But fact is that they loss only around $9m till now, and with this year (most likely only with this Q1) they will become profitable this gen.

That $9m figure is Net Profit, how is that in anyway related to how their hardware business is performing? You're latching on to that Net Profit figure but really it's irrelevant to this thread, the thread doesn't say Nintendo lost money, it says their products have lost money. Which is correct.

If you go few posts up you will see that I answer to post that said Nintendo made more profit in FY 2010/2011 than they have lost this generation, and that isn't true because currently have just around 9 million loss of profit and they will actually have solid profit this gen with this fiscal year.

Yup, and most of people don't realise that and think beacuse OP Nintendo have loss of hundreds of millions this gen even isn't true.

Not the OP's fault though really, he stated facts If people interpret them wrong it's their fault. People could take your facts and may assume that Nintendo's products have been profitable when that's not true either. Both of you are doing things wrong. Barkely is stating only Operating Profit, he's not lied or been deceitful but he could have given the Net Profit information to say "Nintendo's products have lost money this generation, but the company has not."

Meanwhile you are spreading only the "Net Profit" this generation, while yes what you say is true that Nintendo as a company has not lost money this generation it's just as bad as the OP as you're not stating the Operating Profit as well. "Nintendo haven't lost moeny this genreation but there compnay has."

Niether of you are telling both sides of the story.

Neither of you have lied, neither of you have really done anything wrong, but niether of you told both sides of the story.

You're trying to give Net Profit to discount this thread, which just isn't relevant.

My point is that because of this operating loss some people assuming that is equal profit, and Nintendo actually made loss of hundreds of millions this gen even isn't true.
