For a lot of you, your own country debt are just above junk status on Moody and S&P...

We don't care about our countries. We care about Sony.

Shades of Sega here, even if Sony is a bigger company than Sega. Sony is likely to continue delay release of the next Playstation system until finances get better.

Been saying that ever since things started going down some years ago.  It's an awful thing to be a fan and let naivete and emotion blind the reality of the situation.

If the PS4 starts anything like the PS3, it may be a repeat of what happened with Sega.  All things considered, what are the odds that the PS4 won't start off big ... ?

I remember even daring trying to connect Sony with Sega in regards to consoles got a warning on here.  But, it just seemed to be going this way for awhile.  The videogame industry is brutal and no console maker stays on top indefinitely.  They will stumble and if they get lucky like Nintendo, they make a comeback.  Usually, they get booted out.  I think one sign that should of threw up flags to people that Playstation, as a brand, is not omnipotent, was that the PSP didn't win the battle against the DS, and the PS Vita isn't tearing it up either.  If "Playstation" as a brand, was that powerful, then the handheld market would be much more competitive, but it isn't.  Thing about console partisans is that, they are so tied to their brand, they will lose perspective.
