As of a couple weeks ago, the 3DS is no longer being sold at a loss.


I'm not sure that's strictly true.  I believe it was a mis-translation where they said they're getting closer to profitability, but still selling at a loss for the time being.

"Nintendo expects to cease selling it below cost by the middle of the fiscal year ending March 13, 2013"

That was April 26th.  If there's any update since then that I've missed, then feel free to let me know.  But the middle of this fiscal year would be September, so if they haven't reached it yet it's not a huge surprise.

I'm pretty sure the 3DS XL is not being sold at loss, don't know about the normal 3DS
