Sony only posted billion $ profits one year, nowhere near that otherwise as they were selling the PS2 at a big loss. GC+GBA are impossible to disentangle but the whole of Nintendo's gaming made considerably more than Sony/PS2, and the Gamecube had a high software sell-through rate to cover the losses on selling it at a loss (if they even did) and was highly cost-effective. At the very least, the NGC was did not lose them profits.
