I don't see Sony dropping prices until next summer. They simply aren't in the financial situation that will allow them to do it. So I think 30M sales at the end of next year would be nearly impossible. My last point, Sony is in this to MAKE money not to simply break even. They have lost billions of dollars on the PS3 and another year of loss will just add to the overall problem they have. Profitability is the only answer, not a price cut. A 500M loss is not something that will be easily overcome and Execs have share holders that they have to account to. |
Uh.... normal developing time first off. Secondly of course spending money on games effect profits.... but so does a game not being good and not selling. Third - those are already report in finacials.
