Nintendo posted a net profit of 80.9 billion Japanese Yen, which is higher than its forecast but over 50 percent lower than its net profit for the same period last fiscal year.

    It’s clickbaity to say “profits fall by x% due to y reason”?

      Headlines like this always imply (at least the way I read them) as “Nintendo SHOCKED profits fall unexpectedly”

        I’m just saying that you’re the one adding that implication to a very uncharged statement

          Yes. I very clearly stated that - twice. And now for a third time - its my reading which leads to the implication.

          I didn’t say the headline was clickbait. The implication to me reads as clickbait. The headline I suggested reads, to me as less clickbaity.
