obviously I hope Sony the best but I wouldn't mind seeing a true powerhouse like Samsung, Apple, Google or Amazon take on the PS brand. Sony is ruling the roost already but the possibilities with someone with such pockets are endless. 


Why would Sony ever ditch one of their most profitable divisions though? At best, Sony will keep selling the problematic divisions like they did with Vaio but not ditching the ones that gives them food. The thing we may see in a very distant future is like Sony = gaming and nothing else as long as PS makes money of course.

if they were to go out of business they might break up and sell their divisions to whoever wants them.

why? if they kept all the PLaystation guys on it would benefit even more. They would be able to invest more in games development that Sony could ever dream of. Plus MS couldn't afford to buy 3rd party exclusives.

Google Apple Pippin to know the problems of a Apple Console. Bigger Flop than even the Philips CDi or the Virtual Boy, if not THE biggest flop in console history.

You don't seem to get what I'm saying. They wouldn't buy the brand and then just think up some crap console. They would keep SOny's model going if they were smart. Keep it the exact same but do the things Sony couldn't afford to do. You would have to be insane to buy PS for like 20BN and then go off your own way. 

MS bought Minecraft. Do you see them trying to change it to be something it's not? No.
