☆ NintendObs Event – Nintendo Q1 FY3/2015.
During the three months ended June 30, 2014, for “Nintendo 3DS (3DS, 3DS XL and 2DS),” titles such as “Kirby: Triple Deluxe” and “Tomodachi Life,” released in May and June respectively in the United States and Europe, gained wide popularity. As a consequence, the global sales of the “Nintendo 3DS” hardware and software reached 0.82 million units and 8.57 million units respectively.
With respect to “Wii U,” “Mario Kart 8,” released globally in May, marked 2.82 million units in sales. The worldwide sales of the “Wii U” hardware and software were 0.51 million units and 4.39 units respectively mainly due to a lack of other hit titles this quarter.
Net sales as a result were 74.6 billion yen (of which overseas sales were 58.0 billion yen or 77.7% of the total sales), and gross profit was 32.5 billion yen. The operating loss was 9.4 billion yen because total selling, general and administrative expenses including fixed expenses exceeded gross profit. Ordinary loss was 9.9 billion yen and net loss was 9.9 billion yen.
