Plus, games sales don't mean Auto profit. If they hired too many developers, got too many development kits, advertized the games too hard, released too many units, plublished the wrong games and let others plublish the right games... I can see how a 3rd party could fall into debt.

As a 2nd/1st party, these expensesare taken care of by the console manufacture... meaning the only way for them to lose money is if the Manufacture bails out of the console wars (Sega)
The bad investments makes total sense.

I wasn't actually sure about the profits thing though, I was just reffering to Strangler's statement:

but I don't think it made much of a profit
So if it did make profit, which I do 'think' it did, then there's nothing bad about that . I don't think they were expecting it to be a million seller in either Japan or the USA, as they shipped well below that amount. But do think it will break a million eventually worldwide, which is always a good thing.

Anyways, is there anyway we could find out what Capcom have invested in?
