Title: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: ROJM on May 10, 2013, 06:58:16 am

Sega Sammy reported financial results for the fiscal year ending March 31 2013 today, noting a net profit of ¥33.5 billion, which converts to $331 million. The figure represents annual growth of 53.3 percent. However, the company's operating profit decreased year-on-year by 67.3 percent, down now to ¥19.1 billion, or $189 million.

While Sega Sammy made significant net profit, largely through gains on the sales of "investment securities" and transfers of employees' pension benefits, the company noted decreased demand for packaged games in light of global economics. Sega Sammy said it must adapt to a market leaning towards games on social networks and smartphones.

That decreased demand was coupled with a year of restructuring at Sega Sammy's US and European divisions. With less games coming out as a result, it's no surprise Sega Sammy saw decline in packaged software shipments, down to 10.8 million overall. They include 1.31 million units of the critically panned Aliens: Colonial Marines, as well as 1.36 million for Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed and 940,000 for Football Manager 2013. Meanwhile, Yakuza 5 shipped 590,000 units since its launch in Japan in December 2012.

Sega Sammy's biggest success gaming-wise looks to be Phantasy Star Online 2. The PC and Vita MMO has a subscription base of over 2.5 million now, and the company said revenue from in-game purchasable items "exceeded forecasted levels."

Sega Sammy forecasts it will ship 11 games on PC, 7 on Wii U, 7 on PS3, 6 on 3DS, 5 on Vita, 4 on Xbox 360, and 2 on PSP in the fiscal year ending March 31 2014 - of course there'll be some crossover there. The company estimates a 41 percent growth in net profit for the next fiscal year, up to ¥47 billion, or $464 million.

Update: Sports Interactive's Miles Jacobson tweets Football Manager 2013 has now passed the 1 million mark for sales, having done so five months earlier than FM2012 did.

Many implications from this, in the case of A:CM it poses several. Sonic ASR also indicates that this might me the most succesful non mario related sonic game in the third party sega era. and the PC trends is the most strongest of all in the consumer division. Wonder if COH can sell strong once its released.

I wasn't sure if those numbers included digital. But if they do then that fills in a few gaps for sure. I can see a few more vintage collection and heritage titles for sure

so if the new sonic game doesn't come on vita, which i kinda have my doubts it will, that means SEGA has lots of JP exclusive games planned for Vita, probably a lot of RPG's! just like with PSP

I think sonic racing transformed may keep some healthy sales if the wii u playerbase keeps growing. Wonder how much better transformed has done in comparison to the previous game within the same timespan. Also I wonder how they're japanese launch will be, cuz I kind of have the feeling the DLC characters for us are gonna be launch characters in the japan release. The reason why I think this is because hatsune miku and ryo hazuki won the survey. Would be amazing if they promoted that part in selling such an amazing game.

That's what mattered to me most. I really want sonic transformed to succeed because it's such a gem imo. Though all dislike of SEGA's decisions and mistakes with colonial marines, I hope they made back some of the money and have learned from some of the mistakes.

Was thinking the same thing.

However if they want sales to truely explode, they need to throw Sakura and Kazuma in there.

Lots of things to go through, cannot give my full thoughts since I am a bit busy but will quickly try to go with some rough guesses. Before I carry on, please note 1 sku is for a release in US/Europe/Asia. So Valkyria Chronicles would be 3 skus, Sonic & Allstars Racing Transformed would be 2 and Yakuza 5 would be 1;

Playstation 3 (1 sku between Apr - Sep) - Let's Make A... game (Slated for Autumn) and SEGA has a target of 150,000 units from it, roughly.

Playstation 3 (6 sku between Oct - Mar) I assume Sonic will take 3 skus as the series always receives an international release, let's say then that Miku might be the other 2 skus which is probably likely at this point. We have one sku left, which could be a Japan exclusive title indicating Yakuza. In this period SEGA expects to sell 1,170,000, which would seem conservative with the titles I've indicated.

NOTE: Alternatively, Miku could be Yakuza 5 for US/Euro... Pretty please? : (

Xbox360 (No sku between Apr - Sep, 4 sku between Oct - Mar) Again assuming that Sonic is the 3 skus, perhaps the single sku might be a console release in Japan of one of SEGA's arcade titles like Virtual On? In anycase with an estimation of about 690,000 units sold for the FY2014, its easy to estimate that at least 500,000 of those sales is from the new Sonic game.

Wii U (3 sku between Apr - Sep) no idea what this game can be at all but SEGA expects only sales of 170,000 units. Perhaps a late port of an international release? Fits with the 3 skus, it's a bit late now to announce a major new game and release it in September I think... The only series that could be announced by SEGA with relatively little fanfare to be me would be Monkey Ball.

Wii U (4 skus between Oct - Mar) 3 are no doubt once again, Sonic. But the single sku? Again could be a Japan only title. Expecting sales of 780,000, so either that one sku is a massive title for one region or SEGA expects a great chunk of the next Sonic game to sell a large amount of its sales to the Wii U fanbase.

PC (5 sku between Apr - Sep) Company of Heroes releases in Asia, so I'd imagine that takes 3 sku whilst the other 2 would belong to Rome II (Just announced to release in September recently) though I think expecting 860,000 units is really really conservative by SEGA considering the sales history of both Company of Heroes and Total War. Perhaps an indication they expect most sales to go to digital stores instead of packaged goods?

PC (6 sku between Oct - Mar) Football Manager 2014 will no doubt be 2 more sku, while the other 4 sku, perhaps 2 could be Creative Assembly's Warhammer title to be released between Jan - Mar 2014?

SEGA expects to sell 1,720,000 on PC which again seems low to me.

3DS (0 sku between Apr - Sep, 6 sku between Oct - Mar) Again, if we believe Sonic will have a major title out, that would leave us with 3 more skus. 1 is most certainly Project Mirai 2 so that leaves us with a further 2 sku and I cannot fathom what they would be, perhaps a Puyo game? SEGA expects 980,000 of sales from the 3DS, I'd expect about 70% to be solely from Sonic.

PSV (1 sku between Apr - Sep) Let's Make A... Vita version and SEGA expects that title to sell 40,000 units.

PSV (4 sku between Oct - Mar) If again we presume Sonic takes 3 sku, we are again left with 1
sku which can be anyone of the following games in Japan; A new Miku title, PSO2 Ep. II for Vita or a Samurai and Dragon game. Expecting to sell 610,000 though would make a new Miku title more likely if you ask me.

PSP (2 sku between Apr - Mar) considering the 2 sku are in both Q1-2 and Q1-4 and predicting sales of an additional 20,000 by SEGA, I'd imagine these are late Q2 releases. Strangely it won't be Football Manager (Which had PSP releases every year since the PSP was announced) so no idea what this title can be.

Actually, ignore me talking about a Japanese Yakuza title for PS3, forgot Nagoshi has already indicated that the team is working on a Playstation 4 game (Though he never did confirm if it was Yakuza or not... Just trolled Shenmue fans by saying "We are working on a Playstation 4 game and it is NOT Shenmue!" LOL!)

I'm kinda weary of SEGA betting on the Wii-U as of right now. 3 possible exclusive titles...
I mean they already shoved the Aliens: CM WiiU port under the rug, so having 7 titles, is kinda risky seeing how the next-gen consoles are right around the corner.

Just to be sure, SKU's are physical games, correct? Digital-only titles don't count?
If so, I can only assume SEGA's got at least 4 possible multi-platform titles, hopefuly they'll show 'em at E3. We don't have any major info, safe to say that Sonic 2013 is going to be one of those titles.

But like I said before, the Wii U feels like developer poison, right now...
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: CrazyT on May 10, 2013, 06:38:38 pm
It's strange that there's 0 titles shown for next gen other than Wii U. Could this be cause they're not officially launched yet or they simply decided not to develop a lot for next gen yet? Anyway it does show that SEGA despite everything, still has an amazing partnership with nintendo. Ever since the console wars between the 2 died, they have been very close. I have grown to really like nintendo's legacy and I feel despite both have been in a competition, they have always both been very good for the industry.

I wonder if SEGA's got any exclusives for the wii u

It is not 7 titles, it is 7 SKU. 1 sku is counted for one of the following; Americas release, Europe release, Asia release. So if we guess the next mainline Sonic game gets a release on the Wii U, it will get 3 SKU.

That leaves us with 4 SKU. Either they would be two Western bound SKU (US + Europe) or 1 internal release and one title exclusive to 1 region.

And yes, SKU is physical release, not digital release.

At least four games(that we know of) are multi-platform, but honestly, the Wii U is not going to be another Wii, so I'm not expecting Mario & Sonic to move those huge numbers. The 3DS as of, right now, is Nintendo's more viable machine on the market.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: Aki-at on May 10, 2013, 06:50:30 pm
Just realised one of the PSP titles is 7th Dragon 2020-ii, so that just leaves one more SKU!

What partnership? One major Sonic game takes 3 sku and we are left with 4 sku, indicating only two more titles for the Wii U, they have a closer relationship with Sony at this point.

Without being officially announced, Nagoshi's team is working on a Playstation 4 title and Creative Assembly are making an Alien title for Xbox next generation and Playstation 4. No doubt we will be getting some cross-generation games too indicated in their fiscal report;

Quote
We also intend to make our game software compatible with the next-generation game machines, which are due to be launched.

So I would imagine that would go for major multiplatform titles like Sonic.

I was looking at the numbers: 7 SKUs for Wii, 7 PS3 and 4 Xbox 360 titles...

So I assumed that, since SEGA hasn't released an Xbox 360-only title in years, I assumed that the 4 SKUs that are coming out for the Xbox 360 might be multiplatform titles.

Nah Max, you are looking at it wrong.

The 4 SKU on the Xbox 360 can be made up of; New Sonic (US release) New Sonic (EU release) New Sonic (Asia release) + 1 more sku. 1 Sku is always given to a SEGA retail title if it is released in one of the three regions, so for example, Yakuza 5 has 1 sku (Asia) whilst Aliens 360 has 2 sku (EU + US) and Binary Domain has 3 sku (Asia + EU + US)

Castle of Illusion is the big Summer title, as of right now.

I mean, I really wanna know, why are people convinced that its one SKU per game, covering all regions. Apparently NeoGAF (the infallible gods of the internet) claim it isn't a SKU per region. 7 Wii U games between now and March? What?

Post by: Aki-at on May 11, 2013, 04:24:04 pm
I did not think I needed to go on further about this...

If you go to page 5 of SEGA Appendix for the prior fiscal year go to page 5. There check the BREAKDOWN OF REGION, notice Japan/Other is 10 titles (13 sku) US is 8 (18 sku) and Europe is 7 (18 sku) add them all up and what do we get? 25 titles (With 49 sku)

Now go to FY ENDED 2013 table, go to the very bottom and notice is says 49 sku. So yes, SEGA counts first of all, the amount of ports the title has, then the region it was released.

Thanks bro. I mean, I dpn't want to argue with people. I thought we were just stating the facts. And there is no way consoles are getting that many packaged SEGA titles. If they did release that many, they'd be going against what they were saying about scaling back.

I hear you bro, it seems a lot of people just overlook a few things. I have seen people mention Project Mirai and R Thief indicating SEGA's 3DS sku total is incorrect/points to total titles rather then total titles x region releases, however;

- Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai was released last year in March, but the fiscal year begins in April. So it is part of fiscal year 2012, not fiscal year 2013.
- Rhythm Thief has only 1 sku instead of 2 because SEGA only published the title in the US. Nintendo was the publisher in Europe.

So Rhythm Thief has 1 sku whilst Sonic & Allstars Racing Transformed 3DS has 2 sku (US and Europe release) and there you have the mystery of the 3DS sku solved.

Given the franchises SEGA west is focusing on, I think the SKUs line up. Seems all the IPs are accounted for. Really hoping war hammer is a part of the PC lineup, though it may be too early. New Sonic is pretty much confirmed, really hope it hits 3ds and current and next gen platforms. Though ps3, ps4, 360,720, wii u, vita, 3ds might be a bit much. Perhaps it'll be wii u, 360 and ps3 only.

Hedgehog Engine was built with 360 as the main platform. Sonic Team has always had trouble with CELL. PS4 and XBOX 8 are x86 just like PC. so if there is a PC version, then there can easily be a next gen version. The versions to be worried about would be the PS3 and Wii u versions, Sonic Team really seems to have lots of trouble with the Hedgehog Engine. You see how western devs are with the Wii u, and they are competent coders, now imagine Sonic Team, with the CPU heavy Hedgehog Engine, when Wii u has a worse CPU then 360. Too bad Hashimoto isn't there to help fix his mess :P

I mean don't get me wrong, i love the way hedgehog engine games look, but it's obvious the internal code is a mess, the engine has framerate issues, even on super powered PC's!

Post by: Aki-at on May 13, 2013, 06:26:49 am
So there are a few things I have been thinking about. Speculation and note time begins!

- The low PC sales of Rome II and Company of Heroes 2 put its too rest that SEGA counts digital sales in their reports when speaking of shipment figures, they do not.

- What is the mysterious Wii U title to be released before September ends? At 170,000 units predicted, I cannot think this can be a major title(s) and 3 skus fit perfectly with a global launch. But I could only see a late port being worth the effort, so perhaps a Wii U port of Bayonetta?

- Notice though that by the end of the year, the Playstation 3, Wii U, PSVita and Xbox360 have exactly 1 sku left assuming the new Sonic is the title with 3 sku, so perhaps this is not a entry in the Yakuza series or an arcade title ported, but a major title that will be released in Japan sometime in Q3-4 and then brought here in Q1-2 next fiscal year?

- Europe/America will only receive 7 titles each. Sticking with Europe, the following are sure to be coming here;

Company of Heroes 2, Football Manager, Total War: Rome II, Next Sonic (PS3, 360, Wii U, PC, Vita, 3DS)

That gives us 4 titles with 9 sku. Europe is set to have 7 titles with 13 sku. So we are left with 3 more titles and 4 more sku. A strong indication we will be getting a few platform exclusive titles. So 2 exclusives + a 360/PS3 game.

- Interesting enough, whilst America has the same number of titles (7) they have one less sku (12) perhaps Football Manager might have that PSP release after all!

That's all I got so far.

Very good guesses, I was thinking the same thing in regards to a JP title that will get a western release later on. Hope thats true, because I'm in need of some SoJ games.

Typical. Since many people don't believe me about the basis against sega that the games media have i hope people around here have noticed that many of the news sites reporting on this news keep focusing on the sales drop mentioned in the report leading to anyone not familiar on stock reports and its nature to believe that Sega has failed yet again and that they are  in more trouble when in fact they are not. 
Eurogamer, gamasutra Polygon and develop and various others are harping on about it. Even when Sega do well people will try to find a way to ruin the parade.

It's hard to tell since digital releases are not included in SKUs.

Anyway the last PSP game has been revealed! As expected a Japan only title. The PSP entry of the J-League series (Not like the PS3/Vita ver that's going to be released)

J-League Pro Soccer Club o Tsukurou! 8 Euro Plus - http://www.sakatsuku.com/8/

With 7th Dragon crossing the 100,000+ sales mark and with them needing to meet their 180,000 target for PSP titles by Q2, I think we can guess they will comfortably meet that target.

Yeah but they also measure titles individually. 7th Dragon has to cross a certain number of sales to make any money on top of the budget invested in the title. Sega doesn't really need the sales of 7th Dragon to accomplish the PSP target sales date because they distribute so many PSP games from smaller companies anyway that it will accomplish that

The press kit implied that Nintendo has complete exclusivity to the Sonic series for 3 games so at this point seems unlikely.

A Japanese twitter account was opened today, and it is claiming that is an official account of Space Channel 5. And today was the birthday of Tetsuya Mizuguchi.

I went to check out what's going on, and i find a Japanese person, Yumiko Miyabe. Was the character design of Ulala. People are sending lots of tweets to this person and the answer is always: "send this to SEGA" and a link to SEGA's email.

My question is: Is SEGA planning something with SC5 or is just the person who worked on the games trying to make people to send email and support a new entry of the series?

Time will tell. Maybe SEGA will make a kinect SC5 game lol.

Mario and Sonic is usually published by Nintendo in Japan, and now also in Europe, so Wii U had 3 SKUs and 3DS has 2 SKUs unaccounted for.

Maybe SEGA is publishing Project X Zone in the west?

I'm also willing to bet that PS3/360 SKUs are including Xbox One/PS4 launch titles.

I was unsure if Mario & Sonic was published by Nintendo or not and also do not know if we are getting a 3DS version of the title.

As for including PS4/Xbox One titles, they would only include the cross-generation titles.

It was in Japan, everywhere else Sega published it, so it counts. But I must say that these three exclusive nintendo titles are more likely to be Sonic solo games and not Sonic with anybody else. Sand M wont count as part of this new exclusive deal because they were exclusive to Nintendo anyway and isn't considered to be part of the main sonic series.

Well its not true. Mario is already an exclusive character belonging to Nintendo so i can't see how that game can be part of any deal sega made with Nintendo. Really Nintendo is paying for two titles if that's the case.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: nuckles87 on June 06, 2013, 11:13:44 am
....it is true. It was confirmed by SEGA. It's been common knowledge for weeks now that we know of two of the exclusive games, and that one of those games is Mario & Sonic. Whatever logic you use to say it isn't true doesn't change the fact that, according to SEGA, it is.

And yeah, this is essentially a two game deal. They are just calling it a three game deal because Mario and Sonic is coming out during it.

Well if you actually saw my original post i said that statement before it was ever confirmed and you decided to make an issue of it. And the reason i'm saying it doesn't smell right, is the fact that nintendo owns mario anyway which leads to the two game deal as you agreed with. Now either the sega rep has got it wrong(which won't be the first time) or Sega has hoodwinked Nintendo pretty good. Which i find hard to believe but if so really shows how desperate nintendo wants Sonic as an exclusive. I wont believe it until i see a proper confirmation instead of a little tweet.Until then time will tell.

Post by: nuckles87 on June 06, 2013, 02:36:31 pm
Oh yeah, didn't see it was May 23rd. Sorry about that!

In any case, it IS true. SEGA has had more then enough time to correct it, and it's been said repeatedly at this point that we already know about two games. Hell, that link i gave you had Kotaku confirming it directly from SEGA. It wasn't just a little tweet.

Well, believe what you want. You'll see soon enough I guess.

I doubt Nintendo was "hoodwinked". Nintendo will have known about the production of Mario & Sonic 2014 since the beginning. This is just being sold as a "three game deal" by PR because Mario and Sonic happens to be coming out at the same time SEGA is giving Nintendo two exclusive Sonics.

Regardless, we don't really know much about this deal, so there is not much more to say

Post by: Radrappy on June 07, 2013, 03:27:24 am
It is a little strange that M&S is part of this "exclusive" deal because naturally a game starring mario wouldn't em. . . show up on any other console.

It's probably as Nuckles is suggesting, that the "3 exclusive titles partnership" is to make it more of a PR event.  After all the number 3 is much more exciting than 2.

Exactly. Like i said i'll beleive it until someone more reputable than Kotaku and a sega rep says it. How can Mario be part of any exclusivity deal for Sonic? That doesn't make sense and its not the way Nintendo works. Besides Sonic and Mario is essentially its own series. Also from what i understand the next new sonic game after SLW is coming out next year,when the contract ties sonic to nintendo for three years. So were still going to see sonic appear in two titles next year on Nintendo because of the olympic tie in. So that's three titles within 17 months.

Sega hasn't said what games will be released under the deal apart from LW. Everything reported thus far has really been speculation. Nintendo's press release also didn't confirm that S+M was part of the deal,only that it will be shown at E3.

Quote
The next title in SEGA’s Sonic the Hedgehog franchise will be exclusive to Nintendo's Wii U home console and Nintendo 3DS portable system. Nintendo Global President Satoru Iwata announced the details of a new partnership with SEGA during a new Nintendo Direct video announcement today. Sonic Lost World is a new action platforming game, and more information about it will be announced before the E3 2013 video game trade show begins on June 11.

The Nintendo Direct also announced Mario & Sonic at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games for Wii U, and revealed that additional SEGA Game Gear games would be coming to the Virtual Console service for Nintendo 3DS. Outside of SEGA news, Nintendo announced that select Wii U games featured at E3 2013 will soon be playable at participating Best Buy stores, the launch date for New Super Luigi U, new Pikmin 3 game details and additional information about a variety of previously announced Wii U and Nintendo 3DS games.

"The onetime rivalry between Mario and Sonic has grown into a friendship that has never been closer," said Nintendo of America President and COO Reggie Fils-Aime. "These announcements in conjunction with SEGA demonstrate the commitment we have to bringing great games to the Wii U platform, and set the stage for our upcoming announcements at E3."

The description concerning M+S seems to be seperate from the deal that they are talking about. But again we shall see.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: Aki-at on July 10, 2013, 05:14:14 am
So a few more games where announced since I last made my updates;

11 PC Sku: Company of Heroes 2 (2 sku) Rome II (2 sku) Football Manager 2014 (2 sku)
Potential 5 PC sku titles: Warhammer Fantasy (2 sku) and Alien (2 sku)

7 Wii U Sku: Sonic: Lost World (2 sku) Ryu Ga Gotoku 1&2 HD (1 sku) Mario & Sonic at the 2014 Sochi Games (1 sku)
Potential 2 Wii U sku titles: Yakuza 1&2 HD for the West? Mario & Sonic at the 2014 Sochi Games (1 sku)

7 PS3 sku - Sakatsuku 8 (1 sku) Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f (1 sku) Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f 2 (1 sku)
Potential 4 PS3 sku: Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f 2 Western release (1/2 sku)

6 3DS sku - Sonic: Lost World (2 sku) Project Mirai 2 (1 sku) Hero Bank (1 sku)
Potential 2 3DS sku: Mario & Sonic at the 2014 Sochi Games (2 sku) or Hero Bank Western release.

5 Vita sku: Sakatsuku 8 (1 sku) Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f 2 (1 sku)
Potential 3 Vita sku: PSO2 Western release (2 sku) PSO2Ep.II (1 sku)

4 Xbox 360 sku: Absolutely no idea what this could be, we are looking at potentially 2 titles here.

2 Playstation Portable sku - 7th Dragon 2020-ii (1 sku) and Sakatsuku Euro+ (1 sku)

Should note Project 575 did not turn out to be a Miku game with SEGA planning to formally announce the title next week on the 18th July. From the list of consoles, most likely either Playstation 3 or the PC will be announced with something relevant to most people here.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: inthesky on July 10, 2013, 04:16:53 pm
Project 575 must be the rhythm game that Sega was (is?) hiring for.

I am surprised that it apparently isn't a Miku game. I'm not all that familiar with Vocaloids but the voices and character silhouettes reminded me of them.

Thanks for the update. The unannounced SKU's give me some anticipation!

Project 575 formally announced, dancing rhythm game for Playstation Vita and iOS starring school girls, set for release in 2014.

http://www.famitsu.com/news/201307/18036827.html

That now leaves us with only two more Vita skus and outside of being Project Diva f 2 Western localisation, it's probably going to be some Japan exclusive game.

ROME 2 is going to be HUGE for SEGA this year.

It's been hanging on the Top 10 Best Sellers on Steam for a long time now, even though its more than a month away from release.

And its priced at $60... Wow.

Persona sells well , Sega already has a good relationship with them, and it'd be a way to hire some veteran people to localize SoJ stuff.

You gotta spend money to make money.

I say it's a good investment if they actually continue to invest after they buy, and Sega has been pretty solid at that thus far.

Some quick bits on information.

- As noted the 380,000 units sold for Company of Heroes 2 is only during a five day period, however please note this DOES NOT include digital sales. The title more than likely did way over 500,000 units.
- Sonic & Allstars Racing Transformed did 310,000 units of sales on the Wii U and 190,000 units for the Nintendo 3DS. Subtracting that from the total sales of the title (1.36 million) we are left with 860,000 sold between the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and Playstation Vita.
- SEGA expects Hatsune Miku: Project Diva f to sell 150,000 units in the US alone for the period Jul - Sep. As the title is a digital title, they did not list how much they expected it to do in Europe.
- For the first time, SEGA recorded more sales in their digital segment (8.2 billion yen) than they did in their package sales segment (7.6 billion yen)
- SEGA expects Rome 2: Total War to sell 480,000 units for the period of Jul - Sep. It should be noted this is only sales of packaged units.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: Nameless 24 on August 12, 2013, 02:58:17 pm
Regarding Transformed. Would that include the PC/Steam versions of the game or are they separate?

Would the total also be wrong since the sales of the game on Steam as well?

I really wish we knew Vita numbers....I bought it day one, but I doubt it made a dent vs the other versions...being an optimist I would say 50,000 at most.
Title: Re: Sega fiscal report good news very good news...
Post by: Pao on August 12, 2013, 04:21:37 pm
^ According to Aki, digital sales are excluded... So I guess the PC ver. of Transformed is not counted in the data above since its Steam exclusive (AFAIK)

I can see ROME 2 doing more than 1.5 million in its first month. [Retail + Digital]

That came out last fiscal year.

I believe all Vita skus are accounted for, unless Football Manager 2014 Classic isn't getting a N America release (Which is possible)
