Man you sure know how to make some special threads...

Actually I want to smoke what you are smoking when you made this thread.

Sony lost about 25 million dollars selling these PS3s today. They still take about a 50 dollar loss on each system sold and have lost billions thus far. Ken may have hit a home run with a ps1 and ps2...but he screwed up so badly commercially with PS3 that he should not be allowed near a console ever again. Sony wendt from console dominance to fighting for second position and being dead last in console profits despite having 2 proffitable consoles on the market...

You do know both PS1 and PS2 sold for a loss right? PS1 took 2 years before seeing profits, and PS2 took nearly 3.

 

Sony lost billions on those 2, then recouped when they became popular and started selling at a profit.

 

Oh yeah PS1 and PS2 didn't sell well at first, till massive price drops as well. See a trend? PS3 is a little behind that trend, but still following it.

Yes...they are following $300 of bleeding price cuts per system. If Sony took $300 off of the predecessor systems they would've  been free half way through their existence.
