Nintendo profits boosted by Wii
"Japanese game firm Nintendo has seen its quarterly profits soar thanks to the popularity of its Wii game console.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6914955.stm
Nintendo's net profits hit 80.25bn yen ($667m; £323.9m) in the three months to June, up from 15.55bn yen in the same period a year earlier."
I would add that I assume strong DS sales are also contributing, but I think it's all good news, a strong Nintendo will I think lead to more and better games for the Wii in the long term. It is no longer a platform publishers can ignore, which the GameCube effectively became.
