| quaiky said: ast fy loss doesn't say anything about the fact if hardware is still a loss or if they got it profitabole allready. they probably have lost a lot in first half of last fy and in the heavy pricedrop. but there has been reports that by jan 2008 ps3 manufactoring costs have allready dropped to around 400$, which means that cause of the strong euro they probably allready have been selling hardware with a profit in europe starting with jan (or maybe even in holiday season). with the rsx shrink & the next cell shrink as well as mainboard shrinks and smaller cooling they will get more an more profitable. as long as they don't have to do a big pricedrop again i don't see anything that will cause them a loss in the current financial year. i think they might even be able to do a ~50$ pricedrop after the shrinks (if the 360 pricedrop has to be countered with one), but that would mean lower profits so i guess they will try to keep price same as long as possible. |
Except they lost money in the 4th quarter. Which means they basically have to be losing money per console. If sony was making money per PS3 i'm sure we'd hear all about it.
