Nintendo shares slump as games pipeline disappoints market

Nintendo’s shares fell 7.5% on Wednesday after the company’s Nintendo Direct presentation of forthcoming games lacked titles from top franchises such ‌as “Super Mario”.

The ⁠Kyoto-based ⁠company’s stock price has been hammered ​by concerns over a lack of high-profile ​games to build momentum for the Switch 2 gaming device.

The shares ​are down around ⁠a third ‌year-to-date.
