Well Sony will have massive holiday sales for both hardware and software so I think they will outprofit Nintendo comfortably

I'm not sure you understand how profit this works. ^^

Its not just about sales, its about margins. Nintendo can easily sell 10x less systems and still make more profit than Sony. I'm afraid things arent as simple as you wanted them to be there. Sadly, we dont have the info to determine the inflexion points.

I do know how profit works lol. To easily sell 10 times less and profit more? Lol, not at this rate. They made the same profit with almost 50% of the sales.

Like someone pointed out, Nintendo's platforms are older and thus have higher profit margins due to manufacturing costs going down with time.
