here is a definition I found of operating profit:
operating profit Finance Definition
A financial measurement that is calculated by subtracting sales, general, and administrative expenses (SG&A) from gross profit. Operating profit shows how much money a company has to spend in order to sell its goods. It is an indicator of profitability.

Nintendo can make more on each unit sold just by subtracting the cost price.

that BS sorry they make way more than that.

to manufacture it should go more than 200$ and maybe 150$

Could be true with the shitty dollar and strong yen. I wouldn't call that untrue.

 This. I just can't believe they make so little now, when they have admitted to making $40-80 per console sold about a year ago.

OK, fine...!

im not buying it too.....nah $200 at launch not $180

While Microsoft and Sony have experienced losses producing their consoles in the hopes of making a long-term profit on software sales, Nintendo reportedly has optimized production costs to obtain a significant profit margin with each Wii unit sold. According to the Financial Times, this direct profit per Wii sold may vary from $13 in Japan to $49 in the United States and $79 in Europe.

Much better, you couldn't spot me a couple could you Moto?  I'm a bit short...

 =p Crap thought 12 January;

This is truly sad for a site that is supposed to be full of financial experts.  I guess that's why we are in this mess. 

This depends on exchange rates which are really volatile lately. One thing's for sure, those exchange rates are killing the profit margins even for Nintendo.
