What this is
The identity of the unlisted stake Nintendo sold in the year to March 2026: Niantic.
How it’s built
- Confirmed by the site’s author in October 2026; no document names the company.
What we assumed
- The sold stake is Niantic.Consistent with the sale timing, a full exit of an old stake at 29 times cost, and Nikkei naming Nintendo among Niantic holders paid out.
Sanity check
Nintendo’s reports never mention Niantic or Scopely by name, so this rests on circumstantial evidence; the research puts it at about 90% likely.
The value
- Niantic, Inc.
