Presumably so it can make a profit without having to rely on favorable currency exchange rates. Nintendo's doing better than in years prior, but it's hardly in a healthy position at the moment.

Companies can do right selling buildings and insurances. Favorable currency exchange rates counts too, at least for a couple of years.

Perhaps, but having your business model bring you to profitability only due to the mercy of a volatile element outside your control is a terrible business plan. I can guarantee you that, spin notwithstanding, the folks in Kyoto were still not pleased with the numbers.
