NJ5 on 25 April 2009

It's hard to predict individual divisions, with that said:
Holiday quarter 2007: $132m profit (by today's exchange rate, keeping this simple)
Jan-Mar quarter 2008: $118m loss
Holiday quarter 2008: $4m profit
So what changed from Jan-Mar last year?
On the positive side, PS3 software sales improved and hardware cost decreased. On the negative side, exchange rates are worse, and PS2 / PSP HW/SW sales are worse as well.
I wouldn't be surprised if these factors cancel each other and the loss is as big as last year (around $100m-$200m). Perhaps a bit more since holiday 2007 was better than this one. It's just a rough guess though.
