Estimates put Steam revenue at 3.5 billion
PSN had revenue of 6.48 billion last fiscal year so yes PSN is far bigger than Steam in terms of revenue.
Picture division made money actually afaik, as there is an impacted $900m charge that's an accounting "trick" that was done in Q3.Its a shame their net profit was slashed by half because of the pictures division. There seems to be always a division that fucks up the entire profit.
That PSN figure included physical games and maybe even console hardware IIRC.

PSN is anything digital. Physical/hardware sales are not included.That PSN figure included physical games and maybe even console hardware IIRC.
Look page 14 in pdf.Not understanding you sorry lol. So not really money but just in the books or something"? lol
The impairment charge is described as a non-cash loss that relates to a number of factors, including the purchase of the studio almost 30 years ago, and dramatic shifts in the home entertainment space currently being felt throughout the entire industry. A majority of the goodwill that was impaired, Sony said, was originally recorded at the time of the acquisition of Columbia Pictures Entertainment in 1989.
Look page 14 in pdf.
They call it an "impairment charge of goodwill". Closer to $1b.

Yup thats the basic of the basic though.One of the reasons why cash flow is a superior metric to net profit.
Simply put: all the money is there. Its just they way they record and presented it.I still dont understand but whatever lol

They'll hit 100m in FY19 assuming:
FY17: 18m
FY18: 15m
FY19: 10m
That'll round off at 105m, so beating the PS1 & Wii and if it still sells well over 20/21 it might even beat the GB/GBC (118m) to second overall behind the PS2.
The transition to PS5 will be more crucial than 2-3. The huge digital component of many users' libraries must surely lead to BC, and that will be the key thing they absolutely cannot drop the ball over. This is the last 'lock-in' generation and if they mess up BC I can see people leaving their ecosystem in droves.
Wrong.That PSN figure included physical games and maybe even console hardware IIRC.
Remember when ps4 was frontloaded and it would suffer to reach 60M LTD? Those were the times
Estimates put Steam revenue at 3.5 billion
PSN had revenue of 6.48 billion last fiscal year so yes PSN is far bigger than Steam in terms of revenue.
Unless you give a quote i don't believe someone said that.Remember when ps4 was frontloaded and it would suffer to reach 60M LTD? Those were the times
This honestly surprises me. One would think that the highest record would be during the PS2 era.Also as a sidenote Gaming division was just 2 million yens shy of all time record for profit. Division did 137 billion yen back in FY1998 and now 135 billion. Thanks to different currency exchange rate in dollar gaming division actually made record (1.21 billion vs 1.138 billion)
Just this holiday season Sony has marketing, etc fora shitload of marketing bundles with big third-party games, all of which should have a significant impact commercially.
Read Dead 2Just this holiday season Sony has marketing, etc for
COD:WW2
Battlefront 2
Destiny 2
Absolutely crazy,
What other AAA's are around that window?

But on the other hand people also said xbox one will fail to even sell 40 million LTD

Read Dead 2
Red Dead Redemption 2 possibly, which they're also marketing.
Sony has Red Dead Redemption 2 too
and beaten lol
They also have Red Dead Redemption 2, but there's of course a big question mark about it releasing. Then you have GT Sport. Not third party but obviously a big deal for them.
Red Dead Redemption 2, which is also with Sony.
Assassin's Creed Empire
New Need for Speed
A Bethesda game
Drawing a blank on anything more.
That was a good shot and close enough for a 4 years old prediction.But on the other hand people also said xbox one will fail to even sell 40 million LTD

Just carious, what did you use for making this graph (Matlab I assume?)
I think BC it's a given at this point. A given and a must.
So the PS4 is at 60 mil now and I don't see the momentum letting up unless the Switch and Scorpio significantly steal the wind out of its sales somehow. Incoming, there's still software like Spider-Man, God of War, VII-Remake, Days Gone, The Last of Us Part II and a shitload of marketing bundles with big third-party games, all of which should have a significant impact commercially.
I'm confident this thing will go beyond 100 million. Question is when it will happen.
This honestly surprises me. One would think that the highest record would be during the PS2 era.
I'd say nothing is quite a given. I hope for BC, but if it turned out to compromise the next design in some significant way - specifically in terms of PS5 game performance at a given price point - Sony might sacrifice it. I think that's less likely to be necessary than it was in the PS3->PS4 transition, but I wouldn't rule it out entirely yet,
