So Nintendo actually made more money than Sony did in gaming? Wtf.

No they did not.  Nintendo's operating income is for three quarters, nine months, which is the 40 Billion Yen.  Sony's gaming division is 40 billion for one quarter, 3 months and would be 60 billion if it wasn't for currency.

So in order words Sony made in the last three months what Nintendo has made so far this fiscal year.
