Because making another console or handheld makes no sense.


can't wait to play all Sony games on my Lumia then


Did you miss the PS4 sales thread?


And yet, Sony still announced that they are going to go mobile.

And most recently Sony said they will bring there games to TVs as well. (even though the PS4 has been doing gangbusters)

 

The only conclusion I can come from Sony's statements during these times, is that no amount of good sales can make them a good enough profit.

I guess Sony doesn't know how to manage their business in the video game industry. Because they are clearly doing something wrong when they keep going the extra distants on how they will port their games after all of these good sales of the PS4 (just under 3DS sales).


Sony's software sells like crap.  There is really just no other way to spin it.  Consoles bring in zero profit and my guess is that every PS4 sold is actually being sold at a loss after marketing, shipment, and retailer costs.   Right now Sony and Microsoft are basically creating a platform for 3rd Parties to make a bunch of money on for free.     People for a while now keep screaming that Nintendo should cater to 3rd Parties, which is the exact reason why Microsoft is looking to get out of the game, and Sony is reeling, even with high PS4 sales.    Sony should have never given up Crash Bandicoot and Spyro years ago.  It was dumb then and it still is.  Crash Bandicoot was Sony's Mario and they just let it go.   Now they are trying to make new charecters and franchises which are always a big risk.  Little Big Planet Karting was a huge bomb.  Same as Playstation All-Stars.    Nintendo on the other hand can go make Smash Bros and even if the Wii U sells like crap, we all know it will do huge numbers.
