Just so it is said: most profitable fiscal year ever for a console manufacturer. The Switch in 2020 was behind only the DS in 2008 and 2009 for the most sales of any system in one fiscal year. Amazing sales.

I thought Project Triangle Strategy was Square, why is it on the first party list?

Simple nintendo is the publisher
Oh ok, Octopath came out on PC/Xbox so I didn't think Nint would have a personal hand in this. Thanks!

Honestly I'm not expecting too much from Nint this year, probably one big holiday game as I don't think D/P remakes will cut it, but they might just do a Zelda All Stars kinda thing like last year.

it went down because their projections for next year aren't as high

but nintendo projections are always conservative so some people will never learn

(that said I bought more nintendo stock after the dip)

Also earnings for companies that are widely known as very successful have ridiculous expectations attached to them. Amazon also had their best year ever and the stock dropped on their last earnings (even before it was announced that Bezos was stepping down).

Gotta get in early.

It will be really interesting to see the research and analysis of what impact the pandemic had on various industries. Anecdotally, it is impossible to find ANYTHING to entertain kids, as things like pools/swing sets/bikes/etc are constantly selling out. The combination of people wanting to keep their kids occupied coupled with the extra disposable income from not commuting, not going on vacation, not going to movies/concerts makes the perfect storm for companies like Nintendo/Sony to make bank.

Out of curiosity, what the heck was it that made the DS sell more than any other system in any given year in those particular years? Especially considering that was already several years into the system's lifetime (2009 in particular was closer to the release of the 3DS than to the release of the DS). I know that an update came out in 2009 with some new features that no one really cared about, but that shouldn't have done so drastically more than any other new model of a system I wouldn't think.

Price drop I'd guess. Having a good library probably helped too. I think some people underestimate how many people buy consoles for old games.

if I had to guess why the DS was big in 2009 Pokemon HG/SS might have had something to do with it
