Nintendo still selling Wii U at a loss

They likely aren't factoring in currency flucuations though, so while the Wii U may still take a "loss" to manufacture, the fact is Nintendo is saving $70 per system at a $300-$350 price per unit due to the yen depreciation since last November.

That's just a fact.

Why are you factoring in MSRP into your calculations? ...or do yo9u think Nintendo gets all $350?

Even if it costs Nintendo lets say $380 a unit to make a Wii U (which is somewhat ridiculous IMO but lets go with that number), the weakening yen still means they save $70 now on units sold in North America now over last November. That's just how it goes.
