How are they losing money if net assets are near record highs, as are cash balances and they have made a profit every year for 11 years?
thats not what the vote means.
Its a pure greed vote by shareholders.
see my and NikkoM response above.

They have been losing money for years, and a crap ton of it at that. Capcom pumped cash in to 5 cancelled Megaman games (all within the past 14 years), and not just a little bit of money either. They also stayed away from HD development because it's too expensive. Which according to my friend who knows a lot about the Monster Hunter series "MH isn't on sony anymore because capcom didn't want to pay them more money to fix graphics cuz capcom is lazy." Pretty much shows how much Capcom actually cares about it's franchises. Without Microsoft you wouldnt have seen Dead Rising 3, without Nintendo, Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate wouldn't make it's trip around the world. Pretty much Capcom is a prostitute, once you give it money, it'll do whatever you want.

Yet they have made a profit for every one of the last 10 years and have near record net assets and cash......
Did you miss the bit where I said this? I'm not making it up or guessing, its from the accounts.

Well I guess you don't do financial fact checking then?
The last time they even made even a record was 2011: http://www.shacknews.com/article/68358/capcom-gets-46-revenue-bump
You said for the last 10 years? 4/5 of those Megaman games drained a lot of cash. Then, this last year: http://gaminrealm.com/2013/09/10/capcom-152-mil-bank/
You are telling me that they have all the money in the world to create more AAA titles than anyone else? Take the blindfold off, they need to make money. They have been losing money, and consistantly been making stupid financial decisions. That cash on hand used to be much greater than it was last year.
