Really what was Sony's plan with the PS3.

Right now the PS3 still isnt profitable, hardware is still so costly that this past holiday quarter with everything profitable in the games division (PS2, PS2 Software, PSP, PSP Software, PS2 Software), but the PS3 hardware, the division posted a 4 million dollar profit. 

Nintendo and Microsoft certainly plan 2011 or 2012 (my bet) launches of new consoles. 

So when and how did Sony ever plan for the PS3 to be profitable? Was the plan that they wouldnt drop the launch price until say end of this year?

 

IMO, they didn't plan to have such production problems that resulted in a 600 €/$ price.

The rest of the problems could have been avoided with enough cash in bank to overcome it ...

Microsoft does a better job with the 360 but the problems of Sony make it easier.



 

Evan Wells (Uncharted 2): I think the differences that you see between any two games has much more to do with the developer than whether it’s on the Xbox or PS3.
