For those interested, I made some rough estimations of what each of the 4 PS consoles has made throughout it's life.
In this thread:
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=72293&page=1

PS1 - made in excess of $5 billion profit.

PS2 - has made about $3 billion (and counting, albeit slowly counting now)

PSP - was in the red, but I am certain it has at least broken even, and has probably made a few hundred million (and counting... probably counting faster than PS2 now as well)

PS3 - has lost in excess of $6 billion.

 

so since 1996 only $2 billion?

It's less than that actually.... it's about $1.6-1.7 billion, I did say in excess for PS1 and PS3 figures.... I think PS1 is pretty close to $5 billion, wheras PS3 has lost more like $6.5 billion.

I just PMed LiquidNinja about updating his thread:
http://www.vgchartz.com/forum/thread.php?id=57802

That has the sum profit of the PS division at $2.26 billion, but only goes to March 2008.... this last year saw a further $600 million lost for SCE.
