1. I meant SCE yes, but they are now merged with two other sections
2. Yes, it is all an estimation. Sony ahs been cash crunched and there have been a lot of questions like, "where is sony's marketing", "where are the RPGs", "where are the new exclusives". Those questions exist because of the crunch.
In the past few months I have noticed a turnaround in all three of those. I've seen increased 3rd party support, more JRPG support, and lots of commercials. This can only mean that SCE has a lot more money to work with. They will spend this money because they are all investments which return.
As per "plunging back into the red", It's possible that this investment that I just spoke of might not have paid off yet and that it is a longer term approach to make more money in the future.
In short, yes this is all estimation. But let's look at the big picture. Why has there been a deluge of exclusive new IPs in JRPG and other genres? Why are there more commercials? These are both large expenditures that they didn't have money for before.
I drew logical conclusions based on the evidence available. They may be correct or incorrect conclusions, but they do follow.
