For the whole past fiscal year (April 07 - March 08), they had $4.7 billion in operating income and $2.5 billion in net income.

Therefore, in a single non-holiday quarter, they just made almost half the net income of a whole fiscal year!

I blame Wii Fit haha. Nah more like I thank Wii Fit haha.

But man software on Wii is what is the most surprising. I mean geez that's a lot. But MKWii, Wii Fit, and Brawl releasing is pretty huge haha.

But as someone else said wonder what thye going to do with all this money haha.
