The gaming industry continues to experience a decline in hardware sales this past quarter with Sony just reporting a dip in sales for the game division during the second quarter ending September 30th. However, there is one bright spot for the PlayStation division as the company managed to sell more home consoles than both the Xbox 360 and Wii combined.
Financial Recap


Sony reported a bump in revenue of 2 percent continuing its growth seen last quarter, but still posted a net loss of $198 million. The company did manage to shrink its loss of $350 million during the same quarter last year. The good news for Sony is that the company as a whole actually posted an operating profit of $388 million before taxes which is a significant improvement over the $20 million loss same time last year.

On the gaming side of things, the PlayStation division reported a drop in sales by 15.8 percent year over year rounding revenue out to $1.85 billion. The gaming division did post a small operating profit of $29 million, a decline from last year but an improvement from the $45 million loss seen last quarter.

Software grew on both the home console and handheld fronts as the company shifted 41.4 million PS3/PS2 game up from 40.2 million. On the handheld side, software sales grew from 8.2 to 8.7 million units.

I would think for sure Xbox would outsell the PS3 with Halo 4 coming out..
