We are on the right horse

With people around the world confined to their homes, the companies keeping everyone entertained are thriving. What's happening: Nintendo (NTDOF) said Thursday that profit in the three months to March more than tripled compared with the previous quarter. Recent sales have been driven in large part by the breakout success of "Animal Crossing: New Horizons," a game set on an island utopia for the Nintendo Switch game console."Animal Crossing" sold a record 11.8 million units in March, making it the best Switch launch since the device was released in 2017."It is incredible for hardware going into its fourth year to sell so well," said Hideki Yasuda, an analyst at Ace Research Institute. "It's an uncertain world already, and no one wants war and horror games in their living room. Animal Crossing keeps the parents happy, too."
