The earnings numbers are good. 

Year over year sales are up over 100%. To put things in perspective, last year, they lost almost 25bn yen in Q1.

So when will they go back to making big profits like a few years ago? 

To add to what Green said about building an install-base, probably after a year or two when there's a solid install-base by that time a lot of their games and various accesories will be out and still selling decently (eg games like MK and Splatoon which have legs), so on-top of new releases that'll give them big profits i imagine. Whether it's as big as in the Wii/DS games we shall see!

OT:  Solid numbers. More than i expected from ARMS certainly. Reading this i can see them maintaining stock to 10m, possibly higher if they hadn't taken into account production increases in that number.
