PS devision has been profitable for years. You're trying harder already i see.

Good, good. You'll get there someday ;)

try what? get where?

PS4 has sold 1 million in a day.
Each PS4 = $400 revenue
$400x1 million= $400 million

$400 million > $250 million

Is anyone doubting 400>250?

And of course, this is a very conservative estimate. Add 60$+ to each buy and you are looking at something near half a billion dollars, double the PS2 launch.

Regarding NA's first day sales?  No.

PS2 sold 500,000 units at $299.  This accounts for $150m of its $250m total, leaving $100m generated by games and peripherals.

Since the PS4 sold twice as many consoles as the PS2, we can double the revenue for games/peripherals as well to $200m.  Now, to allow for the fact that PS4 games retail for $10 more than PS2's - and allowing for the possibility that more software was sold for the PS4 launch - let's be very generous and just add an additional $100m to that total.

That brings the games/peripheral total to $300m (which, again, is being generous) in addition to the $400m in revenue for the PS4 console itself.  An impressive number, but still far from $1b.

EDIT:  After seeing Ben's thread stating that COD, B4 and AC4 had such strong sales on PS4, my estimation of $300m for games/peripherals now seems conservative.  I stand by full category not reaching 1b though.

Congrats to Sony. PS4 launch was handled way better than the PS3 one seven years ago.
