Anybody care to explain:

 

"Sales decreased 12.2% year-on-year (a 15% decrease on a constant currency basis) to 707.1 billion yen (7,522
million U.S. dollars). Sales to external customers decreased 22.5% year-on-year. This significant decrease was
primarily due to a decrease in unit sales of PlayStation®3 (“PS3”) hardware and PSP® (PlayStation Portable)
(“PSP”) hardware and software, as well as PlayStation®Vita (“PS Vita”) hardware, partially offset by the favorable
impact of foreign exchange rates."

They are talking about revenue. PSP sold less HW and SW to lower revenue and PSV/Ps3 sold less HW for less revenue. Ps2 is probably selling 3.6mil and that would still lower Ps3 by 1mil
