The new Pokémon Presents could be a huge catalyst for Nintendo stock. Pokémon is one of the video game company's largest series, with 489 million units sold as of March 2025. That means any new games announced during the presentation could see huge sales on Nintendo's Switch 2, which launched last month and has already shipped 5 million units.
Of course, there are also going to be updates to upcoming games that have already been announced. That includes Pokémon Legends: Z-A, which is set to come out later this year. Nintendo may finally reveal a release date during this Pokémon Presents. Pokémon Legends: Z-A is also expected to sell well, as it will release on the original Switch too, which has sold 152.12 million units.
Nintendo Stock Movement Today
Nintendo stock was up 4.26% on Monday, extending its 52.77% year-to-date rally and 53.7% gain over the past 12 months.
Another positive for the stock are details from a 3D character modeler on LinkedIn about an upcoming Nintendo game. Taksehi Maruyama posted that he is working on the sequel to a Nintendo strategy role-playing game (SRPG) that will be released on the Switch 2. This is likely a new entry in the Fire Emblem series.
Is Nintendo Stock a Buy, Sell, or Hold?
Turning to Wall Street, the analysts' consensus rating for Nintendo is Moderate Buy, based on eight Buy, two Hold, and a single Sell rating over the past three months. With that comes an average NTDOF stock price target of $94.33, representing a potential 6.02% upside for the shares.

Todd McFarlane Teases Big SPAWN Movie News, Confirms Director Announcement Timeline — GeekTyrant
It's been a long road for the Spawn movie, but creator Todd McFarlane just dropped a promising update during an interview with ComicBook at San Diego Comic-Con. The project, which fans have been waiting on for years, appears to be moving toward a major milestone, and it involves an A-list director. McFarlane opened up about the frustrations of getting the film off the ground and why this time feels different: 'I've been talking about it for seven years and it just seems like there's always an impediment that's frustrating and I, to some extent, I know I've frustrated my wife. She's like, 'Stop talking about it, just make it,' and I think it's fair. 'I think the fans are the same way. What I will say is that we are still moving along. I went and met with a director, we want to sign them, they gave me the numbers last week, we've given it to them, hopefully, he signs on.' So, there's already a contract out for a director McFarlane calls an A-list talent. But fans shouldn't expect an immediate announcement. The creator explained he wants to do things differently this time: 'I don't think we'll announce when he signs on. I think what we'll do is we'll announce when we have the script and we've got the buyer. Instead of doing what I've done before, every time we hire somebody, I announce it, is to just go, 'It sold with this director, writer, these people attached as actors, boom, boom, boom, this is what we're gonna make,' that would be it. 'But the contract went out, literally, last week. I'm here to tell you it's an A[-list] director, from my perspective. I go, 'Wow,' we keep getting lucky with Spawn. The people who are excited about it are people that are in the top tier, from my perspective, so it's like, 'Wow. Okay, cool.' So we'll see.' McFarlane also reassured fans that Blumhouse Productions remains fully committed to bringing Spawn to life: 'Again, fingers crossed he wants to do something creepy, too. We're just jibing. I'm supposed to be getting a pit stop from him here in the next month and when we do that, then the script goes and hopefully we sign whatever. We'll see. 'But we're constantly trying to move that thing forward. We haven't stopped. It's constantly going. And, if you talk to Jason [Blum], him and his crew are pushing it too, right? They want this thing to happen as much as I do.' As for the title? Last year's big reveal of King Spawn as a working title got some conversation going, but McFarlane says it's not final and not based on the comic series of the same name: 'It's probably just a working title. I think it's cool. It's strong. The thing is, is that it was a way for us to say that we're not just gonna emulate the past and he felt by just calling it Spawn plain old Spawn that it would sort of go, oh, this is just a reboot and, and repeat. 'So I don't know if that would be the final title or whatever. You have to clear things and let go and all those other things. But it was just a way to separate it, to just at least for us internally just to say, hey, this is our version that is different from the one decades ago.' But, the Spawn movie is alive and creeping closer to reality, with an A-list director on the horizon and Blumhouse pushing full steam ahead. If things go according to plan, McFarlane might finally get to bring his hellish antihero back to the big screen in a way fans have been waiting for. Jamie Foxx is still attached to star in the movie, and the script was written by Matt Mixon, Malcolm Spellman ( Falcon and the Winter Soldier ), and Scott Silver ( Joker ). McFarlane previously teased: ' Deadpool is a fun R. Something like Joker 2 is a serious R. Our movie is going to be super serious and dark and gritty. It's going to be an at times a heavy movie. 'If you like serious drama, with meaningful themes that are relevant and that may even some reflection of the world we live in, then this has a lot of those elements in it.' The film has previously been described as 'Spawn meets David Fincher' and a 'gritty' and 'dirty thing.' When previously talking about his take on the story. McFarlane explained: "There's two big roles in the script. There's obviously sort of Spawn himself, although in a weird way it's not the biggest role, and then there's the cop. 'The cop is this character Twitch who's been there since issue #1. Twitch is the role in this one, and I sort of refer to him as my sheriff Brody, who is the sheriff in the Jaws movie. 'Although it was called Jaws , Jaws didn't really talk a lot in his movie, right? He just kind of showed up at the opportune time to make the movie worthwhile." I hope this turns out to be a great movie!

Forget the Switch 2 — right now you can save $150 off one of the best handheld gaming PCs
Summer is still in full swing and it's a great time to travel, but if you love PC gaming that can mean leaving behind some of your favorite ways to pass the time. Not so if you own one the Lenovo Legion Go, which for a limited time has been discounted down to $599 at Best Buy. That's $150 off the usual $650 asking price, a sweet discount on one of the best handheld gaming consoles you could buy this summer. The Lenovo Legion Go gives you a gorgeous 8.8-inch display with 144Hz refresh rate, and those detachable controllers (plus built-in kickstand) for quick multiplayer action. Inside you'll find that powerful AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme chip, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD. Now look, I know if I mention "handheld gaming consoles" right now most people think of the new Nintendo Switch 2. But what's cool about the Lenovo Legion Go is that it copies one of the Switch's best features: those cool removable handheld controllers! As you can read in our Lenovo Legion Go review, those detachable controllers and the built-in kickstand make the Go great for PC gaming on the go, alone or with a pal. You can plop one of those controllers into an included base and use it on your knee or coffee table like a mouse, too, just like you can on the Switch 2! The Lenovo Legion Go comes with a pair of USB-C ports as well, so you could conceivably plug in accessories like wired controllers if you want to set the Go up on a tray or coffee table. You can play lots of your favorite PC games well on the sharp 8.8" (2560x1600) 144Hz touchscreen thanks to the Go's powerful AMD Ryzen Z1 Extreme chip with Radeon graphics and 16GB of RAM. Plus, with 1TB of SSD storage you can squeeze a good number of games on there for your next trip. Plus, since the Go runs on a full copy of Windows 11 you can even get work done on it in a pinch. Admittedly, you'll probably want to plug in a USB-C mouse and keyboard since the Go's touchscreen is not the best for serious typing, but this functionality can help you get a spot of work done in between vacation gaming sessions. This is a great opportunity to score a high-end Lenovo Legion Go that's effectively also a fully functional portable PC for not much more than the Nintendo Switch 2 costs (assuming you luck into a Nintendo Switch 2 restock, of course), so act fast if you want one!

Kelly Osbourne Shares 'One of The Best Ozzy Moments' Days After Dad's Death
The Fashion Police alum took to her Instagram Stories to share a sweet throwback moment from Ozzy & Jack's World Detour, the A&E reality series featuring Ozzy and her brother Jack Osbourne. Kelly Osbourne is paying tribute to her late father, rock legend Ozzy Osbourne, just days after his death. On Saturday, Kelly took to her Instagram Stories to share sweet throwback moment from Ozzy & Jack's World Detour, the A&E reality series featuring Ozzy and her brother Jack Osbourne. The clip, originally from a family road trip episode, showed Kelly and her dad dancing together. "One of the best Ozzy moments ever!" she captioned the nostalgic clip. In the video, Kelly can be seen greeting her dad in their motorhome before saying, "Morning, I got this song in my head I have to play it for you," as she cues up "Paradise" by George Ezra. The two begin dancing, swaying side by side in the cramped RV space. "I love you," Kelly tells her father. "I love you more," Ozzy replies. The Black Sabbath frontman's family confirmed his passing earlier this week on Tuesday, July 22. He was 76. "It is with more sadness than mere words can convey that we have to report that our beloved Ozzy Osbourne has passed away this morning," the family shared in a statement. "He was with his family and surrounded by love. We ask everyone to respect our family privacy at this time." Two days later, Kelly addressed her father's death for the first time on social media. "I feel unhappy I am so sad," she wrote via her Instagram Story Thursday. "I lost the best friend I ever had." Just a week before Ozzy's unexpected death, Kelly had publicly clapped back at a fan who criticized her understanding of Parkinson's disease. The backlash came after she had previously denied rumors that Ozzy was "dying." "This is the s--t I wake up to," she said at the time, sharing a screenshot of a DM from a follower. "Wtf is wrong with people?" "Believe me I fully understand how this works," she continued. "Your message is incredibly rude. So firstly I want to tell you to go f--k yourself! He is not in stage 5!! That is not the way his kind of Parkinson's works." While Ozzy was diagnosed with the disease back in 2003, he first opened up publicly about is diagnosis during an interview on Good Morning America in 2020. "It's been terribly challenging for us all," he admitted at the time. "I did my last show New Year's Eve at The Forum. Then I had a bad fall. I had to have surgery on my neck, which screwed all my nerves." Despite those challenges, Ozzy delivered one final performance just weeks before his passing on July 5, with his band, Black Sabbath, in his hometown of Birmingham, England. Following Ozzy's Back to the Beginning show, it was announced that the concert would be getting a theatrical release. The film is slated for a 2026 release. "The feature-length concert film will be a big-screen celebration of Ozzy Osbourne and the legacy of Black Sabbath, capturing the raw power and emotional weight of Ozzy's final bow in his hometown of Birmingham," Mercury Studios said in a collab post announcing the release. "Presented as a love letter to Ozzy and the pioneering sound of Black Sabbath, the theatrical release will be a distilled version of the epic all-day event held at Villa Park," added the post. "Featuring thunderous performances of War Pigs, Iron Man, and a show-stopping Paranoid, the film promises a deeply personal and electrifying farewell from the godfather of heavy metal with exclusive behind-the-scenes access and interviews from this iconic live performance." In addition to the film, Ozzy's memoir, titled, Last Rites, is also set to be released posthumously in the coming year.
