Not only that, home consoles attach rates are much higher than handhelds, so it's going to be a pain for Sony to earn money with the royalties. Sony is in a really harsh position with Vita.

fantastic so you're basically saying that sony are focusing on making games which are on such a low budget they can support a massive 10 employees? Which 10 people at sony you think will stay? Saying that a game broke even is great, unless it's something that less than a handfull of people made for a few hundred dollars.... because then you're stating that a game made a few hundred bucks, which isn't going to fuel a billion dollar company like sony.

"We can't drop the high price of the Vita because we need to recoup the money lost after the device sold poorly due to its high price"

Before I checked the quote's validity, I did honestly believe it was from a satirical publication like Private Eye or The Onion.

With management like that it is difficult to believe that Sony is struggling as a company ...
