I think Sony is counting on subscriptions and SW sales to off set the costs of the consoles... At a $349 price point the PS4 would be extremely competitive; they got some really good 1st party games (but they ain't got nothing on Nintendo in that aspect), but they'd also enjoy all 3rd party multiplats - something Wii U probably won't. Buy 3 games for the PS4 will make it profitable/break even.

Did you heard that game development has its own costs? So to offset 150$ losses Sony will need to sell not 3 but i think around 10 games for each console sold... Are you seriosely expect do get such an attach rate in 3 months after PS4 launch?

And also on the 3rd party multiplats. I'm not bothering on the 2013-14  year multi - most of it will be on a WiiU (except for some stupid desisions from EA like on their sports games). Later WiiU may lose multi plats, but not in the first wave of 'nextgen' games...
