Nintendo's stock rose by as much when Bowsette became a giant meme

Shareholders are fucking retard mongoloids and are as prone to going up and down as a kangaroo with its balls on fire

The fact that saying "yeah we don't wanna overwork our emloyees into an unproductive state of mind" is something shareholders would feel flighty about says a whole lotta something about how we treat the actual devs making the games we suckle down

JUST

You're a fool if you believe Nintendo aren't working their Japanese developers to the bone.

Shareholders are fucking retards.

Also they are butthurt because Nintendo isn't dicksucking streaming and cloud like everyone else.

Dude investors buy stocks not actual copies.
Also most investors are plain retarded who ride buzzwords, they make money because they manage to catch on them before most people do.
I'm in the startup environment and one of the rules you need to follow is that investors actually don't know jack shit about what they're going to put their money on.
One time a girl had a project that could let you bake certain stuff with 30% less water but they didn't understand the implications after like the third time where the poor girl had to resume her presentation to "LESS WATER LESS MONEY, GOOD"

Time to buy stock

is the number 2 company that Japanese people want to enter after college.
the number 1 is being diplomatic

It's not even a shit console.

pretty sure the stock didnt drop because of animal crossing

Naughty Dog and Insomniac are the only reason Sony is relevant in America.

I wonder who's crazier between Nintendo's stock holders and capcoms.

Google will buying them soon

So why is Pokémon such a shitshow then?

what about capcom ?

>Worse than Disney

Imagine hating Nintendo so much you say they are owned by greedy americans jews

>pokemon
>nintendo.

Nintendo owns pokemon company but the entire fault is on gamefreak. Specifically matsuda.

Because Game Freak, the ones who actually make Pokemon, don't want to work on it anymore. They're hoping a bad enough game will bury the series. At this point, they have their B-team developing Sword and Shield, while their A-team works on other IPs of theirs, and are making choices they know will be incendiary with anyone and everyone.

Sell low buy high baby.

Probably because they've coasted for years on what are essentially smallish RPG's for portable systems and yet have raked in ludicrous sums so felt no need to change what was already a winning formula.

Come the switch, and they probably started sweating their balls off at the idea of actually having to do something big for once.

If it took less time rather than water it probably would have been an easier sell.

they'll probably be a new switch by then

This. Long term value isn't affected by a single game delay.

Yes and it’s extremely sad to watch

Nintendo should just go private desu.

Fuck the shareholders. Somebody post that excerpt from a shareholder meeting where one of them was frustrated that they were talking about video games.
Also somebody post that one about that guy that was really excited about being in a Nintendo shareholder meeting since he was a fan for so long.

I'd rather get Animal Crossing in a good, functional state and also it's good to hear that the Yakuza aren't chopping off fingers to get it rushed out.

As a nintenbro, I'd like to give a tip of my hat to the xchads. It's nice to come together once a year as usual and celebrate gaming as a community. Plus, it provides some friendly competition! I'm glad we're able to show off what we have in the open, not afraid to back away and hide out of fear that we'll be mocked online.
Thanks for actually participating in E3! By the way, have you seen Sony anywhere?

I still don't get why those fucktards don't let other devs pickup and help them with development.

Pokémon fault, unironically.

Fuck off you enormous cunt tripfag. You serve no purpose on this site other than for people to laugh at your continued existence as a pathetic clown for us all to laugh at. The day you finally buy some rope and commit suicide will be a brighter day for us all, and the world in general.

But more to the point, I wasn't referring to Nintendo being "worse" by any qualitative measurement than Disney, but rather the cult-like adoration for Disney, is seen similarly with Nintendo amongst the Japanese, but even more so.

>Sony is now based on California onions
I didn’t know we grew onions here.

Friendly reminder that Nintendo is up like 33% since the start of the year. This is literally nothing, just a normal fluctuation.

It's really telling that the sketchiest looking Nintendo first party stuff this year, Pokemon Sword/Shield and Fire Emblem Three Houses, are being run by development studios that aren't owned by Nintendo.

Devolver digital had more games that I wanted to play than nintendo did (which was 0)

3 houses looked awful before the time skip reveal though. Even then it still looks fairly average.

Stockholders are pansy-ass bitches that get scared by the smallest dip. If those are powerful enemies, then I see why the american market is flooded by useless fools

Based animal crossing. Comfy game is comfy.

Yes. I love lying about my birthday to have the wagies dance for me. I even get a free cake for my troubles.

Gamefreak not putting in their all into Pokemon is because Gamefreak's vets are burnt out on Pokemon. They absolutely need new blood, why not get squid research lab(that's what I call the team that did Splatoon) to help Gamefreak with the next Pokemon game.

not that user but holy shit seethe harder faggot

Attached: image.jpg (1346x824, 427K)

Honestly that's even worse since even if they are doing stuff like, say, using the Fire Emblem Warriors build to make a big Fire Emblem title with stuff like lots of NPC units running around during combat animations, Three Houses still looks a lot rougher compared to FEW.

They're able to pretty comfortably replicate the Two Falchions FMV in Warriors, and some of their other stuff looks alright too.
youtube.com/watch?v=GeCmTd6st50
youtube.com/watch?v=YWd-tqzB9U0
But you compare that to cutscenes in Three Houses, like when Byleth deflects the bandit's axe to protect Edelgard, it cuts away from showing the full animation or even the impact, or even that one cutscene of Byleth getting up from a tablet and walking to a doorway and how stilted it looks.

Garage Teams like Splatoon and ARMS' crews probably just want to keep working on their own stuff or keep making new titles inbetween their work on potboiler stuff like Mario spinoffs things.

Warriors suffer from staff that don't give two shits about FE.

Just read about them on interviews and Compare to #FE staff who actually knew what they were working on.

But Warriors issue seems to be more due game being developed for 3ds then ported later.

But I still don't know how they fucked up on cutscenes in 3houses since it's same staff that did fateswakening FMV.

>not that user but

Then you fundamentally fail to understand the point retard

"squid research lab" is the team that did animal crossing, they got to do splatoon because they were just too burnt out on AC to do the next one. Which really doesn't bode well for this new AC, tbqh.

Reminder that stock prices are one of the worst metrics to see how a company is doing since they move entirely on the "feelings" of investors.

How do I get a job at Nintendo with semi-fluent Japanese and no gaming related skills?

The Switch is a shit console compared to the other gen counterparts but once you have it, you can realize it's a pretty impressive small piece of technology. Games don't look half bad too. I mean, some might do but usually Nintendo's IPs get so much attention to detail that the artstyle alone makes up for the sub-par graphics.

Literally start at Treehouse. You're already quasi-bilingual from Japanese to English so you got something of an edge.

Bill Trinen got his start being Shiggy's personal translator.

Impossible.
For one thing, Nintendo actually has competition in their field of entertainment. Disney is pretty much a monopoly and people are absolutely happy about it.

I don't want to work at some shitty American branch though

Oh no, Nintendo doesn't use an awful development method that mentally and physically breaks its staff and more often than not decreases the quality of a game! Such a horrible company! How dare they acknowledge their employees as human beings?!

I'm just gonna move to Kyoto and apply for a job at Nintendo, I'm sure I'll get one

Better than the game being a buggy broken mess at launch.

This is a stupid question, but why do stocks matter for any company?

Switch is actually kind of getting worth it between NMH3, Panzer Dragoon, Trials of Mana, etc., and none of these games are even first party shit. Frankly, I’d nab one if I were you, since you seem to think most Westcuck games are godawful, I’m sure you’ll find a couple things on there you’ll like, and you get the bonus of playing them on the shitter or during travel, and if your TV’s fucked up or you ain’t got one, you can still play.
If you wanna become a Nintenbro & spend zero dollars on it, download a couple emulators off the net, a bunch of games, & go from there. Gamecube & GBA had some absolutely comfy games imo, so start with Dolphin & VBA.

Better than Fallout 76 and Athem

wise words from a cute pugster

Sony were chilling in the back watching Microsoft showcase all of the games coming to PS4. Why spend YOUR money when you can spend some one else's?

If >50% is owned by the public said public can vote on matters pertaining to the company including dismissing the board of directors.
Even if that's not the case the stocks represent the perceived value of a company and whoever does hold shares probably doesn't want that value to diminish.

Do people even know that AC staff was working on splatoon this entire fucking time?

I hate stockholders.

Anthem was delayed to hell and back though. Just admit this isn't because Nintendo suddenly turned into socialists over night.

Don't devs working for AAA game companies make 6 figures + OT? Why the fuck should I care about how they feel when they're making fucking bank? They live in fucking gated communities and sip marshmallow lattes in their little overpriced box homes on their days off.

Fuck em.

I say, work you soi fuckbags, work!

>socialist
I don't think you know what that word means user. It's okay, you can be honest here.

So if all Pokemon fans got together and bought the majority of stocks for TCPi or Nintendo, we could literally force them to make the kind of games we want?

Think of it like your credit score. If you have a good credit score, banks and other institutions will feel more comfortable giving you loans and lines of credit, becuase they assume you'll make good use of that money and be able to pay back the loan with interest.
Like taking a loan to buy a car or go to school will mean you'll be able to get a better paying job, and then you'll have money to pay them back. It's not a flat quid pro quo, but rather a perception of theoretical value over long term.

Likewise, if Nintendo is perceived as valuable, people will be more likely to buy in and Nintendo will have access to more capital to do things like expand operations like hiring more people or funding more vidya, or funding development of new consoles while the current one is just getting off the ground.

This is why the hypothetical war chest is so important, it's not just for Nintendo to tank bad years, but also protects themselves against a shareholder takeover if say, the stock price were to plummet in a horrifying way. This E3 drop is nothing.

That's because they spent so long not making the game and not knowing what the fuck to do with it. Animal Crossing has a clear focus, Anthem didn't.

Hey /biz/ Should I buy nintendo now or should I wait for a bigger dip?

Nintendo actually own ton of their stocks.

They are public traded, but they aren't stupid to let some retard do a hostile takeover.And not like someone can, they are protected by government

You are way overestimating how much money the typical employee at some AAA studio is getting paid.

Guerilla is the rehash master and Suckerpunch makes shit games.
Japan studio is good though.

>The average employee age is 38.6, and the average tenure with the company is 13.5 years. The average workday at Nintendo of Japan is 7 hours and 45 minutes, with an hour break for each shift. Employees in the main office get to work around 8:45 a.m., and developers start their day closer to 9:30 a.m.
Meanwhile
>Nearly one quarter of Japanese companies require employees to work more than 80 hours of overtime a month, according to a 2016 government survey. Those extra hours are often unpaid.
Man, I wonder why the Japanese want to work at Nintendo

Generally they don't. 50 years ago Nintendo sold stock, with the promise that they'd give X% of their profit to shareholders.
Then shareholders start trading amongst themselves. Unless one of them can get 51% of the company together, it doesn't mean anything.

I expect Towns to do about as well as Ever Oasis due to genre similarities but if Game Freak fails to deliver, god help them

Maybe you're right, they don't even post expected salaries on their career site.

Attached: ntdo_game_designer_position.png (838x459, 34K)

They weren't perfect but I'm still kinda annoyed Nintendo sent Codename STEAM and Ever Oasis out to die.

Ever oasis is okay tho, just need more polish and better marketing. I fail to see anything good on town.

>This idiort thinks a company can be socialistic.
Nintendo values money, but they also value their image. They want to be stable rather than infinitely grow. If anything Nintendo is being smart for not falling into crunch culture and
not being anything like EA.

Go watch the walmart song thingy on youtube

>Equal opportunity
>Not Equal outcome

>AAA Devs

Absolutely fucking not. Most AAA devs don't make shit, it's the management, Voice Actors, and Directors that make bank. Devs have always had a history of being treated as disposable peons despite there being an equally extensive history of companies getting fucked over for treating them that way.

While it isn't NoA, NoJ has some of the highest employee morale of any company in the world.

That's less to do with pay and more to do with the fact that Nintendo is one of the only big-dick companies that doesn't treat its employees with contempt. The fact that Iwata took pay cuts to avoid any layoffs during the Wii U is proof of that.
Of course, Nintendo and its affiliates love for their employees does have certain drawbacks sometimes, like Gamefreak being eternally fucking awful at gamedev.

>tfw my single share was just starting to improve
>fucking retards start selling and ruin it for those of us with strong fists

Ninty is fair flatline most of the time, better to just buy a tech index fund.

They let STEAM have Fire Emblem reps to boost its sales, that was generous of them.

Gamefreak isn't awful at game development, they just don't have passion in Pokemon anymore. Gamefreak's other projects like Tembo and HarmoKnight were pretty great. I've said before in this thread that Gamefreak needs new blood to make Pokemon great again.

I mean, let's be real, it was for people that already had Fire Emblem amiibos.
Something huge would be like if they had Link as a bonus cameo unit in Fire Emblem like SC2, as a sword and bow using unique unit, that's as a high-as-fuck publicity-tier cameo.

You really think that $1bil is gonna hurt them? They probably get 3times that when AC launches

But those are smaller projects.

Pokemon scale is quite big compared to them. And people want something more akin to BOTW since forever, which they can't do for shit.

Tembo and Harmoknight are fucking nothing compared to the scale of Pokemon. Of course they look alright but the threshold for competence is much smaller compared to Pokemon.

Attached: Based.webm (1440x508, 1.75M)

They're also making Town, Of the two games it's clear which one they wanted to make more. They've said it in interviews that Sword and Shield are being made by B team while A team makes Town. In that same interview they said they don't want to be just known as they guys that make Pokemon.

The big N has so much money and yet they failed to deliver a solid holiday line-up and lost stock because of it.
This is actually pathetic and makes one wonder why they are not expanding their company more in order to maintain a steady flow of new games or at least hiring other game companies.
Their business model is obviously flawed and needs to be re-worked into one of higher output but without engaging in corrupt practices like crunch. They need to expand.

gonintendo.com/stories/335869-game-freak-prioritizing-original-projects-over-pokemon-talks-abo
Here's some sauce.

They don't have competency to be that kind of dev.

Monolith soft escaped the fate of just being a Xeno dev because they worked their to grab Nintendo attention.Guaranteed it kinda bite their ass since Nintendo refused ton of their projects for xeno, but still a nice trade off..

you don't need to crunch your whales when your company pays well, people stay late by their own decision, to make products that don't make them want to die every night

but they ARE awful at it. the programming and the new mechanics are lackluster. New blood is their only hope but they're too blind and stupid to ever fix their shit

>muh capn crunch
You're sitting at a computer, get over yourself.

I'm not saying I want gamefreak to treat Pokemon like trash. I'm offering Ideas on how to improve them but nobody fucking listens. Nothing will improve until you find the source of the problem. Unless you do that, gamefreak will never get better.

I always asked my parents not to mention it was my birthday at all because the singing embarrassed me and I didn't want everyone else to stare at me.

I'm the one you're responding to.
FUCKING THIS! This is exactly what needs to happen!

AAA devs make barely enough to feed their families (whom they hardly see during the game's development) and have a high chance of being laid off once the game is complete

If you're a senior programmer making 6 figures at a game development studio you are probably being under-compensated and overworked compared similar positions you could be doing software dev for other industries. The other staff below management is not making anywhere near 6 figures at a games studio.

Same, never owned the switch, never played smash, Banjo or Zelda and the only nintendo console i owned was the 3ds but i can safely say Nintendo won 100%

This is a good thing though.

Owning games is a thing of the past. You have to learn to let go, you can't always be playing the same game. Get with the times, the trends. Play the latest and newest games right as they are released. It's all about in the moment. Nostalgia is nothing but strings.

This but unironically.

You say that yet companies are cashing in on nostalgia left and right with repackaged plug-n-play units.

It's not our fault that game companies can't come up with reasons to sell us games which can't compete with games released before them. Creating an artificial scarcity by making it impossible to play the old games is their easy way out, and if we're lucky, enthusiasts will continue to circumvent their draconian policies.

What kind of faggot reads stock market values like this

You aren't entitled to play all the games that exist. Sometimes, you were just too late and missed the boat and will have to live with missing out on that experience.

Kinda, yeah. But Japanese businesses are also profoundly amazing at wasting time, energy and resources. Like having 4 meetings a day with the big wigs to talk about what they're going to do in that particular day for 4-5 hours, then do that thing for 2 hours maybe while the big wigs go home or go out to soaplands. Then the desk jockeys stay for another 5 hours of overtime to actually get work done, but because they're working for 12-14 hours a day 6 days a week they're burnt out and the 7ish hours of actually working is hardly productive and closer to 2-3 hours of proper work.

>address game streaming trends
You mean a retarded idea that's going to fail horribly thanks to both market disinterest as well as the internet infrastructure of the US involving very slow speeds, spread out populations, and commonly data caps?

I'm not going to buy future games that will just be taken from me arbitrarily. The idea that we have to be "Missing out" isn't a problem for a huge portion of games, so I'm not about to pay into it becoming one. Quit being a sheep and recognize that games deserve to live on beyond the life of their profit margins. Or if you're trying to argue on the side of buddhism/entropy winning, then fuck off to an activity that actually supports that kind of thinking and/or quit larping as a monk.

2019 is gonna be a dry fucking year

First of all, fuck off Sterling. What makes you so sure that the drop is because of the "we don't do crunch" talk and not because of the delay?

At some point we need to escape the "shareholders above all else" mentality in economics.

I worked with investors before. Some of the conversations they have are the most retarded shit you can think of, a lot of this people follow trends like a fly follows shit. The worst part is that they aren't just seeking just money, this retards genuinely belive the latest buzzword is always the future. They are dumbasses and a lot of them got their position purely because of nepotism.

Pretty sure the PS4 shitting on the competition in sales is why they're relevantr in America. Nobody gives a fuck about Naughty Dog and Isnomniac compared to how many people buy it for Fifa/CoD/Multiplats

Is it damage control if you're correcting someone's misinformation?

Nowhere near, they make like 40k a year and QA testers make even less.

Todd Howard probably makes 6 figure, but he’s in senior management. You’re a fucking retard.
