@PizzaFaceGamer, 6 bln. $? Give me a link.

Also, because Sony is losing money on PS3, it should sell less in Japan? Where is a logic?

Again, PS3 is not going to stop selling. It`s going to make money since next year. So, that loss is going to decrease. GT5 and GT6 will alone bring probably... i don`t know. But a lot(500 mln.- 1 bln. $?).

When you consider the ps2 and psp were profitable sony was still reporting billion dollar losses which means the ps3 wasted all the ps2 and psp profits as well.  The REAL LOSS of the ps3 is probably 5.5-6 billion dollars - NOT SMART!

Also,  looking at the chart on the link.  Sony has lost more $$$$$$ on the ps3 than they ever made on ps1 and ps2 - NOT SMART

http://www.joystiq.com/2008/08/19/the-sony-reciprocal-ps3-losses-surpass-ps2-profits/

1 product (ps3) = entire history of gaming profits erased in just 3 years.

PS - Sony said ps3 was going to be profitable last year AND the year before as well.....sony's PR is like a broken untruthful record.

That`s not a fact. Just your imagination. Again.

It`s 4.7 bln. $ loss since PS3 launch.

Total Sony Nintendo Microsoft
     $264,220,482  $21,984,600,371   -$6,532,000,000

That`s a LIE. Sony still in profit with total numbers.

1) Now, you are going to answer me, how much will Sony make on PS3(gaming division) in next 5 years?

2) Also, if i remeber correct, since FY10, those numbers contain not only gaming division but also some other. Same goes for Microsoft, which include Zune and other stuff.

To answer your question - sony won't make any profit in the next 5 years on the ps3.  A few hundred million at most.

You are having problems understanding REPORTED LOSSES vs REAL LOSSES.

1. PS3 has NEVER made 1 yen of profit. 

2. PS2 and PSP have been profitable since 2006.

3. Sony has lost 4.7 billon since 2006 - REPORTED ENTIRE GAME DIVISION LOSS -

Which means, the ps3 lost MORE than 4.7 billion because the PS2 and psp were profitable - The ps3 NEGATED psp AND ps2 profits.  Therefore, the REAL LOSS of the ps3 is MUCH HIGHER than the reported 4.7 billion.

We will never know for sure because sony doesn't want their investors to know what a money blackhole boondoggle the ps3 has become.

Take off your sony love blinders for a sec and analyze this logically.

Peace
