Where are you getting that $224 million figure from? OP only says 215 million yen.

Net income =/= profit.

The actual profit was only about $2 million.


Net income is profit, lol. 

Pretty sure that operating income number is incorrect anyway if they made 24 billion yen in net profit, with 15.5 billion coming from currency gains, the rest has to be operating income. 

This is the Neogaf number straight from Nintendo's own earnings report:

Q2

96.7 billion yen revenue
9.5 billion yen operating income 
24.2 billion yen net income

Better look their sheets yourself:

Even if they made 1 penny in operating income, you do realize NET income is the end of the day take home pay day right? So they did make $224 million last quarter any way you slice it. 

Also you guys should look at the statement, the operating number is for SIX MONTHS from April-September, so it takes into account Nintendo's negative earnings from the Apr-June quarter. They made an operating profit from July-September and an even bigger net profit.
