Sony as a whole lost 5.5 Billion, if I remember correctly.

Still... Thats bad. PS4 R&D? And Vita R&D too?

I also think they are losing money on some software studios.. a few of them have produced games with medicore sales

Most should be profitable, the cost to make a game is about 15 million for a normal game and about 50 million for a really high production game. So even if it cost them 50 million which is high balling it for all there games, out of the $60 for the game I think Sony get's around $20, in order to break even they would have to sell about 2.5 million copies of a game which most Sony exclusive manage to exceed (especially the big game), again that's high balling it most games are around $15 maybe $20 million to make which is around 850K copies of a game sold. 

To make a loss that big I doubt the Studios had anything to do with it.
