Some of the responses in here are oh so predictable...

Take it up with Bloomberg, the quoted analysts and the finance minister of Japan if you dont likk the article. Show them where they have gone wrong. Tell the Japanese government that all is well and they can stop propping up the economy like they have for the last 20 years..... Tell Sony not to fret and that they dont need to re-organise and cut costs dramatically (this is there own stated aim)

This thread is just reporting what is happening and people are commenting. Instead of a smart reposnse how about commenting on what is a very real situation. If you have no interest in the business apsects then stay the hell out of the thread... simple.

If you arent allowed to comment on a topic unless you are an employed expert in the field then you may aswell close the forums completely.

This thread and who it is posted by is oh so predictable. I know how much you want sony to stop making hardware for some stupid childish reason, but the fact is yes they are losing ALOT money but they are never going to stop making the playstation hardware as much you hate to hear it. 

You are always the person who is posting teh sony is doomed articles, give it a rest mate. This site is about games, keep it that way. 

Seece and Kowenicki, the usual suspects, get used to it. You should have seen Seece's debut at N4G though, good times, good times.

I wouldn't worry about it though, worse comes to worse the Japanese government will bail out Sony (you know, just how the U.S. bailed out it's auto industry), they are far too vital as an economic entity to just let wither on the vine, though the short term looks grim, they are necessary in the longterm and adjustments will be made. Sony's recent loses can also be attributed to recent aquisitions and R and D costs. As for the usual Japan-hating suspects in this thread, I'd pray that the 3rd largest economy in the world doesn't implode. You think Greece is a problem? Wait til a massive economy goes down, then you'll see some chaos. Of course the powers that be in the financial world would never let Japan spiral into insolvency, there's just too much to lose to let that happen.
