Nintendo Probability Of Bankruptcy

For stocks, Probability Of Bankruptcy is normalized value of Z-Score. For funds and ETFs it is derived from a multi-factor model developed by Macroaxis.The score is used to predict probability of a firm or a fund going into bankruptcy or experiencing financial distress within next 24 months. Unlike Z-Score, Probability Of Bankruptcy is the value between 0 and 100 indicating the actual probability the firm will be distressed in the next 2 fiscal years.

How odd, earlier this year they said Sony had 79% chance which has dropped to 45, and they had Nintendo at a much higher position.
If things change that drastically that quick, its clear their criteria for determining bankruptcy likelihood is too loose.

yeah just seems like blind guess work. Niether company is going anywhere the patents and ips both own are vast.

itBourne3683d ago

Wait, what? The Wii U is doing shit, but the 3ds is booming. Also Nintendo has a mass pile of money stockpiled. They could fail on their next 2 consoles and still not be out of money.

imXify3683d ago

People just don't understand that when you lose money in a business it's exponential.

Xof3683d ago

It certainly is.
But don't just call it what it is.
Remember to advice your fellow users to RATE DOWN rubbish sites like these.

This is a number that changes almost daily. if Nintendo announced Zelda Today, you would see the number drop a ton. Its pointless.

eaise3683d ago

First probability is from 0-1. Nothing can be over 100% probability, which is 1.
Nintendo going bankrupt in the next 2 fiscal years is next to impossible. The real probability would be around 7% just because even with the mass amount of money they could still go bankrupt if they make millions of stupid decisions.
But that isn't gonna happen

Yep, this system is broken. First the Sony thing (Sony may have trouble, but not to the extent it was stated back then, IMO, and they're on route to recovery). Now we have this, a estimate for a company that, Wii U having a hard time or not, will not fall in 2 years time.

hellzsupernova3683d ago

noway not with 10billion in the bank.

JewyMcJew3683d ago

I doubt it, Nintendo is swimming in cash. They could lose money for years without having to absorb debt.

It's kinda a shame. If they had more pressure, they would publish their wonderful games on other systems for the cash.

wonderfulmonkeyman3683d ago (Edited 3683d ago )

That would be a BAD thing, so it's good they're not under that kind of pressure.
Actually, now that I think about it, Nintendo stated that they'd rather die and take their franchises with them before they'd go third party, so that detrimental-to-Nintendo dream dies before it ever takes off.
People who want Nintendo games should just get a Nintendo system.
We don't see Nintendo gamers begging for Halo or Infamous on the Wii U; if they want those games, they suck it up and save up for the systems that those games call home, and become multiplatform gamers in the process.
You know, like gamers who aren't just console-war-soldiers do.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos2d ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger882d ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.

Infinite Space: The Story Of A Forgotten Space Opera And Sega's Negligence

Space opera fans deserve a chance to experience the vastness of Infinite Space, and Sega needs to make up for its mistake.

ZeekQuattro2d ago

I still go back to Infinite Space from time to time. Probably the most underrated game I ever played.

Felt like I was the only person who bought and played this lol
