There are multiple re-org options ahead of them, including selling the PC division, selling TV division, or battling the huge pension liabilities they have. Their largest divisions are Insurance and Financial Services, and Film/Music. Further, despite the downgrade, analysts believe that Sony would not have trouble finding money with lenders due to the brand recognition and name value in Japan.

What's going to be left is they get out of consumer electronics like TV's and phones which are two areas they are struggling mightily with a bleak outlook on the horizon? Music/Film and PS? I don't think they have the 1st party game recognition and portable market to survive like Nintendo.
