Hell I even think they would be better off selling the PlayStation brand to Samsung. Gaming is a volatile market and its too easy to post losses without the right business model.


Wow, could be the worst idea/post iv read on here.

That would be the worst thing possible for them long term, PS is their future.

Compared to their banking and insurance business? PlayStation would really need to pick up the pace.

But I get what you're getting at. Sony Executives are already debating whether or not PS5 will be a physical or Cloud based console. If they do go cloud based they will save tons of money and it would be nearly all profit without having physical media and second hand sales to hold them down. If PS Now on non Sony devices takes off I could see PlayStation 5 on everything from phones, tvs, tablets, to even PC and the other consoles. But a lot of ducks will have to line up for it to happen. 


Those two are great but PS is their connection to their past of making hardware and awesome products.  That and the potential of it is insamly huge, PS on every device known to men.  The profits holy fuck they can become apple like.  

Yeah. I think that is their plan for the future of PlayStation. I'm sure that every PS4 will run it. Along with every other device known to man. There will be no more billions wasted developing hardware. No more worries about hardware sales, no more worries about GameStop trying to chip away the profits, and no more hardware restrictions. No more worries about APUs or CPU bottlenecks. Every game that comes out for it should be the best version possible. The possibilities are limitless if they go this route. Along with the money. It could save their company if they do it right. But if they keep trying to go the physical console route I think they would be better off going with the Samsung idea and focus on their banking and insurance businesses.

Sounds good. The world wants online-only consoles. That's what people made clear at the beginning of this generation, right?
