Nintendo’s irrelevancy

In an industry where being current will drive profits, Nintendo Co., Ltd (ADR) (OTCMKTS:NTDOY) is lagging behind. Sony Corporation (ADR) (NYSE:SNE) has consistently been ahead of the pack in the release of its gaming systems, and it looks to have console releases down to an art. Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ:MSFT)still has time to change many of the restrictions on the Xbox One, but if sales of both consoles were to begin today, Sony would be far ahead of the pack. Nintendo, well that company will have increase research and development activity to really get back in the action.
