Nintendo shares soar to a new record as anticipation builds for upcoming announcements and the success of the Switch 2.

As sales of the Switch 2 keep climbing and anticipation for significant announcements at the upcoming Nintendo Direct intensifies, Nintendo’s stock has surged to a record high of 14,355 yen (approximately $96.98) in Japan.

Following the Switch 2’s launch on June 5, 2025, Nintendo’s stock witnessed a rise across international markets, while notable game releases like Donkey Kong Bananza on July 17 contributed positively to its trading value. With expectations for more major announcements in the coming months, alongside the celebration of Super Mario Bros.’s 40th anniversary, investors are closely monitoring Nintendo’s activities which may lead to further stock gains.

Nintendo Stocks Break Records Thanks to the Switch 2

According to data from Google Finance, Nintendo’s stock price peaked at 14,355 yen on August 8, 2025, and reached new heights in U.S. markets as well, climbing to $24.44 per share on August 11. These figures mark an extraordinary moment for Nintendo, surpassing double the stock’s peak during the Wii era and edging close to doubling the previous heights of the Switch.

While Nintendo has yet to announce a Direct for September, history suggests that such showcases typically occur in this month, often unveiling major first-party titles. With the iconic Super Mario Bros. milestone approaching, it is likely that Nintendo is gearing up for impactful announcements that could further elevate stock prices.

In spite of fewer game releases tied to the Switch 2, sales remain robust, continuously setting records and contributing to the rise of Nintendo’s stock valuation. Given that a number of upcoming games for the Switch 2 have been teased and additional announcements expected, there’s great interest in how high Nintendo’s stock will ultimately ascend.
