Its final results for 2014 (technically April 1st 2014 to March 31st 2015) reveal a $207 million operating profit on $4.6 billion in revenue. That's nothing to write home about, and way lower than initially expected, but still represents a dramatic improvement from previous years' consecutive losses. The past three months have actually seen a pretty heavy negative swing for Nintendo, with the international launch of new-and-improved 3DS models (http://www.engadget.com/2014/10/29/nintendo-3ds-review-new-3ds/)failing to make much of an impact, and the Wii U continuing to languish in 3rd place behind the PS4 and the Xbox One.
