Huge operating income over 250 billion yen, but they took a huge hit on currency losses, which wiped out 174 billion yen.

Fortunately only the financial ones, which means business is going on as expected (except for external factors).

You mean Sony or Nintendo? I suppose Nintendo as you said conservative.

I'm sure Sony does hedge, although that doesn't remove the whole impact. Nintendo I don't know, never saw them talking about it.

Let's compare with VGChartz:

First hardware, I'm using LTD numbers from week ending 02nd January 2009 for VGChartz, numbers in million of units.

	Wii worldwide	Wii Japan	Wii Americas	Wii Other	DS worldwide	DS Japan	DS Americas	DS Other
VGChartz estimates	45,55	7,67	21,08	16,79	97,12	25,49	32,08	39,54
Nintendo shipment	44,96	7,80	20,40	16,76	96,22	25,67	31,93	38,62

One thing I'm not certain of, does Nintendo include the DSi in the the totals?

So Nintendo made about $3,000,000,000 USD? Or did I misplace a decimal point?

I Blame Wii Fit!
