How to use this report
- Price check. BV puts one new followed link from nintendo.com at $831 (level A), priced on a blend of link types (A 59% · B 17% · C 24%): $416 to an unrelated site (×0.5), $1,039 to a same-topic site (×1.25). A followed editorial link (level A) would be worth up to $1,193 before relevance. A quote far above $1,491 for a level A link pays for what BV does not measure.
- Qualification and risk. Its Site Strength is 85 / 100; the link it usually gives is mostly level A — counted (an editorial citation). In the 10 articles we read, 0% of the links to other sites are nofollow, sponsored or ugc. The spam score of its links is 11 (0–100, the linking pages' average), not nintendo.com's own.
- Traffic reality check. Set any traffic claim beside the Sept 2026 estimate: 80.3M monthly visits, 44% from organic search (35.3M). Visits rose 25% from Jul 2026 to Sept 2026. Its top keyword by Visits (est.) is “nintendo switch 2”, about 830.7K a month; the ad value beside it is the whole market's.
