Maybe not sales-wise - albeit they went from selling three times the combined number of their rivals' consoles in the previous generation to spending roughly three-quarters of the generation in third place - but the console's obscene R&D costs put a major financial drain on the company. They would probably have needed PS2-type numbers to turn a profit from the project, and they fell a long way short. |
Well from that point, never will came back, surely will not sale again 3x more combined than their rivals, also PS3 sold very similar to 360 and only around 15 milions than best selling console, so we dont talk about huge difrence in any case if comparing that generation. Talking about financial matters, yes we talking about totally different things comparing PS3 and PS4, but to be fair Sony was making profit on PS3 last few PS3 years.
