Some of you need to take a corporate finance or economics course at your local colleges.
Making a profit isn't the only thing. Purely being profitable isn't any guarantee of staying in that business, or even if they should retain that portion of their business.
If there are better opportunuties at hand that will be more profitable, a business would be wise to shift its focus to that area. So you all better hope that not only does Nintendo's console business remain in the black, but that it makes a good profit that Nintendo wants to keep and can't find a better alternative to put those funds to use. I'd be worried myself, Nintendo's facing its first real competition in the handheld market where it makes the majority of its profits, is facing declining sales in the console segment, shifting those assets to protect its handheld market share just could happen.
I don't know how some of these myths start like the one about Nintendo having billions sitting around in bank accounts not doing anything. A company would be crazy to have that much captial sitting idle doing nothing when it could be put to use to increase profits.
