anyways unlike nintendo, video games are only a small part of sony so they can afford to make losses on the ps3 which they will get back in long term sales because unlike the wii, ps3 will be selling 5 years from now. and dont forget to add all the money the make from selling games like calll of duty, GTA and other 3rd party games which wii misses out on. yes sony had a rough time but have you seen nintendos recent profit/loss? imo its better to start of bad and grow rather than market the hell out of a product then let it die early. looking at the rumors of wii2, they still dont seem to have learnt their lesson then their fans blame 3rd party devs when they simply dont have sufficient hardware to work on. |
Even if the PS3 is on the market for 15 years it probably won't make even half as much profit as the Wii...
So I ask you a question is it better to:
A: Make $5B in 5 years and nothing after that?
B: Lose $6B in 3 years then make another $12B over the following 9 years?
Tease.
