The losses in Sony's gaming unit must come from somewhere and the PSV is the most logical culprit. If you insist that the Vita is making a profit, you need to explain these losses somehow. There can't be four profitable systems in the gaming unit, yet overall a loss is posted.

Their expenses are more than just hardware and assembly for the consoles. They also pay people for marketing, accounting, legal, game development, supporting external game developers, developing new hardware and maintaining online. Any or all of those areas could be loss-making.

When we say hardware is profitable, surely it's sale price minus wholesale parts minus assembly and shipping costs. That doesn't preclude it making a loss as a business.

but you're Rol, so I suspect you know all that and I'm being trolled here.
