I don't think its turning much of a profit, if any at all.
There's a reason why they don't bother with supporting it first-party, or in general even shipping it outside of Japan. The money they have to spend marketting, stocking, and even building the thing costs them too much given the returns to justify it. If the n3DS eats more and more into their niche establishment in Japan, it really will turn into a money pit they will have to discontinue.
