What id like to know is how profitable Sony's gaming division rly is? I keep seeing comments that Sony would never drop theyr gaming division cause it is one of theyr most profitable division... I am not denying that but id like to know if anyone has numbers.

Im asking this because we know that Sony as a whole is losing billions but I dont think they released numbers for each of theyr divisions.

-PS3 was sold at a loss for a while, they loss alot of money because of this.
-Vita is being sold at a loss.
-Most of theyr first party exclusives are not selling so well. And since Sony are the ones developing it it cost them money and idk how many games they need to make a profit but I wouldnt be surprised if some of their games ended up being a loss of money for sony.
-PSN is free for users so idk how much $ it is milking every year to keep it running, im guessing probably alot.
-Add to this all the R&D for all that is hardware/software.

My guess would be that Sony's gaming division is no where near as profitable as most ppl would think... But this is just my guess so id rly appreciate if someone who has more knowledge on this could answer me.
