As per the report, 17.3 million units in total have been shipped as of December 31, nearly three million fewer than the PlayStation 4 had managed at the equivalent point after its release.

The gaming division’s revenue was down 8 percent year on year to 813.3 billion yen, but operating profit rose 12.1 percent to 92.9 billion yen.

Sony’s crucial image sensor division had a good quarter, with sales increasing 22 percent year on year to 57.8 billion ($504 million).

Operating profit was up 26 percent to 13.3 billion yen ($116 million), though Sony attributes 12 billion yen of that to the weakening yen.

Sony said the revenue jump was thanks to higher sales of image sensors for smartphone cameras, a larger portion of which were premium products.

The movie division saw a huge increase in revenue, jumping 141 percent YoY to 461.2 billion yen ($4.02 billion).
