Why was the the latest year for the Wii not very profitable?

Some accounting thing they apparently do every 5 years from what some people have told me. I know the trick (roughly), but I didn't know they did it once to account for 5 years. 

Next year should be a good year again. 

Nintendo holds much of its profits in foreign currency. If those currencies do poorly then eventually, Nintedo has to make adjustments to compensate.

Ok that makes sense. The yen must not be doing so good.
