Yeah like outselling the competitors by 100,000 to 400,000 consoles each and every week doesn't mean anything when Sony's doing it.
If they're in such dire shape as you and the others like you point out, why don't they just say they're going out of business tomorrow and be done with the whole thing without going through the whole process of releasing a console that's beneath them?
And you use Nintendo as an example; however, Nintendo got the stuffing beat out of them two gens in a row not one like Sony ( and considering the fact that Playstation 3 is the best selling console out of the 3 for the last two years of the gen and beating the other consoles soundly every week now) why wouldn't they be interested in following a similar path next time?

If Sony follows the same business model as they did with PS3, losing over 4.5 billion $, they will be bankrupt within 2 years.
|
So, if Sony releases a console that's outselling the competitors every week week at the end of next gen, they'll be bankrupt? That doesn't make much sense.
|
You're ignoring the billions Sony lost during the first half of the gen. Sony hasn't recovered from that (and probably never will).
|
But they're number 1 now. Don't you think MS and Nintendo would like to switch places?
|
Business wise it doesn't matter how many consoles you sell, if you aren't making profit out of it (or even break even) the console is a failure.
