Very expensive HD development, lower than expected HD userbase, lack of big budget titles on market leader and unreliable Wii core audience pretty much covers it I guess.



Lots of Sony doom and gloom on this thread. Think some people are overreacting slightly. Am sure Sony can pull things around. Not saying they can win this gen but theres no way they are pulling out of hardware this gen probably not even next gen. Not saying they aren't losing money but their sales are still growing, albeit only slightly. No way they are going to "do a Sega". Once the recession is over i'm sure this kind of talk will stop.

In my opinion the N64 was not just the best console of the 5th gen but, to this day the best console ever created!

It's just the pendulum swinging. Once it's all said and done, at the end of the gen, it'll be a virtual tie.

Here it is. It's really bad. Mind you, this is in a time where the vg-industry is experiencing extraordinary growth.


 

 Wonder how many of those publishers (and I would say Sony and Microsoft are making money on the software side anyway) will be approaching being in the black after 12/31/2008.

If memory serves me correctly, Microsoft has made over $500,000,000 this year (Q3 2007-Q3 2008), so that'd put them in the upper eschelons of profitable video game companies.

 

 

I;m pretty sure Sony;s loses have dropped considerably since that chart was made.

Not really, hasn't changed much. Q208 looked better than Q207 maybe.

Probably will get worse in the next quarter because of currency losses. Q308 estimates have already been cut $300 million by Sony, so it could be pretty ugly.



Amazing software sales are in

Good thing LBP software sales went up by 2k this week, and R2 is holding it own, both games should see a boost for black friday, and LBP should break a million in a week or two.



 

mM

Probably, but the numbers in Japan just suck. I mean in America and in Others, those Wii numbers are freaking insane. I mean 400k in Others and 300k in America.lol

Nintendo clearly had sped up there Mario Factories.



Can't wait to see the Wii Fit numbers next week. They are going to be HUGE!

What's the most a game has ever sold in a non-launch window week not counting Wii Sports?
