They don’t release financial statements, that 40% is entirely fabricated lol. Everything is estimates, it’s stated only about 100 times in the link.
Hardware has higher profit ratio, it’s not 40%. Most is 30% from game sales, but hardware is almost 100%. That average is not even an estimate, it’s completely made up dude. It’s not 40%, I was asking them a question so the would rethink or provide the source, but clearly people believe the fake data they presented.
There’s absolutely no way it’s only 40%. Games alone are 30% for third party, their own games is close to 100%. So those two alone average far over 40% and that’s not including hardware that’s almost solely profit.
Almost 100%? Are you saying it costs, quite literally, basically nothing to make hardware?
Source?
