You just marvelously dodged all of the real points I spent a good chunk of last night typing, and went for the little notice at the end that I "didn't want to touch with a ten foot stick". Ok, I'll use a twenty foot stick. =P
Sony has a chance of leaving the console business if, and only if, they decide the PS3 has failed. You didn't contest any of my points regarding this, so I'm assuming you agree with me. If that still very unlikely scenario takes place, they'll decide if they want to make a new home console, handheld, both, or neither.
As I said, this depends on a crapload of things we simply don't know. How is Sony going to be doing financially? Every second person I talk to tells me they're doing great, and every second one tells me their almost bankrupt. How much of the Playstation brand name is left? It's still relatively strong, but would get some serious tarnish if the PS3 ended up dying early. What will the people at the top of Sony feel about their fallen starchild? I don't even know who they are, and neither do you so don't try to pretend. =P
Btw, and Sony has made quite a few more than mistakes by my reckoning. IMO they've messed things up worse than Sega, but they have a stronger financial backbone to survive for the time being.
Btwbtw, why are you quoting Kutaragi for anything? I mean seriously, he's the worst liar in the history of the video game industry. Not trying to troll here, but his record is pretty unbeatable.
