I'm surprised they don't mention anything about Type-0.

A bunch of factors have led them to this. Final Fantasy XI subs. Final Fantasy XIV is still bleeding some cash on their route to 2.0 but they do have around 15-20k subs for the game now that they are charging. Also Final Fantasy XIII-2. Despite criticism over their "decisions" when it comes to games from people, they are a very smart company financially.

yeah, even when FF14, had a disastrous launch. Didn't they only lose 60 million? maybe it was more. But imagine if EA had a disastrous launch with the old republic. They had a good launch and that company still lost 200 million.

Despite FFXIV being a flop, I'm surprised their in the positive. KH3D and THEARhythm will sell well. Army Corp of Hell and FFXIII-2 will sell moderately.
