Nah, the numbers weren't measuring up so Nintendo just said "F*** it, let's just lie to our shareholders, they're down with it.  I mean, what's a felony or two among friends?"

:P

Operating income last FY was $262m.

First 6 months of this one and already at $351m, very nice.

Why are you asking?



My (locked) thread about how difficulty should be a decision for the developers, not the gamers.

Are those billion yen? Otherwise the conversion to $ makes no sense.

It has $ on them so I think they are already in $.

The values within the brackets are dollars, obviously, but the values that literally say 'million yen' behind them are in yen I'd hope.

But then the conversion is not correct. For example:

61,580 million yen = $542NOT $542 million

So there's either some zeros missing on the yen side of things or some generously added ones on the dollar side of things. :P

I think you're misunderstanding.

It's 61,580 million yen... a.k.a 61,580,000,000 yen or 61.58 Billion Yen.

Which is $542 Million.



I am very happy with this numbers!



Switch!!!
