Wow, you're the one making you're OWN situation !! i didn't it was a reply to ur 360 making a price vut and being in a better position when we were discusiing current situation and prices Whats funny is you say they are making money now, but everything i found says they ALMOST Broke 'even' ( MEANING THEY LOST ON 43 MILLION Instead of 36 BILLION THE YEAR BEFORE ! ) 36BILLION..................................lmao there would be major consequences if they lost that amount,it was around $300m last year they are making money now on every PS3 i said but they made a loss last quarter because of some production chnages which also i said which was in MAY which is in the last quarter reported with the loss as of the PS3 unit itself,there is a profit and its so bad that you have to search info and don't follow it.if you were constantly following it then you wouldn't have to look in the most recent financial quarter. Almost broken even ( MEANS THE ENTIRE GAME DIVISON) .. SO... The division is close to breaking-even now but PS3 losses still seem large when you consider this division has the cash-cows PS2, PSP and Vaio products housed within it to equal out PS3 LOSSES !! its not broken even,its profting This article is only 4 weeks ago.. http://www.next-gen.biz/news/playstation-division-slims-q1-losses it isn't 4 weeks old. it was on 29th july when SONY reported the financials.heck i can jst pick the date as i followed it. its even given on the article itself how old it is man you are having to seach every bit of info,jst follow a bit |
| rf40928 said: I can appreciate that and I do understand this, the only point i was trying to make is I seriously doubt Sony can take this small profit per console and use it immediately for a price cut worth a damn ( as strongly implied by the other gentleman ), without putting them back into the loss per console. Thats it. |
they aren't making small profit,they were already making under $10 in Q1 2010 and then introduced 40nm RSX in MAY
a CELL 32nm is also due this fall and other die and component prices are also decreasing so it is possible.
i didn't imply anything you jst said so frankly that 360 could make a price cut when we were discusing current sales
and you never keep in mind that sometimes a little price cut now can make alot of profit in the future
PS3 was still making loss in 2007 but SONY still cut the price and increased the loss on them so that more profit could be made in the future,PS3 could have been dead by now if they wouldn't have
