Japanese video game giant Nintendo said Thursday its earnings for the year ended last week would exceed forecasts, thanks to strong sales of its game machines. The company now estimates its sales for the year to March 31 to reach 966 billion yen (8.13 billion dollars), up 66 billion yen from previous expectations.
The inventor of the Super Mario series has been immensely successful with a full range of game products. Nintendo has dominated the global market for handheld machines with its Game Boy series, followed by the introduction in 2004 of the Nintendo DS double-screened machine.
