So the amount they loose on the hardware must not be very much if they are making a profit on the entire PlayStation Brand. Well at least that Sony shareholder on here cant bitch anymore since Sony is now making a profit from its games division. |
Really?
Losses on PS3 hardware verses...
- Profit on PS3 games
- Profit on PS3 peripherals
- Profit on PSP hardware(maybe...)
- Profit on PSP games
- Profit on PSP peripherals
- Profit on PS2 hardware
- Profit on PS2 games
- Profit on PS2 periperals
hmm...

fixed. Ps2 doesnt sell nearly as much games since there is a huge used market for it. Also with periphrials. How come psp sw is all of a sudden profitable? i thought general thought on this matter was piracy kills profits. And you really don't know what Psp sells for. I find it hard to believe it will cost less than 135 to make one of those things. Also, with ps2 price cut I don't see them making more than 10 dollars per unit sold.

We know that Sony is already making profit on their PSP-3000 models. We also know that the PSPgo will be cheaper to make then the PSP 3000 but will sell for more. While piracy does kill the numbers on PSP games a lot of the more high-profile ones do sell quite a bit and do make Sony some money. Not sure if its enough to call them profitable in that area though.

Yeah, I had a memory relapse with the PSP I thought it sold for 150 but then remembered it was 170. And you have no clue that it will be cheaper to make PSP GO! ...it actually very well be more expensive and less profitable for Sony on the HW front. Which, that doesn't matter since it is just causing sony losses right now since it is in production but not bringing in revenue.

Well I remember hearing during one of Gametrailers Bonus Round that since Sony is getting rid of the UMD drive and Format, Included a smaller screen and overall system that it turns out to be cheaper to make. Now Im not sure how true this is since it came out of Patcher's mouth but the other people on Bonus Round seem to agree with him in that aspect. Just something to take into consideration really

"In video game terms, RPGs are games that involve a form of separate battles taking place with a specialized battle system and the use of a system that increases your power through a form of points.
Sure, what you say is the definition, but the connotation of RPGs is what they are in video games." - dtewi
