The 360 is only outselling the PS3 by 20-30K a week despite being half or even under half the price. So there's not much to panic about there, Sony shouldn't cut the PS3's price until Q4. As for the PSP, they should announce a new model and get some new big games on it as quickly as possible. Giving GT PSP a release date would be a good start. Maybe a price cut too so it can do well outside of Japan. That's all I can really think of.

 

The Xbox360 is profitable, the PS3 not. The last red numbers for the EAD was because of R&D for Zune HD / Windows Mobile and low sales for Mac Office Software. I am pretty sure Gaming-division at Sony will post red numbers. I mean Nintendo reported a 42% decreased profit for this quarter from last year with the highly successful Wii and DS. I doubt Sony will post black numbers with the not successful PSP and PS3. But that is speculation at this point.

And I doubt software-sales for any PSP game outside Japan will have great sales. Piracy kills it. Don't know why there is less piracy in Japan though.

And please do not act like every Xbox360 is half the price of the PS3. You and I know that is not the case.

I feel this anticipation, and the belief that it will not be corrected in the near term is the reason for the moving of sonys gaming arm into another division, similar to what MS does so that it can avoid stock holder scrutiny.  this will allow them to move it into the negative with a price cut if they feel they need to.   I wish they would not do this and that MS would move the gaming group out but sadly I am not paid to make these decisions
