The Big Three All See Revenues Drop in 2009
Both Microsoft and Nintendo saw drops of around $200 million, while Sony's revenues were down by over $1 billion. Which sounds awful, but really isn't; it's just what happens when people finally stop buying PlayStation 2 software, so that day had to come sooner or later.
