I would say going long on Sadness at 45dkp is not a bad shout, its a complete gamble, but i certainly wouldn't go short on it. The only thing that's stopping me taking the gamble is that i dont want to tie up my money for 2 years before i see any serious return, that is if there is any. I would say that zukaus having 30mil long is actually in this case a bad thing because when the game does eventually come out, if the gamble doesnt pay off and there's bad sales numbers the price of the stock is going to be seriously low with zukaus selling out his long position. Even if sales are good when zukaus decides to pull out the price is going to go low, unless he has 100% conviction until the stock gets delisted, which would mean a 2-3 year investment you would effectively be going against him.[ Oracle ] [ Level 22 ] [ Rank: 150 ]bids

Short wins big time...it is just harder to maintain shorts for long periods of time, or so it seems.
Not sure why those holding it long think it will be a blockbuster. Probably hoping for a 'pop' if it is announced and then getting out of Dodge.[ Oracle ] [ Level 21 ] [ Rank: 475 ]bids

"most people" in your definition cover hardcore gamers only, people like you and me. "Real life's most people" is those who either didn't game, or are casual gamer (those who play solitaire on PC, tetris on dedicated Tetris machine some 10 - 15 years ago, Tamagotchi machine player around 15 - 20 years ago, IIRC). People like my mother, my father etc.[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

What happen IF Sadness is released and got bad sales #, something like Geometry Wars Wii or Battle of the Bands ? Those two game GLS is around 15 DKP, way lower than current Sadness price (around 45 DKP).[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

Until I dumped EVERYTHING in September and rebuilt my portfolio I was LONG on Sadness...there is little risk at these prices other than tying up your money...
If the game NEVER gets made all trades are rolled by...shorts don't 'win' in this scenario...If the game IS made then the LONGS have a good chance to make some money at current levels. That, I would surmise, would be the reason for holding onto your longs.[ Oracle ] [ Level 21 ] [ Rank: 475 ]bids

RE: Official 2009 Nintendo Release Schedule@apujanata,Its true that it doesn't say that anyone should switch but I'm just saying that most people are looking for those certain high level games like the next Zelda game or the next Super Mario game[ Elite ] [ Level 15 ] [ Rank: 690 ]bids

Where is your comment coming from (what is the cause of your comment) ? Is there any mention in the article that "Nintendo's S/W are so amazing, every X360, PS3 or PSP owner should switch to Nintendo's H/W"
@ksparydad,
Is it high time for player to short Sadness ? I mean, when should we wait for it ? 2020 ?
Of course, going against Zukaus and his deep investment of Sadness long (30 Million DKP last time I check) is very risky.[ Oracle ] [ Level 30 ] [ Rank: 14935 ]bids

I think this is a case of zukaus having so much money, he didn't even have better investment opportunity elsewhere, so he can afford to have 30 million of his money invested in it.
He might even get those stocks at very low price, since argon went all-out short on it, and I imagine that some other players, zukaus, ksprayday, might pick the stock at "everyday low price", to paraphrase Wal-mart's slogan.
Worse come to worse, and IF sadness GLS is only 15 DKP, probably a worse case scenario, Zukaus will only lose about two thirds of his 30 Million investment, or lose 20 Million DKP. He will still be #1, even with those massive loss (I would go minus, since my current worth is only 18 Million)
