numbers fighting this late in a generation is fun. market share is soooo irrelevant since 2009. It was clear there will be 2 HD consoles with more or less the same capabilities. So, nobody wants to dismiss a 60 million + market and support won't drop. That is why I didn't get the PS3 price cut. So they hit their target, but lost so much money. Especially Sony should start to look at profits rather than market share.

The cut the price by $50 and will reap the benefits with higher software sales. I doubt cutting the price that little resulted in a big loss for them, if any.

It has, they attribuited their losses ($350m) last Q to the PS3 price cut. At this point in the generation it's absurd to still be losing/break even on HW.
