Nintendo sees its stock rise 15% in two days following the release of Pokémon Pokopia

The release of Pokémon Pokopia on March 5 seems to have been extremely positive for Nintendo. Indeed, the Japanese manufacturer has seen its stock rise significantly in recent days.

Since November 2025, Nintendo's stock had been in free fall. After peaking at ¥14,105 ($89.09), it reached its lowest point on February 13 at ¥8,350 ($52.74) per share. This decline of more than 40% has finally been halted.

The group's share price rose from ¥9,120 ($57.60) on Tuesday to ¥10,075 ($63.65) on Wednesday, an increase of 10.4%. This increase has even reached 15% since Monday. Hideki Yasuda, senior analyst at Toyo Securities, attributed this strong financial performance to the unexpected success of Pokémon Pokopia.

"The Pokémon game was a surprise hit. It went completely unnoticed, which makes its popularity all the more positive."
