Yep, we have an update about this, they said in the last quarter report that, from July 25 (or 26?) the 3DS was being sold above the manufacturing costs :), I am going out right now, but I am sure you can look it up yourserf, or someone can give you a link :) |
Oh, you're completely right, the dates on the stuff I was linking was way off.
What I should have linked (now I've found it) in my original post was this:
http://gamasutra.com/view/news/174700/Nintendos_losses_narrow_as_3DS_margins_improve.php
The update section at the bottom:
"Due to a misinterpretation, the original version of this story erroneously reported that Nintendo is no longer selling the 3DS at a loss versus its manufacturing cost. The story has been updated to fix this error."
Thats what I was having trouble with. Every other outlet seems to report it's now being sold at a profit. I'd still like to know whether there was a mis-translation or not, but it seems not given I can't find much more about it.
edit: And see my post below too! :P
