| DirtyP2002 said: With PS2 being profitable (obvious) and PS3 making a profit / unit as well, how can they only make a 80 million USD profit? I mean they sold 6 million profitable consoles and had good software sales as well. With the money earned with Vaio, the gaming stuff is probably running even or make a small loss. Vaio sales were strong in the last Q. Doubt it suddenly stopped for the next 3 months. Xbox 360 sold 2.8 million and had loss-makers like Zune, WinMo and surface in that division, still they made a profit of almost 400 million. Serious question. Anyway gratz Sony. |
I would guess it's got a lot to do with exchange rates given the relative strengths of the dollar and yen. Also, I would guess that Sony has more expenses for upcoming games releases for their internal studios.
