LOL, then they'll revamp the Walkman brand as a "rocker" alternative to the hipster iWhatever, they'll ditch Sony branding on TVs and rebadge them as iTVs and start selling all, together with PlayStations (with PSV painted white and renamed as "iPoshtation") in jeweller shops, at twice the current price (that dorks will pay more happily than a cut price).

If you can imagine anything even eviler than what you just wrote, you must be Satan himself!!!!!   

Sorry for my infinite ignorance but what does this mean? What happens if your company has the "junk" status?

Sony are already going 3rd party

And dont forget the planned expansion of PS NOW away from Sony devices.

I think if Sony go under though, Playstation can hold its own and survive as a console manufacturer, developer and publisher

hobby investors don't buy or sell stocks, warren buffet buys or keeps stocks.

I wonder when Sony will start realizing they should cut off their cancer known as the TV division? :/

it never gets better,crushed by apple & samsung

I hope not. That would be a disaster. It will not be affordable or you will be gaming on the iPad or iPhone.

Good. Let's hope Apple buys just the gaming division so the powerhouse consoles become American property!

You can't be serious? I'd rather have a company like Vizio or somebody buy Playstation. Or pretty much anyone else before Apple. The last thing we need is some trendy overpriced crap in the gaming market.

ahah :)
