Last week, Nintendo released Pokemon Pokopia to rave reviews and massive commercial success, shocking many who were not expecting much out of a cozy Pokemon spin-off game.
According to Bloomberg, this “surprise” success led to Nintendo’s share price increasing by around 15%, from ¥8,606 to ¥9,932. This boost comes after Nintendo’s stock had been in a slump for many months as a result of doom and gloom in the games industry over component shortages, rising tech prices, and advancements of AI.
This news likely cements Pokopia as on of the Switch 2’s system sellers alongside Mario Kart World and Donkey Kong Bananza, although only time will tell just how well it can keep up the momentum. Stay tuned for more updates as they come.
