How did Sony turn the PS3 around but Nintendo couldn't do the same with Wii U?

This should show it quite well

Sony pretty much threw away their money during the PS3 era. Microsoft is even more interesting.

 

yeah but sony and ms have bigger revenue in total. If i make 100$ revenue and113$ loses every year while you make 10$ revnue and 8$ loses who has more flexebility here?

Ummm... I have more flexibility.  Because I have 2 dollars.  You meanwhile owe someone 13 dollars, and eventurally they're going to want it back.  

There are circumstances where it is worth taking a short term hit in profit for the sake of revenue, and debt is not always the worst thing in the world, but losing money does not make you more flexible or healthy as a company.
