I was looking at the balance sheet, and wow, Sony is accumulating debt fast.

Their long term debt debt was 651 billion yen last year, 1.07 trillion yen now. So they increased their debt by 64% in the course of a year

Neither Sony nor Nintendo changed their fiscal year forecasts for software or hardware.

Wii - 2.23m HW/ 52.62m LTD

DS - 5.97m HW / 107.75m LTD

Wii SW - 31.07m / 384.09m LTD

DS SW - 29.09m / 596.00m LTD

 

Shipments LTDs through June 2009:

PS2 - 139.3m

DS - 107.75m

PSP - 53.0m

Wii - 52.62m

X360 - 31.40m

PS3 - 23.83m

PS2 actually outshipped the other systems. Lifetime to date:

PS2 HW (1.6m) - 139.3m LTD

PSP HW (1.3m) - 53m LTD

PS3 HW (1.1m) - 22.83m LTD

Did you type the PS3 shipments wrong?



Tease.

Wow, just wow. Nintendo then expects to sell 24 million Wii's in 9 months? Considering we already know Wii sold less than 1 million in July, then it's 23 million on 8 months. Impossible. They lied to the investors, unless they plan on cutting the price to 150 next month, it won't happen and you can quote me on that.

Bets with Conegamer:

Pandora's Tower will have an opening week of less than 37k in Japan. (Won!)
Pandora's Tower will sell less than 100k lifetime in Japan.
Stakes: 1 week of avatar control for each one.

Fullfilled Prophecies

Yeah both Sony and Nintendo are in La-La land regarding their forecasts.

@NJ5: Im getting confused by the new division could you tell me:

What did the old SCE make/lose (does this include Sony Ericson or is that seperate?)



Tease.

@Squilliam: It has nothing to do with Sony Ericsson.

The new division is SCE, VAIO and Walkman. The report says the SCE and VAIO parts had lower operating income than last year, whether it's negative or not they don't say (of course at least one of them has to be negative as Walkman made money).

Conclusion: SCE made less than $56 million this quarter, or they lost money.

Is the Walkman popular anymore now that iPods dominate?



I think we're gonna get a Wii price this year, so I can see them getting close to 26m. PS3 and PSP especially I have major issues with reaching the goals.

Squillam its not a typo - PS2 had a 25% price cut this quarter ($30/$130) and it only increased 6% year over year. Its just that the PS2 peak was so much higher than anything PS3/360 have ever seen that it can outsell those systems easily when it perks up for some reason if they have a lull.
