Profit of 24.8 billion yen ($207.6 million) beat the company's forecast of 20 billion yen as well as the average estimate of 23.8 billion yen from 20 analysts polled by Thomson Reuters. Nintendo also forecast operating profit of 50 billion yen for the year started April 1. (Reporting by Ritsuko Ando; Editing by Christopher Cushing)
