How on earth Games are making a loss?
Was to expecive to comission an extra 2mi unities from the previous contract?
I must say I'm more and more confident my prediction was spot on when using those PS3 estimates.

Instead of seeking to convince others, we can be open to changing our own minds, and seek out information that contradicts our own steadfast point of view. Maybe it’ll turn out that those who disagree with you actually have a solid grasp of the facts. There’s a slight possibility that, after all, you’re the one who’s wrong.

PS4 is probably sold at a loss, PS3 and Vita numbers are very low.
Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
I'll just ask in here. Is NPD today or tomorrow?

Tomorrow, it's always on Thursdays. On topic: I am shocked that Sony as a whole posted such a big loss. They are in big trouble now. Perhaps they should sell off PlayStation to let it be in the hands of a company that can do its legacy justice. |
Nintendo?

Oh come on Rol :) I dont think theres anyone that can take better care of the PS brand than Sony themselves. But its quite obvious that Kaz isnt doing a great job, and ppl are complaining about Iwata.... pffft
I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!
Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
Are NPD numbers out yet?

Given I am really trying to simplify this to the best of my ability. Operating Income means in the simplist sense, the income from the company operating day to day.
For the simplist version it is (Sales) Revenue - Cost of Product (Cost of Goods Sold) = Gross Profit - Operating Expense = Operating Income
However a company isn't just something that operates to continue to exist. It has taxes, It has other expenses and other income sources and they do add up and they add up dramatically.
(I think this is a good way to explain it, Kowen, wanna take a better shot at it?)

As long as people keep buying games for the Vita, it'll continue to get games.

Oh ya I wrote operating expense twice...dooh, let me fix that.
