I can't really read it, or should I say interpret it. How much money did Nintendo make in income in 2007?

I'm not sure I can read this sort of thing, but what I got was Nintendo doesn't do that operating at a loss thing, not even with the GameCube, and the Wii has been very very good to them?

Did I get the main idea?

Basically the line that reads "net income" is how much actual profit they made for each year.

the line at the top that reads "revenue" is how much money was spent on Nintendo produce for the year.

they are all in millions of Yen rather than dollars though... so bare that in mind.

@saviour X
for the fiscal year 2007 Nintendo made 174,290,000,000 Yen in profit.... That is for the year ending March 2007.

If you wanted the latest number though, which is fiscal year 2008 (April 1st 2007 - March 31st 2008) then they made 257,342,000,000 Yen in profit.

In dollars I think dividing by 100 is roughly ok, so:

Year ending March 2008 ~ $2.57 billion

In the last fiscal year they had net income for US$ 2.5 billion.

BTW figures in the image are in million yen ( 257,342 in the image )

Is there any other companies that anyone knows that has never made a loss. I know Mcdonalds went for years and years without making a loss but that changed a few years back. BTW I am only talking relatively large companies not your hardware shop on the corner. Has Sony as a whole ever posted a loss? Microsoft?

Nice. :) I knew Nintendo have always been an extremely profitable company, but it's nice to see it like this. Also, funny to see how 2008 is their best year ever, and Wii hasn't even peaked yet. :p

 Sony as a whole yes definately. $2 billion lost from developing PS3 could not be made up in other sectors.
I imagine they have had loss years before too.

MS maybe very early on when they were smaller, but recently no.... considering they make $4 billion each quarter normally not even the X-box can take all that away.
