Wii already making money

According to a recent interview with Nintendo of Canada's executive Pierre-Paul Trépanier, Nintendo is already raking in cash from the Wii. They are making money on every system sold, unlike their competitors.

What a novel business scheme... earn money on products sold. Interesting.

I'll just recap my highlight of the interview.

"We make a profit on the system itself," Trépanier said. "Unlike our competitors, we don’t have ulterior motives; we’re not in it to sell HD TVs, or to become the operating system in the living room or anything like that."

Snap Sony and Microsoft. Thanks Nintendo for just trying to sell me a gaming console, that's all I wanted.
