Production costs fall over time. There might be a more cost efficient 3DS model on the way.

Exchange rate for a Japanese company could make a huge difference. If the yen weakens that would be a big help.

Last year, they had some pretty big R&D budgets. This could have been as a part of the QOL platform, and they might start recovering that money next year.

QOL stuff.

It's really not inconceivable that they'll make money. Of course, I'm not saying it's likely either. They made money during the cube days too. I don't know how exactly they'll do it, because I don't know their financials.
