Maybe at some time in the future isn't old news. Last I hear, the PS3 losses were more than the PS2 profits and I doubt the PS3 could ever be as profitable as the PS2.


Your point is? Six years of profit is still a whole gen worth (in itself) and Sony is known for being a hotspot for late generational gamers who pick up the last versions of the console. Even Microsoft knows its profitable, which is why they are trying to do the same.

To break even, the PS3 would have to be more profitable during the tail-end of its cycle than the PS2 was during it's peak, while competing with the next gen for three years.


Sony has been breaking even on the PS3 since 2010 As I said the ten year plan will cover the cost and then some. SCEA has always planned well with the Playstation as a console when it comes to profit. I dont even know why this is a point of argument.
