Forums - Nintendo - Nintendo 3rd Quarter Results (Oct-Dec) - Profit of over 450 million US

Wait, it says "Sales Units". Does that mean that 30mil 3DS's were sold as well as 100m Wiis?

What was their Operating Income for quarters 1 and 2. Curious to see if they were positive this quarter or not.

They are negative for the year, but wondering if positive currently.

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 guess we were right. The yen in their favour has offset the losses from last quarter. Sony should benefit from this as well! Cash reserves are up compared to last quarter :)



Overall good news. Not amazing but not bad either. The new forecast was expected, so I don't think anyone is surprise there. Also Wii is so close to 100m!!



Nintendo and PC gamer

To retailers or whatever.  Isn't that how the companies report now a days?

VGChartz only records sales to customers.  So the difference would be consoles sitting on shelves.  At least thats how I believe it is.

28,000 million yen loss which is equivalent to over 300 million.

Now profit positive this quarter. Do a bit of Math and Nintendo did over 450 million this quarter to offset the losses from the last 2 quarters

I'm pretty sure they are positive. The 450 Million is supposed to offset their losses.



Why the title is saying 450 million???
