I'd say thats a guarantee if they are close... the problem comes when they say to stockholders we met our shipping target but lost more money. Thats a wtf moment for analysts and stockholders.

I don't think so

SONY stated they don't think gaming will be profitable till 2011, shareholders know this

Just because they know it doesn't make it OK or mean that shareholders need to support it. Business does not survive on unkept promises and shareholders can be a very fickle lot.

If the PS3 fails to make a profit by the date (2011 you say), I imagine there will be quite a major upheaval.

I don't see them moving 14mil consoles this year. I still think the "slim" effect is going to wear off, especially if Sony's big release-game year is blown all during the first half. I don't think the ICO game will move consoles if it released during the holidays (as great as the game will be) as evidenced by the other 2 ICO releases. GT5 (mid summer?) will move consoles, but that effect will wear off pretty quickly.

I'll add this to my predictions in the predictions thread.
