Via, oh let’s go with EDGE today since it kept things short and sweet without any fluff about about how “DA SONY MOVE’S GONNA EAT THEIR LUNCH” like most mainstream news outlets today have written about this news.

But anyway yeah via Edge today Nintendo announced that it’s annual profits for the financial year ending March 31, 2010 were down 18% from last year, with sales down 22 percent to $15.3 billion, operating income down 36% at $3.8 billion, and net profit down 18% coming to a total $2 billion dollars left to add to the war chest.

Nintendo expects Wii sales (now at 70 million sold worldwide) to fall to 18 million units sold in the coming year as opposed to the 20 million sold last year and 30 million DS sales (now at 128 million units sold when you combine the entire DS family) as opposed to 27 million DS units last year.

The increase in DS sales is most likely including the 3DS into the equation. Anyway a few final notes taken from Nintendo’s own PDF of the Report; Wii Sports Resort sold 16 million units, NSMBW sold 14 million units last year and Wii Fit Plus managed around 12 million units. – The Ben
