Nintendo Co. ’s shares plunged the most in three months after the company forecast hardware and software sales declines, a sign that the Switch 2 has yet to create a self-sustaining demand cycle. The Kyoto-based company’s stock price fell 10% in Tokyo on Monday to its lowest since August 2024. Nintendo says it expects Switch 2 unit sales to fall 17% and software sales to fall 11% in the fiscal year to March. That’s as the rising cost of memory chips and other materials forced the company to announce price hikes for the Switch 2, the original Switch, online subscriptions and playing cards. The company said it expects a ¥100 billion ($640 million) impact on profit from high memory prices and US tariffs this year. Nintendo shares had shed close to 30% this year through Friday, with concerns growing about the slow pace of game launches since the Switch 2’s debut in June. Consumers in Japan rushed to electronics stores to buy the Switch 2 following Nintendo’s price announcement, with stock at many online and physical retailers evaporating over the weekend. Demand for the hardware remains robust, with analysts saying that Nintendo is perhaps being overly conservative. “Why would Nintendo issue guidance for declining software sales when they should be ramping up user activity in the console’s crucial second year?” Morningstar analyst Kazunori Ito said. “It’s baffling.”

一个开发者最崩溃的时刻,不是 AI 写错代码。 而是它刚刚读完仓库、刚刚理清 bug、刚刚准备动手修改,屏幕突然弹出一句话: 你已达到当前会话的使用限制。 上下文断了,推理链没了,刚才那一大段排查过程像没发生过一样。你只能重新开一个会话,把问题从头再说一遍,然后看着它像失忆的实习生一样重新摸索项目结构。 这就是很多开发者过去几个月使用 Claude Code 的真实体验。 曾经,它几乎是 AI 圈...
