- Read from the 'equity-method investment income' line of Nintendo's earnings release for the year to March 2021.
What we assumed
Nothing. The figure is used as published.
Sanity check
Down from ¥7.9bn the year before, the low point before the card boom. Covers all Nintendo's affiliates, not The Pokémon Company alone, and it is a share of profit booked, not cash received.
