The fact MS has money won't magically put the 360 back on top. Now if MS stopped funding timed exclusives which go to PS3 six months after (GTA DLC) and if they opened studios and made exclusive games with their money, now yeah, their money would help. |
MS results are important. It proves that they could cut the price if they so choose, if market share is what they desired. So you can see any losses in market share in that context. They can either profit or improve market position with price cuts.
$375M / 7M consoles is $53. They could have cut $50 off across the board and likely still made a marginal profit.
Do you know what its like to live on the far side of Uranus?
