Right now Sony is under protection from being bought out so PlayStation should be ok until then. However if this passes they will be vulnerable to takeover. If this happens then whoever takes over Sony would be able to do whatever they want to it, including selling PlayStation, Sony Worldwide Studios, Sony Financial etc. At least this is how it usually works in theory. With Japan itself practically owning Sony though it might not work like that. |
With big companies buying into gaming related stuff left and right in the last years (oculus, twitch, mojang), something like playstation could sure be sold for quite some money in no time. And that's probably why some managers/investors/reporters are mad because it would be easy money.
