| DirtyP2002 said: there will be a PS4, but no price-cut anytime soon. Sony has some real issues. currency is just one point, but not having a great and defining product is a bad thing.
There is canon or even casio with the cameras, there is Samsung, Philipps, Toshiba and Panasonic with the TVs, there is Microsoft and Nintendo with the gaming, there is Apple with mobile music, there is Nokia, Samsung, Apple with mobile phones etc. There is no market you immediately associate with Sony anymore. Sony had a huge growth in the 80s and they were on a lot of markets, but now, companies are focussing on the core businesses. Sony has no core business left. |
Their biggest problem has been Jack-of-all-trades in unpredictable markets but all isn't lost. Their strategy just has to change in most cases and they need to shrink in size.
It's really sad because when we talk about all these job cuts, real people with real families are losing their jobs. This is depressing.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives"---Maj. Gen. Smedley Butler
