If Sony left the gaming hardware business, there really wouldn't be much of a loss. This will probably be the last pure gaming console from them(or M$ or Nintendo) anyway. With all of the game development that they do, it would just move to another format. So, no net loss. Most of the loss would be from people taking a personal interest in a company that has been milking them for $$$ just like everyone else. When Sony or M$ or Nintendo start paying me to play, then i will care whether they are in the business. Hardware manufacturers come and go. Remember, it's the games that count.


Sony makes more IP's than they milk in a given generation. Give credit where its due. I play less Nintendo than I should but this gen I feel I would be saddened because Nintendo would lose their direct competition and probably tone it down a little. Thats the thing about competition. 

I was very clear that if they left the hardware business, i wouldn't care.  Of course we still want their games!  Originally, all game systems were only sold to make sure that there was something for their games to be played on.  Nowadays, that is no longer the case.  We don't need one particular console to get that.
