I will refer you to Videogameaccountant's post directly above this one as it is much better researched and eloquent than I could possibly offer as a response.

His post basically repeats what I've been writing here anyway. Gaming is very important to Sony, but it's not the only important segment, unlike what Wyrdness claimed.

Where did I say it's the only important segment? I highlighted how dependent they are on the gaming side of things to the point that right now it practically negates the performance of other segments, remove the gaming side of things and all of a sudden the numbers Sony present to investors become a troubling sight hence why I even reference if they had another PS3 debacle the trouble it could bring.

Others have addressed the situation pretty much, the fact that one segment makes around 30% of the income out of 10 divisions even backs what I'm highlighting, if Sony had similar performances from other divisions next year only with gaming making no money that missing 30% would turn heads and the would be problems and the stock would drop significantly to reflect that.
