Am a bit confused here. Not for one minute claiming to be a finance expert but didn't the PS3 recently receive a price drop? I thought at the time that it seemed like financial suicide, given that at the time Nintendo were reporting massive losses due to the strong yen. Surely the self same problem that would make the price cut a risky move? Is it all divisions of Sony that are reporting a loss? Due to the reasons i mentioned earlier i wouldn't be surprised if the gaming/playstation division were losing money but i would expect a strong yen to affect all of Sony's many divisions.

Speaking competely unbiasedly, i would have to say that given my ignorance of most things Sony, (again, i'm no expert) i'm of the impression that Playstation is one of Sony's most profitable divisions. So just to put some context to this discussion, from an outsiders' (ie, me) point of view i'd say the gaming division is going nowhere. I feel that Sony would let practically the whole of the rest of the Sony empire fall before relinquishing its grip on the Playstation brand.

Just my view.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!
