“Historically, Nintendo (NTDOY) has not been a high-quality business as almost all of its revenue was tied to the booms and busts of the video game console business. Unlike our “status quo” bets, our bet here is that Nintendo is becoming a high-quality business. The transformation is being driven by Nintendo’s transition to the Switch gaming platform, which should have a significantly longer life than the traditional video game consoles. Nintendo is also layering on significant subscription revenue and better monetization of IP in mobile games. These changes should provide more recurring revenues with higher margins. If this transition continues to progress, Nintendo will have revenue growth, margin improvement, and multiple expansion.”
