Gotta do what you gotta do, I guess. Nintendo's doomed, but they plan on doing M&As, not cutting partnerships/sources, unlike Sony, who's somehow not doomed.
The Nikkei is reporting that Sony will be cutting down three-quarters
of its parts suppliers in order to speed up the development of its
electronics products.
Around 1,000 firms currently supply Sony with parts for their
electronics. In order to save money, Sony will be cutting that list down
to 250 major suppliers worldwide.
Sony has spent around 2 trillion yen ($19.5 billion) a year on
electronic parts. While Samsung and Apple spend more than double that,
they sell far more units than Sony does when it comes to electronics.
In order for Sony to speed up production and increase profit margins,
they have decided to cut 750 suppliers while forming “strategic
partnerships” with innovative suppliers.
