No, but it shows that trying to predict a company's longevity using their cash reserves (which as those links show can fluctuate wildly from year to year) rather than analyzing their business model makes very little sense.

Ah, ok. So, using your logic here (which I'm not saying is bad), I can safely assume with the utmost accuracy, that Sony will go bankrupt very soon. I mean, Sony has no money in the bank and they've been bleeding cash for a decade now. 

Hmm.... Now I think I understand how the real world actually works. Thanks, buddy!

I've poked through Nintendo's financials in the past, but I've never given much attention to Sony's. Most of what I know about their financial situation is second or third hand, so I'm probably not in a position to say.

With that said, it sounds like you're trying to predict Sony's longeviry using their cash reserves, rather than analyzing their business.
