Furthermore, judging from Sony's Q3 quarter, the gaming division of Sony posted a net profit of 6 million US. Sony will most likely post a loss this quarter due to the recent price reduction of the VITA. As a result, Sony needs a new strategy in order to remain 'relevant', profitable and an industry leader.

Whee did you get these numbers?

Sony posted 46 million dollars profit for Game Division in Q3 2012... for the FY2012 is accumulated in 510 million dollars.

Why Sony you post loss in this quarter? And for the FY?

I apologize my mistake. I misread the numbers. 46 million in operational income.

Sony should post an operating loss due to Vita price cut this quarter I believe; however, they should post a profit nonetheless (net income) due to currency gains.
