Regardless of what Iwata says, It is Microsoft who can not compete according to Sean Malstrom.

Why are people obsessed with MS making a loss on Xbox over 6+ years ago??? It's dumb. Pure and simple. The division has been profiting for the last 6 years. So what's more important? it's a sunk cost and means jack.

It's actually pretty important. Let's say they continue this trend of losing money on their Xbox division; it's far more likely that investors will want to close that division then. As I understand it, the Xbox brand as a whole have lost more money than MS has earned (I could be wrong, but that's what I keep hearing) in the long run, and that can not continue.

I think that's why ppl keeps bringing it up; losing money is never a good thing. They're fine today, but how about tomorrow?

Did you read what I wrote though? MS has been profiting on the xbox for the last 6 years.
