    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.
