Why are you comparing revenue for one company to profits for the other two? You do know they are two vastly different things in terms of finance. And if MS gaming division did make “revenue” increase of 5.45B, it would still take them 13-14 years to recoup the money made from Activision investment, not including any inflation rate. Until the initial money is made back, it’s still on the books and then you can start to see what the real profit would look like.
Also, Nintendo would definitely be in the decline due to the switch being in the very late part of its life cycle.
As far as Sony is concerned, we know they are releasing the Pro this year if not next year. Now, in my humble opinion, they haven’t showed any first party games because they want to show the upgraded visuals/tech of running the games on Pro. So, if you don’t release any games, obviously people won’t buy anything and you are not going to make any money. That’s why I believe, again in my opinion, Sony made these third party deals with other developers. Also, canceling some of these GAAS titles definitely didn’t help them because they lost all that time and money.
