It depends. Profit is indeed bound with sales . We are so late in this gen, and late adopters are typically not the biggest buyers, few mills hardly make a difference. Any difference.
Looking at it from bussines POV, the issue is simple, PS4 did reach its target sales, it is confirmed, Switch is in unknown position, Xbox is Xbox to be diplomatic.
The real money is software, the PS4 dominates it all ways around on this site, aaaand.... its software sales is undertracked by over 200 million.
The PS4 is the biggest winner this gen, it took the HW sales crown day1, it took the multiplatform sales as well ( last gen multiplats sold more on 360 generally ), and royalties is money to the hands for nothing, eh, and they got that digital sales bonus, the sales of Sony games is simply a dream comes true, and it will get only better, they are reaching the Nintendo levels slowly. The best things console market has is now in Sony's hands.
Perhaps u are not that old bag as me, I remember well the PS360 days, for me this is magic, I remember that PARTY threads when 360 was 5 mils above PS4 that launch a year later, and stuff...
Sometimes I wonder - where is my party now?
