does my and millions of other gamers enjoyment of the ps3 depend on the profits it's making? Answer is no. 

It had a great comeback andbecome profitable for it's last few years. It will probably never make it all back but it set Sony up nicely to return to domination with the PS4. Heck look at Japan and WW sales. It's still selling good numbers. Higher than some rival consoles too and we're in 2015. That's one hell of a comeback. 

You do realize that PS3 ate up all of the profits the PS1 and PS2 made right? Sony has lost money from the PS brand despite selling almost 400 million consoles (psp included). How is that one hell of a comeback?

If your enjoyment does not rely on the profits of the PS3 then why does it rely on how much it sold? Strange way of thinking.

It should be about the games.

Because more consoles sold means more people playing and more games coming out, sony didnt made profit because their product was bad but because they spend money into online infastructure and other things for playstation who are one of the reason why they are now sucessfull. Nintendo can make profit how much they want they will never be the market leader which brings them always at more risk than sony.
