Not good for the 3DS and especially Wii U. Way below their expectations.

So wait, the profit is $450 million, but the net profit is only $159 million?



What are their expectation for year's end? Are they expecting a profit?



 

What?! I can't hear you over all this awsome! - Pyrrhon (Kid Icarus:Uprising)

Final Ultimate Legendary Earth Power Super Max Justice Future Miracle Dream Beautiful Galaxy Big Bang Little Bang Sunrise Starlight Infinite Fabulous Totally Final Wonderful Arrow...FIRE! - Wonder-Red (The Wonderful101)

 

Almost exactly what some of us expected. Forex serving like the big equalizer. Any short term operational shortcomings gets canceled out by fx. My voodoo math says they revised some 40 billion yen in losses vs original 20 billion yen in operating income, but net income went up from 10 billion yen too 20 billion yen.  Their original yen expection was 80 and now is 90....thats about 50 billion in non operating income boost to fill the void of the loss and topping it off by 10 billon.

I thought the 3DS met expectations? That's where they got all of this money from.

One person is saying 159 million the other is saying 450 million.

It does kinda put it into perspective though where Nintendo (and Sony) sit compared to the likes of Microsoft ($6.4 billion profit) and Apple ($20+ billion profit) for the same quarter, lol.


Nintendo Gross Profit is 127,251 million yen.

Convert that to dollars and you have your answer.

If you want Net income is 14,545 million yen.  Again convert.

Gross Profit = $1.4 billion U.S

Net Income = $160 million U.S

But as I said earlier Gross profit is kind of a pointless number.  Operating Income is more important.

Hmm...Interesting.

Really need to get those 3DS sales up in NA and EU, hopefully Pokemon will do the trick.
