I never said that they never reported a loss but that they have been around for over 100 years and are in a very dark place right now. Other Japanese companies are making money right now and they are subject to the same yen changes. Nintendo can't blame the yen for their crap product line when their business is struggling (I never noticed Nintendo citing the weak yen several years ago for their success). Year one price cuts and terrible system sales (for the 3DS) are not the hallmark of a healthy company. When the Wii U has the same problems as the 3DS (and it will) Nintendo is going to start to have have some serious business sustainability issues. I love Nintendo and they have a very important place in my heart but I fear that they are losing their lifelong fans (like myself) fast.
