Bodhesatva said: This would average out to approximately 2.5-3 billion in profits, for the fiscal year, depending on the Christmas sales. The entirety of Microsoft made approximately 14 billion dollars in profits last year, so about 4-5 times this amount. The entirety of Sony made 1.5 billion last year, so Sony's profits as a whole would be about half that of Nintendo. Are any of my numbers and estimations incorrect? |
Here is their new estimate, which is still quite conservative. You have to keep in mine that Q3 can easily be 2-3x what the numbers are for Q1. This amount of profit is over the top.
The company raised its full-year net income forecast to a record 245 billion yen, 41 percent more than its April projection. Sales will reach 1.4 trillion yen, 45 percent more than the previous estimate.
