Well done :lolSo where does Sony go from here?
And yeah, Sony has all that stuff that drags everything down.
Well done :lolSo where does Sony go from here?
I believe the only division that has made them any money so far this year has been the gaming division of Sony. Even if they don't cut Consumer electronics they need to reevaluate it. Clearly CES hasn't gotten investors excited about the new line of products they just announced, which is a problem. At this point their basically just keeping up with trends, and believe me. I don't want to see Sony disappear. That wouldn't be good for the games market, but they have a lot of hard choices on what to focus on and promote.Gaming division is a very small part of Sony. Its important, but not so important for Sony if it succeed or fail.
TV, consumer electronics, film are much more important sectors for Sony.
Nintendo is singularly focused on gaming for the most part.
So where does Sony go from here?
When compared to other video game related companies...
Edit. Activision-Blizzard: 12.74B
I believe the only division that has made them any money so far this year has been the gaming division of Sony.
And yet Sony is in a ton more industries then Nintendo.
TV's
Laptops
Movies
Music
Videogame Hardware
Videogame Software
Videogame handheld Hardware
Cameras
List goes on.
Nintendo?

Sony needs to cut the three bolded items and possibly cut cameras, or seriously shrink that division.

Out of curiosity what's Microsoft's?
damn, didn't know Namco-Bandai was that big, let alone Konami and Capcom being bigger than Ubi and Take-Two. Certainly though Acti-Blizzard eclipses all of the third-parties which I don't see at all.
It really is amazing how stupid investor's conventional wisdom can be. Activist shareholder Dan Loeb tried to get Sony to spin off its movie division and investors got all excited even though people who knew better knew Sony was never going to listen to that guy. Sony released a polite press release saying no and that's the best change he managed.
Nintendo missing the Wii U sales forecast next earnings report is going to hit investors like a sack of bricks because Nintendo still publicly insists they can hit it. People like us know better. If Nintendo doesn't announce any change in overall strategy their stock will drop 10% on the first day and probably bleed out another 10-25% in the following weeks.

Still insanely wealthy, worth multiple times Sony and Nintendo combined.

$304 billion, though its value has been in decline since December for some reason.

They're the comparative Scrooge Mcduck, they could but they don't want to.
Nintendo should buy sony's games division.
For some reason? Windows 8 is doing terrible and a OS no one wants. Windows Phones are (still) doing terrible and lol Surface.

If they could they would do it.Microsoft should buy both of them.But not really.

Nintendo has been so successful because they've been a master at conserving money and growing profits, most notably during the Wii era.
They have a large cash position and no debt, unlike Sony.

I like it!So where does Sony go from here?
But we need our Grown Ups 2, After Earth, Battle of the Year 3D, and Smurfs 2 3D. How can they deny us?
And that 18 billion dollars is EXACTLY why the Nintendo Wii U is here to stay
Like I said Scrooge Mcduck, Staying rich can simply involving conserving and minimising costs. Scrooge isn't rich for no reason. It's a common trait for many that have amassed and continue to amass wealth.
Yea lets just forget about skyfall , Spider-Man , captain Phillips , American hustle , etc.
Umm no. Movies, and music are two of their money makers they get a ton of royalties from them. And cameras? No as well
Yet whenever the topic comes up about competing with Sony, you almost always hear "they can't afford to compete on technology" or "they can't afford to buy third-party support" (paraphrasing, of course). Nintendo can't be both rich and poor.
Wasn't Nintendo worth 80 billion at its peak? Damn.
But we need our Grown Ups 2, After Earth, Battle of the Year 3D, and Smurfs 2 3D. How can they deny us?
lol
They should fire their Sonywata
I wouldn't tout the new Spider-Mans too much
Without a doubt!
To be serious, I definitely feel Kaz Hirai have failed in doing those decisions he needed to do, and should be much closer to getting fired than Iwata, who after all have a ton of successes as well.

But Scrooge McDuck's company wasn't public.

Just like the old days.So you are saying Sony is the scrappy underdog?
It didn't get to be the PS4's font. (Seriously looking back how retarded was that original PS3 font!).Why ?
