And yet Nintendo made last FY higher profit than hole Sony.

http://www.cnbc.com/2017/04/28/sony-earnings-fy-17.html

"Sony forecast profit to reach 500 billion yen ($4.50 billion) in the financial year through March 2018..."

"Nintendo is aiming for operating profit of 65 billion yen this fiscal year..."

 

500 > 65

That isn't profit, thats actually operating income.

"Sony forecast profit to reach 500 billion yen ($4.50 billion) in the financial year through March 2018 from 288.7 billion yen a year prior, when earnings were roughly in line with a revised estimate announced earlier this month."

Operating income - 288.7

Again that change anything, this year Sony had much higher operating income for FY 2017 but Nintendo had bigger profit. Not to mention we talking about current situation, not future.
