Shares in Nintendo closed up 3.2 percent at 26,750 yen, after hitting a record high of 26,770 yen, while Sony slid 0.4 percent to 4,710 yen. Shares for Nintendo have sky rocketed 88% since the start of 2006.
This type of success can be awarded to the Nintendo DS, but who knows what type of success can bring from the Wii? The record comes after Nintendo announced that 400,000 Wii consoles will be avail be in Japan at launch, and that they’re shipping 1.5 million DS units in December in Japan. Financially speaking, things are certainly looking better for Nintendo this generation.
