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.
