Isn't up to date but you get the gist of it.

 

If your math is right the playstation brand is still almost 2 billion dollars total profit. Thats not great? And Now they make money on every PS3 sold. No doubt they made some mistakes. But to say they are dead? Granted they did use up over 3 billion dollars the first 2 years.But hey look already 51 million for 2009. You proved my point. They wont die.

 

So basically you're saying that less than $200 million a year in which period they had the best sold console ever AND the final years of the 2nd best sold console ever is good? Sorry, but that's pretty terrible.

And it's Finacial Years, so the 51 million is for March 31st 2008 until December 31st 2008.

But indeed, obviously Sony won't die and it's pretty clear that SCE won't either, as they seem to be on track to be profitable this FY and if they keep their strategy of profit, not marketshare they should be fine.
