(Erm... you realise the "era" of PS2 made Sony over $2.3 billion... and that includes losses from PSP,... (although it also includes some PS1 profits)... My bet is when PS2 is done selling, if we could seperate it out it would have made between 3.5 and 4 billion $.

The PS3 meanwhile (if we could seperate) has lost over 4 billion already, probably nearer 5

 

What what what?????? 

$2.3 billion ??????

But where you read these numbers??????

The real profits of Sony with Playstation family (PS1 + PS2 + PS3 + PSP) are $23 Billion!!!  NO $2.3 billion!!!!!

The next year Sony has already recovered initial losses of $3.36 billion, for the choice to win the format war,

inserting Blu-Ray inside PS3.

 

 

Someone compiled earnings from each company's fiscal reports, although  MS & Sony are operating profits  whereas Nintendo is net income.

Corporate fiscal reports don't lie.

Look, Fishy, if I wanted numbers to back up points, I would be on a website devoted to sales or something.  Since that's obviously not the case, how about you take your 'facts' and leave this thread in peace?
