Kane99 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 With the recent news about Gamestop stock blowing up, and then falling right back down, it got me thinking. What video games or gaming companies would you actually invest in if you could? I obviously wouldn't put money in Gamestop anytime, soon, but I'm sure there are some studios, publishers and even games that have stocks worth investing in. I don't have the knowledge of stocks, so I doubt I'd ever try to invest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrik Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Rockstar, EA or Ubisoft, atleast these won't disappear after a while like unfortunately happened to lot of companies and games publishers ;( Withywarlock 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withywarlock Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Activision-Blizzard. For all the videos people do on their stock price going down when they do an oopsie, commentators constantly fail to mention their stock price going up immediately after a controversy has moved on. Without fail, ATVI soars mere days after reports of an unpopular hotfix or patch or a dodgy expansion launch, and currently shows no signs of stopping.

lludawg Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 How do you all see Sony and Nintendo doing in 2021? I have recently been getting into stocks and as of now, May 2021, the prices of these stocks seem to be on the lower end. If I invest now are there any events/releases that might bump up their stocks in the near future? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I would have to go with Rockstar if we're talking about software only. If we're including hardware, as much as I love Nintendo, I would have to go to Sony for the stock. I foresee them holding their value much better than Nintendo.

Crazycrab Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 I'd go for Microsoft right now. I think the Series X/S is going to be a late bloomer. killamch89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being that Microsoft has dominated the PC market for decades, there's no way their stock is going to be a bad choice to invest in. But personally, I don't think the Series X/S is going to impress very many people. I've already seen dozens of people on Craigslist trying to trade their X/S for a PS5, or to sell it for the money to order one, even if it's at a loss to them. People are actually actively trying to get rid of the system. I see it flopping. Not Stadia flopping, but flopping nonetheless. I just don't have any faith in the system.

That's true right now because there are no exclusive games on the system. A few years down the line when some of those big exclusives start coming from studios like Bethesda (Elder Scrolls VI), Ninja Theory (Hellblade 2) and The Initiative (Perfect Dark) the market ls going to swing back their way.

I tend to agree - Microsoft has been making some serious moves in the gaming industry in the last few years. In addition to that, Xbox Gamepass is blowing up like crazy and with the addition of Bethesda to their roster, it'll gain a lot more popularity going forward.

Heatman Posted July 23, 2021 Share Posted July 23, 2021 Well, having considered this very carefully, I believe that it's going to be very good idea to invest in Microsoft because they seems to be on top of the chart 📊 in market domination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
