Fire Up the Yoshi Train – Nintendo Revenue Hits $18.5 Billion
Dang, that’s a lot of gold coins to collect!
Mario maker banks $2.83 billion in net income, $6 billion operating profit; 26 million Wiis, 31 million DSs, 16 million Wii Fits sold during last fiscal year.
What’s even more amazing is that given the worldwide shortage of Wii’s, they probably could have sold twice what they did. Amazing that an array of such underpowered gaming platforms have been so successful. Just goes to show you that the casual gamer is here to stay!







Casual gamers unite!
You can pry my Wiimote out of my cold, dead hands.. and even then you’d still have to contend with the wrist strap!
HAHA!
I know what you mean! The thing is like crack. Oddly enough, my fav is still WiiSports…
We’re definitely still digging WiiSports!
I’m determined to someday make pro at every event!
this is really a great site. i’m going to show this to my family.
