Well one can make educated guesses based on previous facts.
Sony admitted to burn through all profits made by PS2 and sold PS3 at a tremendous loss for years.
Only since 2010 has there been any evidence at all that the division is back to profitability.
However, the high yen equates to almost all NA/European PS3 sales coming back to Japan with less revenue, plus they put themselves back in the red with the $50 price cut, judging by the Q2 2011 report.
Best case scenario is that the PS brand by itself is only bleeding a little money.
Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
