Xbox has repeated the same terrible mistakes for over a decade. The reason is simple: its priorities are back-to-front.

    Take a look at Sony’s annual reports and then get back to me. PlayStation is the engine that drives the company.

        The sale figures are a bit misleading as the different sections also have different costs (sales make games look more important).

        The corporate reports are archived here, and the equivalent per-section breakdown is on page 37 of the 2023 report.

        https://www.sony.com/en/SonyInfo/IR/library/corporatereport/

        When comparing operating revenue (i.e. profit) the breakdown is:

        section billion yen
        games and network services 250
        music 263
        pictures 119
        entertainment technology & services 180
        imaging & sensing solutions 212
        financial services 234
        other 17

        So it looks like they made a little more profit from music that year.

        1. Revenue is not profit.
        2. Gaming is by far the biggest bar in that graph.

        I stand by my point.
