Nintendo makes money….yawn
That prints money image will never be put to rest. Month after month Nintendo rakes in the money and at this point I’m beginning to think they’re getting tired of it. Just kidding… who hates making money?
Nintendo reported their earnings for the fiscal year, which ended March 31st of this year. Here are the numbers: They’ve shipped 16.81 million Wii’s around the world, totaling 24.45 million since its launch in 2006. The DS shipped an amazing 30.31 million units worldwide, bringing the total to 70.6 million since its debut. Software wise, the Wii and DS have shipped 119.6 million and 185.62 million, respectively. All of this contributing to a 73% increase in sales to 1.67 trillion yen or 16.07 billion American dollars. Boy would I love a slice of that.
