Nintendo stock price has fallen 33% in Japan since August, VGC reports

Nintendo’s (NTDOY) stock price in Japan has fallen about 33% over the past five months, with the company’s August 2025 record high of 14,795 yen dropping to 9,950 earlier this week, VideoGamesChronicle’s Chris Scullion reports. Some have speculated that the August 2025 high was due to the Switch 2 console smashing sales records in Japan and in the U.S. following its June 2025 launch, and the drop has been attributed to factors such as slowing Switch 2 sales over the holiday period and a lack of a “killer” exclusive game seven months into the console’s existence, the author notes.
