Forums - Sony - Why I think the PS3 won't be discontinued (and why I may be wrong)

I hope the PS3 gets canned. And the PSP and PS2.

Then we can finally have a new conversation on this site. x_x

@NJ5: SEK has gone down in relation to Euro and Nordisk Film propably wants to adjust its profit margin due to weakened currency (plus, to prepare for it going down even more), lower than expected PS3 sales and PS2 dying off.

In that case the price should also increase for the Wii/360, or is it a different distributor?

@NJ5: Nordisk Film for Playstation (SWE, NOR, DEN, FIN), Bergsala for Nintendo and i don't know about 360 importer, could be M$ itself.
But, they are under different importers anyway and i believe the key is sales expectations with the currency going down.

If this thread was created by a Sony fanboy, you guys would probably be gushing at it right now... I seriously can't understand you guys some times.

Maybe there is an us and them mentality amongst Sony fans.  After all there was a very recent thread where anyone that isn't a Sony fan was told to keep out.  Appears to me that as you are not one of them you aren't allowed to make this sort of thread.

Hopefully, Apple will put out on a PS4 under the Ibox moniker next time if Sony doesn't because if the only two choices are Nintendo and Microsoft it will be a pretty sad day for the hobby of gaming.

I'm pretty sure Sony is not going to discontinue the PS3. Why you fu%#in ass clowns feel the need to spread bullshit around a pasture that has plenty is beyond me......do us all a favor and shut the hell up : ) Speculation is the reason the economy is falling apart....speculation is saying that Sony may discontinue the PS3....get the drift?



I'll think of something to put here

Sony failed a lot of things this gen (not including idiotic console e-peen races) but I see no reason for them to discontinue a console that they invested so much into and have a games division and a new media format relying on that 20 pound machine. Gamecube imo failed 3x as hard but was still a fun system and never was discontinued or N64 or SNES which all didn't do well in sales.

People act like because Sony finally comes in last place now they should all of a sudden give up and admit they're terrible. People like seeing the successful fail but I still don't see a reasonable fact why Sony would gain more from canceling the Ps3.

These "failed" consoles were all profitable, which is what matters in business. The PS3 can have more sales, but it's meaningless to the company if they can't get any money out of it. Sony seems to be in a very weak financial state, which is the reason all the "doom" threads have been appearing - I don't think the same could be said about Nintendo, even in their Gamecube days.

 

 Nintendo always made a profit off of the GameCube due to cheap manufacturing. It was a very cost friendly system so they could cut the price of it quickly.

Why would it? 

Sony would most likely remain developing software for Nintendo & Microsoft

 

 



 

@Dolfan: What? So if we speculate that Sony is going to discontinue PS3, that will eventually happen?
