The only chartz that you posted that are of any relevance is the money chartz because that is what my post was about. everybody knows that nintendo was in the red for the first time in HISTORY at the beginning of the generation. youre not educating anybody, here. their four years of going through a rough patch isnt going to be the end of them. yeah, it fucking sucks, but as i stated before, theyre going to be just fine. they are profitting off the wii u, were you trying to refute that point? theyre making money off of every console sold. the bigger point is that nobody is as good at making money off this industry as nintendo.

You wrote "nintendo is ALWAYS going to make a profit off of every generation." But they don't profit of this generation (as I have shown) yet and I doubt it will still happen this or next year. Your calculation "price of the console minus production costs = profit" is a bit too simple and ignores a lot of additional costs besides BOM.

 

 

 

 

Actually if look bottom of line and Net Income, Nintendo is making profit. For this fiscal year (year they will end on 31. March) Nintendo will have similar Net Income like previous year, so definitely Nintendo is making profit even this gen.
