PSVR Already Selling At A Profit

[GribbleGrunger]

Released today, Sony is already selling its PlayStation VR unit at a profit, according to Sony Interactive Entertainment President Shawn Layden.
 
 "We're making money on the VR console," Layden told Polygon, though he didn't elaborate much further. Similarly, the PlayStation 4 was profitable for Sony less than a year after its release in 2013.

That's good. I'd still like the unit to be cheaper. I want more people on board so games keep getting made.

I really like how a lot of people are posting this like it's new news.  

Sony: PSVR not sold at a loss - NeoGAF

We clarified that Boyes wasn't talking about making money from the whole VR ecosystem. He was, in fact, directly referring to the hardware being sold in the black.
 "Every device we've sold since PlayStation 4 has been in the black," Boyes confirmed. This also gives Sony room to bundle other components, like Move and Camera, in the holiday season when PlayStation VR launches in October at $399.
 Boyes believes that in the VR race, there is also a last-mover advantage which Sony can take advantage of. "There's an advantage on both sides," he explains. "Being the first one out there, the cutting edge is great. Watching how the market evolves and changes and what works and doesn't is helpful."
 Sony will have approximately six months to make minute adjustments to its marketing strategy before PSVR launches. It will benefit from Oculus and HTC making the case for VR as a whole, before it markets a specific, more affordable product to people who may be more accepting of VR.

 

Rest at link.
 I'm expecting some good bundles this holiday season.

It's great to see.  Say it's being sold at a $30 profit so all costs add up to $370. After ramping up production to much higher levels and developing more cost effective measures I could see this thing retailing for $299 in a year.

Hopefully it sells well in the meantime to make that possible.

The best sign of Sony being ok with PC support.

Come on PC drivers!
