YEs I have NO IDEA how PS3 sales went UP

even though JAPAN sales FELL by 12K!

I think it's anticipation of a great holiday and word spreading that the PS3 is no longer doomed.

ps3 is still doomed until it makes profit...sure, Sony has a lot of money, but they need to find a way to have profits from SCE...and with the price cut and a not so great software boost i'm not sure that "the brand is profitable" like Kaz said...

PlayStation brand is everything tied with PlayStation.

Games, PSP, PSP Go, PS2 etc.

Don't even bother trying to explain it to him. It's been done before.

Best thing to do is just ignore him.

You can explain what you want, they didn't had a profit last quarter and likely not even this quarter...ok, it's not doomed, but it's in trouble: sony can leave without their games sector and this is a problem because they need to show that that sector is useful (sales, profit and other minor things...).

Oh man... so what position do you have in the sony financial section? Tell me something... is Sony going to make a Ps9 like the ads around the internet say?

I can just speak about the official numbers...i have not Sony's mind, i can't tell you if for them are more important sales or profits...i was just speaking about my point of view but hey, if they are right like this i'm happy for you and for them! Please don't think i'm attacking sony, i just thought they care of profit and by Kaz's last statement they're not sure about making it this quarter (because ps3 hardware is still sold at a little loss).

ok? :)

The idea behind Sony relying on software to drive the PS3's sales is based on them losing probably $20 (I forgot the real figure that was thrown about a while ago). If somebody buys another controller, they have probably broken even. I'm not sure exactly how Sony are working, but we'll see when they post their report at the end of the quarter. I could be wrong, but I don't think it's as doom and gloom as a lot of people seemed to be thinking it was.

Ok, i understand that only internal members can say if there will be or not a profit for SCE this quarter.

Now don't ignore me ^__^
