As outlined in global exchanges, Nintendo is now valued at $100.24 billion, with a stock price of $85.81 on the Tokyo Stock Exchange. These figures make Nintendo the 7th largest Japanese company in the world, trailing behind global giants like Toyota, Sony, and Mitsubishi.

In that regard, it's expected that Nintendo will quickly surpass Fast Retailing, the holding company for Uniqlo, to take the #6 spot on the Japanese company index. Nintendo has achieved a 44.9% increase in market capitalisation since 2024, with numbers continuing to climb as the company approaches the June 5 launch of the Switch 2.

With less than a month until the console's release, fans are clamoring to get their hands on the new handheld. According to reports from late April, demand is "far exceeding" commercial expectations, with over 2.2 million pre-order applications in Japan alone.

Nintendo also finds itself in the grips of a legal battle with accessory maker Genki, after unofficial Switch 2 mockups surfaced in late April, reportedly stolen directly from a factory floor.

Regardless, investor confidence in Nintendo is at an all-time high, with Nintendo shares continuing to soar in anticipation of the new console. Reports indicate that Switch 2 preorders are currently sold out at Target, Best Buy, Walmart and GameStop in the US. Mashable has only reported one brief restock, with Walmart briefly replenishing its Switch 2 inventory on Saturday, April 24.
