http://www.sonet.co.uk/SonyInfo/IR/financial/ar/Archive.html Sony Annual Reports Game Operating Income 2006 8.7 PS1 era (1996-2000) made 383B yen. PS2 era (2001-2006) made 264B yen. PS2 *was* (and still is) profitable, but not as much as the PS1. Sony sold PS2 for too little to make as much as the PS1, before the next gen. box came along. For Fiscal Year 2007 and 2008 Q2 (96.7) 2007 (232.3) So far the PS3 era (2007-now) has lost (358B yen). So, they have now lost all they made on the PS2 (including what PS2 made the last year and a half), and are working on losing the PS1 profits as well. Still all together for the last 12.5 years, Sony is up 289B Yen . At 115 yen/$ = $2.5B. |
How can anyone honestly look at this and say they are gonna make a net profit. It's beyond the realm of possibility, it's impossible. From 2001-2006 Sony made 236 billion yen on the most dominant system of all time, they've currently lost 358 billion on the PS3. Someone explain to me how they are gonna make all that money up? That 358 billion yen in losses doesn't even include how the PS2 and PSP sales were offsetting it the whole time. Get off the crack and just admit it.
