Forums - Sony Discussion - How Much Longer Can Sony Survive On Playstation Alone?

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/02/21/playstation-sony_n_4828617.html?utm_hp_ref=technology

That is sort of the big question that most gaming sites will ignore.  That article will never touch the N4G and neoGAFs of the gaming world.  While most people are having a laughing party on the XBox One's resolution and esRam issues for now those are really minor issues.  What happens one day you wake up and  hear more Sony asssets being sold of and they're moving towards liquidation?  I know this will be taken as troll bait but it's not.  I will say this to the entire Playstation Nation, buy shares in the company if you love it that much.  Right now they have a junk credit rating.  Games cost $60.  Pretend its a game and buy 3 shares.  If 5 million people from the Playstation Nation do this thats  $180 million dollars.

Think about it.

SAVE SONY

Dumb article is retarded. Considering their insurance is the best for the company and movies and music is usually solid and if they keep delivering with phones... sony isnt just playstation and you should be embarrassed posting this rubish



Well... its Playstation and buildings.... If the worst comes to worst, they will just keep on selling buildings to survive until one die they file for bankruptcy but I don't see that happening for a while (as in decades)... Yes they are losing money in virtually every other department (except a select few) but they have enough to keep them alive for a while

oh, and its already touched n4g.you should be double embarrassed



Two things:

1). Sony isn't dead yet, there are efforts going on to right the ship and there seems to be an awareness that certain divisions of the company are dragging it down big style, particularly TVs and laptops

2). Like you said, PS is doing well and has huge brand recognition - if the shit hits the fan and Sony do under, there will be plenty of people happy enough to buy up SCE and keep it going - PlayStation is too valuable a name to be allowed simply to die

Sony doesn't get that 180 million dollars even if you buy the stock. Sony would have to make more shares available for Sony to get any money from that. Just buying existing shares doesn't do anything.

Double Owned LOL ...



Let us get this straight.

1. That's a shit article

2. If they really want to write something bearish about sony, they shoudl've changed it with:
How long can sony survive with only its financial division.

Now to the point, sony has a lot more than playstation that makes money. They also have a lot that loses.

They are still doing a turn around so give them some frekking time.
