From here, you can see that resellers can make up to 5 percent profit on hardware sales, but up to 25 percent on games. In addition, Nintendo is introducing a new business policy: it wants to see a profit from every system sold, so it doesn’t just benefit like the console companies usually do, who sell the hardware at a loss and sell the software at a huge profit margin.
