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.

... he just told you they made profit every year for 11 years. How does that translate into "they have been losing money for years".
|
He told me nothing, what he's been saying is not a comparison of what they have and what they had. I said for the past 14 years they have been losing money. You can still lose money and make a profit. Sony has proved this for the past 3 or 4 years.

I'm sorry what?
Besides he didn't only tell you that they were posting a profit but also that their net assets and cash situation improved.
As for sony, iirc they only reportet a profit for 1 year during the last 5 or so years and that was the year they sold their buildings. And considering campcoms operating income has been positive for the last 10 years (unlike sony's) they don't need to resort to that.
