Kotaro Kotaro should now start speculating which studios they will buy. Maybe Capcom?

Maybe........

Considering they only got here by aggressively raising prices, fuck them.

I'm sure they'll raise prices again despite this massive success. They just can't go on without it. They're just a poor fragile company.
 
Good numbers. Congratulations. I hope they use those extra money to fund great single players exclusive, revive OG PS IP, and hopefully revive Japan studio. And I hope they stop porting there 1st and 2nd party exclusive to other platform. And I hope they stop this live service or gaas madness.

Sony PS will have a discount Day of Play, coming up this May 28 up to June 11.
 
are you....salty?
Nope. I have a ps5. Have owned every PlayStation. I find it shitty to cheerlead a corporations market value hitting an all time high after consistently raising prices around the world. That should not be praised.

A corporation making more money because they're charging me more money isn't something I'd ever cheer for.

🤔.

as i wise man said:
"It's a Business"
So their big yearly promotion is to temporarily drop prices back down to the price it was before the second global price increase (outside of US)? This isn't defending your point.

The facts are the facts. Sony raised prices globally again (sans US) and now they have their highest valuation ever. Fuck that. I'm not cheerleading that.

I dont know how can i tell you that the biggest cheerleading you can do is...buying PS products. 🤷‍♂️
 
Before you fanboys celebrate

They barely release any games - and make more money than ever?

What DO YOU will management do with this info?

1. Make more games?
2. Make less games?
This is so fucking dumb They would think if they made more games they get more money.

But making their games cost lots of money. So they can always just do the George Castanza approach and do nothing. Not making money on first party software, but also not spending money on software.

Only partially joking.
 
No make games that people want not the gaas shit that flopped. if that was some new single player games they most likely would of made profit.
I agree. And bring back Japan studio and revive legendary PS IP. For me I want too see this old PS IP be back: Wipeot, Colony Wars, Warkhawk, Alundra, Wild arms, Legend of Dragoon, Resistance, Infamous, Blood borne, Days gone, Motorstorm, Socom, Jak and Daxter, Sly and Disruptor. And I hope this are single player exclusive. It is okay if they will add traditional MP mode as long as there will always be a single player campaign.

Literally every company is raising prices.
 
I am, because they increased the price of PS+ and games in my country by using "market conditions" as an excuse.

Considering more games means more money and they're in the business of making more money, I'm guessing they'll be making more game.

So many good IP there I would love to see resistance remade/rebooted and didn't even realise how many good RPG games they are sitting on.

They're doing that in every country because - I'm not sure if you've looked outside lately - but market conditions are pretty shit right now.

If you were the CEO of Sony and your goal was to say, make Sony the first trillion-dollar Japanese company. What would you do to get it there?

Now you may ask, why would Sony want to be a trillion dollar company? Well, look at it's major competitors and markets. Sony is primarily an Entertainment company and Big Tech is taking over Entertianment. Only with size can Sony realistically compete with these giants across multiple playing fields.

Sony is kind of a small fish in a big pond these days, but they know by leveraging their strength in different markets, they can grow a lot quicker.

Microsoft is worth 3.42 Trillion. It took Sony 20 years to defeat their purse.
Nvidia is worth 3.3 Trillion. What happens if they had to compete against Nvidia in cloud gaming head up?
Apple is worth 2.9 Trillion. They built Apple TV+ overnight.
Amazon is worth 2.19 Billion. They have Amazon Prime Video and are just starting to try to get into gaming.
Netflix is worth 515 Billion. They have massive control over the tv/film business and again will have a huge advantage if things go to cloud.

Disney is worth 201 Billion. Sony Pictures struggles to compete with them head to head.

At some point we're going to see Sony getting aggressive in terms of M&A. This is the first time I've seen them with so much cash on hand; more cash on hand than debt.

Companies like WB Discovery, Skydance Paramount, T2... are going to be on their radar the larger they get. Only way Sony can survive is to grow.

If you're CEO you want to be the biggest tv/film company, the biggest music company, and biggest game company. That's not them today. Especially in the picture business, Sony probably has to buy someone in the next 10 years or sell out of the market.
