Nintendo Co., the Japanese company that makes Super Mario and other video games, said it earned $95 million in its fiscal first quarter on strong sales of its Game Boy hand-held machine.

This is the first time the company has reported first-quarter earnings, and it did not disclose comparable earnings numbers for the April-June period last year. Sales were up 5% at $695 million from a year earlier, the company said.
