We actually don't know this for a fact, people have mistranslated and misconstrued this statement greatly. It probably is by now (one would hope a nearly 4 year old piece of tech is profitable), but we don't know for sure. 

Nintendo is in a very bad spot here honestly, the fuck ups with the Wii U and the decline of the traditional handheld market has put them in a bad position now. 

Yes we actualy do know that fact

Wii U still have same $299 launch price, even without this fact its logical that 2 years later hardware will be become profitable with same price, because on launch we know that Nintendo made profit with one console and just one sold game.

Nintendo is in bad postion, but not in very bad beacuse they made good profit in 2014. fiscal year and in first quarter of this year, as long as they make money and not lose it, they are not in very bad postion regardless of console sales.

Saying that, in 2015. year they will very likely be again in profit, and I think next year even without new hardware (we already know that WiiU/3DS will have decent lineups and they will certainly have price cuts) they can still be in profit, so yes they can easily go through 2016. without new hardware, but I don't think that will be cause because this are bad sales and bad profit for Nintendo standards and evryething points we will have new hardeare next year, but we cant be 100% confident that we are geting new hardware next year and not in 2017, but chances are bigger for 2016. relase date.

Dat truth make dem like
