Sony must focus on selling buildings. That's how they make profits.

Well, don't worry, his little bro Nintendo posted losses and Iwata is almost paying for working there.


Nintendo has the largest gaming division and the most money, did you mean big bro?

They were always in trouble and I am glad to see them making the hard cuts they need right now.

Even if Sony go bankrupt someone will buy the PlayStation brand given how successful it still is.



This is the Game of Thrones

Where you either win

or you DIE

good until the company starts making money they really shouldnt get paid what they do

But will it be the same?

Really depends how the brand reputation is at the time, if ever, that happens and who buys them out.

It will no longer go buy the name ♣Sony♣ Playstaion though.  That's of course if that was to happen.

We are talking two different things.  You're talking Sony as a whole and I'm talking game division.  "Yawn"

Iwata took a 50% pay cut recently and Nintendo isn't in "going bust" levels of trouble - I'm not sure if it is as big a deal for a Japanese CEO to take a significant pay cut as it might be for an American one


That's because an American CEO would simply fire a bunch of employees and cut benefits for the rest. It's a greed vs honour thing

Except they have been laying off quite a number of employes before this happened.

I remember the 10,000 that were layed off in 2012.

286 were layed off from shutting down a HQ in California as well as some Sony Interactive peeps 2 months ago.

1,000 are planned to be layed off by the end of this year in the US from the closing of 20 Sony Electronic stores.

Another 5,000 in this year from thier exit from the PC industry and rearrangement of the TV divison.
