Checchè ne dicano i (numerosi) detrattori, Sony sa far quadrare i bilanci in positivo, gliene va dato atto.
Ed ecco tutte le analisi finanziarie:After bleeding red for months, Sony's games division finally turned a profit last quarter. This after Sony slashed prices on consoles, boosted game titles, and cut production costs internally. Of course, we're sure Wii shortages aren't hurting Sony's bottom line either. Sony did lower its annual sales goal of PS3s from 11 million to 9.5 million (citing a slow start) while increasing projections of PSPs to 13 million from 10 million as originally expected. Sony's fiscal year ends in March. Overall, Sony's profits rose 25% for the quarter. Welcome back to black Sony, it's been a long time coming.
