You're wrong - those aren't just the gaming division numbers.

 

You are wrong, yes it is.

 

So I went ahead and got all of the numbers from the site you referenced and your original post is completely wrong.  They have definitely not lost more on the PS3 than they gained on the PS1/PS2.  Your numbers in the last post are correct but you only gave up through 2010Q2.  Since then things have improved.

Profit/loss in million yen.
