After Nintendo 'stole the show' at the E3 Expo, shares for the company have shot upwards!

With Nintendo's impressive showing drawing huge crowds at E3 last week, BBC News is reporting that the company's shares have risen 6.2% to 19,710 yen - though at one point the shares had climbed even higher.

Nintendo stocks are now being traded at their highest level since April 2002 - great news for the company indeed.

Thanks to R-E reader Kirusato for the heads-up!
