PS3 at 399$ on 3rd year is ahead of GC(99$) by 8 mln. =)

The confusion lies in that Nintendo made more profit in the PS2 years (2000 - 2006) than Sony's game division did. It is difficult to split apart the GC and GBA/DS sections of Nintendo without properly readin the reports, which I can't be bothered with. But I would guess the PS2 made something in the region of 2-3 times the profit that the GC did.

Still. 2-3 times is nothing compared to the huge disparity in hardware and more importantly, software sales.

The handheld arguement makes a lot of sense.
