Tagging this, looking forward to awful vita sales n some grandiose ps4's.
Isn't this gonna be the first time Sony won't hide behind their Handheld (Vita+PSP) since PSP is discontinued ?

This will be helped by decent TV sales from the World Cup promos (I even bought a Sony TV!).

 

 

This thread has reached it's high point :P

But really, Sony tv's are great, the only thing that isn't great about them (usually) is the price, since the competition make theirs elsewhere and can undercut them massively.

i think they stopped shipping in june, which means this quarter will also have some shipments for PSP



I think they only discontinued PSP in Japan and USA still shipments for EU this year and South America and other Asian markets.



PSP Lifetime more than PSV+3DS Lifetime.

Well I bought 2 Sony Androids this quarter, using the insurance money I got for a busted brand new HTC One. So I did my bit. Though I would have preferred it if my HTC One didn't break.

They finally had a decent tv at a decent price.  kdl 55w829.  Got one for the family room.

When I come to get a 4k later this year for my gaming room... I doubt it will be a sony.

I picked up a XBR70X850B in Bic Camera a few weeks back, wouldn't normally but the price seemed to be weirdly low, paid 248,500 yen (about 2.5k usd / 1.5k gbp), sure enough a week later they were listed at 538,840 yen (5.4k usd / 3.2k gbp).

I really like that model.  I cant stand the other one with the speakers on either side.  It seems odd to me that they would create such a beast when people spending this much on a TV would almost certainly have a very good AV set up.

Yeah that was the one they had in most stores mid to late last year, didn't like the odd speakers on it either, i just wanted something with a slim bezel and 4k as we get a lot of 4k channels, and can stream 4k easilly. (on 2gbit net).

This one ticked all the boxes and since it was so low i snapped it up there and then, works great with my Onkyo setup



I expect really nice TV sales.
Nice PS4 sales(something like 9 millions.)
Bad PSvita sales
I don't know about smartphones.



Preparing for the worst in regards to profit. Other than that I hope we get a clear number on PS4 shipments not just that PS3+PS4 crap.
