Guest Posted July 28, 2011 Report Share Posted July 28, 2011 I'm trolling Ian mostly, but there is some partial truth to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chops Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 Investors certainly hope the price cut will turn things around. In its first fiscal quarter, Nintendo saw its revenues drop by more than 50 percent compared to a year ago. It also reported a $328 million loss -- it's first ever quarterly loss. The company has further slashed its annual earnings expectations to 35 billion yen, it's lowest since 1985. source-Yahoo News News is reporting all the CEO's are taking pay cuts as well. Hopefully Nintendo gets it's head out of it's ass soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted August 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2011 Former Nintendo Co. President Hiroshi Yamauchi’s wealth may have plunged more than $300 million today after the flop of the 3DS player forced the company to slash its profit forecast. The value of Nintendo shares held by Yamauchi, the company’s largest single shareholder and great-grandson of the founder, tumbled 24.2 billion yen ($312 million) after the stock’s plunge today in Osaka trading. Yamauchi, 83, owned 14.17 million shares, or 10 percent of Kyoto-based Nintendo, as of March 31, according to regulatory data compiled by Bloomberg. Nintendo yesterday said it will cut the price of the five- month-old 3DS by as much as 40 percent to spur demand for the handheld player, and it slashed its profit forecast 82 percent. Satoru Iwata, who succeeded Yamauchi as president in 2002, is facing mounting competition from Apple Inc. (AAPL)’s iPhone and iPad, and online games played on Facebook Inc.’s service. Yamauchi, who ran Nintendo for 53 years, was Japan’s sixth- richest man with an estimated fortune of $4.6 billion, according to Forbes magazine’s latest rich list. The former owner of the Seattle Mariners baseball team led the Forbes Japan rich list in 2008. Nintendo officials weren’t immediately available to comment on whether Yamauchi’s holdings in the company have changed since March 31. Nintendo plunged 12 percent to 12,290 yen as of the 3:10 p.m. close on the Osaka Securities Exchange. That’s the biggest drop since January 2009. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-07-29/nintendo-s-yamauchi-loses-500-million-in-single-day-after-plunge-in-stock.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackFetch Posted August 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 Nintendo is offering 20 free games to people that bought the 3DS at the original price as a "we fucked up" apology. http://www.digitaltrends.com/gaming/nintendo-announces-two-more-free-games-for-early-3ds-buyers/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuaveStar Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 So, here in the UK the 3DS is now set at £150 in stores. Game is offering it at £160 with Zelda as a package deal. Online is £155 Amazon has it up for £115. Here. They've also brought out new adverts (Commercials) talking about how great the 3DS is, and it's new standard price point of £150. I'm still going to wait for more games to come out, and better package deals to show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nintendo is claiming that there won't be a 3DS lite. Which means give it a year and a half for one to show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
