In overseas markets, videogame software sales increased year on year as a result of favorable sales of titles such as “Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games,” which is themed on the Beijing Olympic Games. In Japan, however, sales decreased year on year, even though “Ryu Ga Gotoku Kenzan!,” the third title in the “Ryu Ga Gotoku” series achieved a measure of popularity. R&D costs increased year on year.



Around the Network

I know Sega didn't do so well last year (2007), but I had hoped that they atleast would make money for the fiscal year, since they released ALOT of games in Q1 2008 (Q4 fiscal year 2007).

Apparently it wasn't enough. It is a worrying sign that they seem to only make money from not-so-good-games such as M&S at the Olympic games.



Wow...I can't believe revenue in Japan is so low. No wondering SEGA is focusing on Western markets.



How can M&S not get them in the Green?!

 go FM, the football manager series is wiked, 837,000 copies sold is really good.



Impressive sales on the Wii, but I though 3rd party games don't sell on the Wii?

Mario & Sonic (Wii, DS) at 5.5 million! And that will only increase in August when the Olympics begin.



Hi there.

http://vgsales.wikia.com/wiki/Video_Game_Sales - A wiki for video game sales figures

w3stfa11 - cookingyourmama and I had a whole semantical debate about that, in a certain aspect, he was adamant in twisting that because it has Mario in the title it wasn't a real third party game.

Last I checked Sega had to pay to use mario >.> .

Anyway viper and him had a whole other thing about it's sales not being what it is due to it not being a 3rd party game.

I'm confused about my own explanation so I'll stop now.



I'm Unamerica and you can too.
