I expected way more than that. I bet Sony won't make the profits they were predicting. Actually, I thing they will be losing money next year as well. Especially if the PS4 is a powerful machine |
and it's the fans who always want to find good news in bad news
stay classy Chartz

Well, could you please explain me where the good news has been for Sony in the past week?
I am not the only one who expected way more than that. Look at all the reactions from the analysts.

"Actually, I thing they will be losing money next year as well. Especially if the PS4 is a powerful machine"
translation, Screw Sony, me the armchair analyst forum dweller knows more than them, they'll be losing money regardless of what they say
because you know more than Kaz, oh do outline how they'll be losing money and especially if the ps4 is a powerful machine, I mean ignoring the fact that the Vita is a powerful machine and isn't lost money, and their plans to cut cost and streamline their business.

Correct me if I'm wrong put don't they take a small loss on each Vita sold?
|
It actually doesnt matter... the point is that just because a device makes a small profit at retail doesnt mean it is a profitable device.
If it costs me $1bn to develop a device and I sell each completed device for a $10 profit.... It will take a while for it to have been a worthwhile venture. This is the PS3 problem... it will possibly never turn a profit even though they make a healthy profit on each one they sell now.

'it will possibly never turn a profit'
Practically a dead cert it won't make a profit, it was highlighted that the PS3 strategic price cut last August affected profits in that division, so at most they've been making small bank on every PS3 sold since it started profiting, but think of the 5B+ it lost in the early days.
