I'm not sure where you're getting that Nintendo sells at a loss. They don't have amazing margins on hardware, but they don't like selling at a loss. IIRC, commodity prices and a price drop meant the GameCube was briefly sold at a loss, but it wasn't long, and it wasn't by much.

Whatever else you can say about Nintendo, they are really good at managing manufacturing costs.
