazing company, but I think there are far more deserving companies. Such as Google which provides its customers with many great features all for free, and Sony (the whole company, not the gaming division) which makes such a wide variety of great electronics.



I'll do a signature later
