Over the past year, Sony has sold a record number of PlayStation 4
Sony summed up the past financial year. Game division continues to bring the company massive profits – total revenue increased by 6.3% and made up of 14.73 billion. Due to the lower costs of production operating income increased to 1.21 billion. Not the last role was played by the decrease in the price of the PlayStation 4, sales of which last year broke its own record.
For the 2016 fiscal year, Sony managed to ship 20 million PS4. Thus, the total supply exceeded 60 million consoles – that is the figure last year was predicted by Sony. The company plans to continue in the same pace and counting until next April to sell 18 million boxes of PlayStation 4. The latest console from Sony at odds as good as at the time the legendary PlayStation 2. The pace PS4 is risking to overtake the best selling console in history.
But not all units Sony was in the black. For example, the revenue Department responsible for film production, declined by $ 719 million compared to last fiscal year. Sony Pictures working on films 660 million dollars. The result could be more disastrous if not for the success of the film “Resident evil: the final Chapter” in the Chinese car.
