Sony To Focus On Gaming


Top Sony staff have recently had discussions about how to overturn their massive losses from the last financial year, which are rumoured to be in the region of $6.4 billion and have caused over 10,000 Sony employees to lose their jobs. Although these massive losses are not primarily caused by the gaming side of the company but instead by sales of other devices such as TVs the fact the PS Vita weekly sales have dropped below 10,000 units in Japan are thought to be the reason Sony have taken notice of the problems facing their gaming business. Sony have therefore decided to focus more of their attention on their gaming platforms in the hope that the gaming side of their company can lead the company out of the red.

In a plan called "One Sony" Sony have outlined a series of ideas that will help the PS3 and Vita  become more successful in their ongoing battle with Microsoft with an overall aim of recouping some of the losses the other legs of their business have experienced. Although it is not fully clear what this will mean for Sony it can be strongly assumed that more capital will be put into development which is good news for any fans looking forward to a potential PlayStation 4
