Nintendo made a loss of 37.3bn Yen which is around $459 million, although they are predicting a profit for 2013, and the loss is attributed to their new Nintendo 3DS console.
According to a recent report, the Nintendo have been selling the 3DS console at a loss, they managed to sell 13.53 million 3DS units and 36 million 3DS games, they also released some details on other device sales.
Nintendo sold a total of 9.4 million Wii consoles and a total of 102.37 million Wii games, although the device is now selling for less than before and this also apparently contributed to the loss.
