Did they lose money this quarter, because I thought it were already above 500 million. 

The Sony Corp. lose money because the earthquack ($230 million) and tax credits ($3 billion)... but the PlayStation Division profited $429 million.


I think he meant this Q ... in regards to that, about $100 mill they lost this Q? To bring it down to the $429

Ohhh I got now.

Lost 13.3b yen ($160m).

Not bad tbh, first profit in a long time. All 3 will profit this FY, that hasn't happened in the industry for decades if I'm correct.

Even then I think Sony and Sega lost money some years.
