Capcom made a profit , something which SEGA couldn't even with its digital sales, it's PC sales and all the other dept's you love to list ,  also Capcom got more revenue from games than SEGA . Watch Capcom post rather nice profit in the next quarter on the back of the new Monster Hunter alone . So sorry again you're very much wrong.

Wondering when you would rise up to show you're ugly head again. Don't you read? The consumer division was the one with ALL the profits. Capcom in their report had a fall in profits in their division.  But keep ignoring the truth..so spin the spin and downright lie in order to derail the threads eh..that's what you're good at.It won't change the facts and what everyone here knows the facts. You don't.

You act as if Sega posted a loss against all attempts and odds.
Sega only reported a loss this quarter because of the cost of dismantling their Phoenix SegaGaia Resort subsidiary. To top it off, that is a move in itself that will increase profits over long term.

YES. Again Capcom posted a profit , SEGA didn't even with the mighty digital division which you keep banging on about .  Capcom it's self will post a better 2nd quarter thanks the monster sales of the new Monster Hunter  .Looking at SEGA consumer revenue and sales its not that spectacular and Capcom got more sales and more revenue .


You're the one that always likes to bang on about the Bottom line after all.

Why don't you show us where the digital side didn't make a profit or that the consumer side didn't. Geez can't you stop trolling on something EVERYONE proved you wrong in the last topic?

Capcom Revenue and Profit Fall Due to Lack Of New Games
Resident Evil publisher reports sales drop of 51 percent while profit dips 39 percent.

Capcom today announced financial results for the quarter ended June 30, revealing net income decreased to ¥828 million ($8.4 million), down 37.3 percent year-over-year. Net sales also fell for the quarter, sliding 6.2 percent to ¥17.5 billion yen ($177.8 million)

Quote
the six months ended September 30, 2014, Sega's consumer business posted revenues of 48.6 billion yen ($436.1 million), up 10.3 percent year-over-year, and operating income of 939 million yen ($8.4 million), down 16.0 percent year-over-year.

So no Capcom profits still pale into nothing compared to Sega...especially in the consumer departments.

Capcom actually posted a profit ,that's something SEGA couldn't manage . I no doubt expect that Sega Sammy will be able to post a bigger profit overall for the final quarter. But unlike you make out Capcom is in profit  that's all .

You are seriously deluded and living in a fantasy land. Go home and leave us alone. There's no point continuing this since one person is correct and capcom who posted the results..the news media that showed the documents and everyone else is wrong.

Let's be civil though, guys. Remember board rules are no personal attack or name calling.In the end we're only disagreeing about video games and our hobbies here- as important as they are to us.

If you be more civil to Miyamoto.

Seems NeoGAF are claiming SEGA's downsizing from the news.

I don't fully understand these finances. So are SEGA reducing one or two of their departments or are they really restructuring their Video Game Department yet again?

Every news outlet I see tells us a different viewpoint on whether SEGA is doing great or horribly.

They aren't restructuring, it seems like a Nintendo fanboys dream for SEGA to be bought out considering the thread starter's subsequent posts.

Both sides of the company are in track to post operating profits, SEGA's consumer division is expected to post over 5 billion yen profit by the end of the fiscal year despite the incoming Phantasy Star Nova and Sonic Boom failures.

Any layoffs expected tho?

Restructuring is a much different thing than simply downsizing in most cases anyway

I'm not name calling or doing any personal attacks . Just stating Capcom posted a profit and SEGA didn't that's all . Joe just can't seem to deal with facts .

No SEGA isn't , but its clear it's becoming less and less a key player in the console business and that for me is a serious worry

Nothing that would effect us in the grand scheme of things I believe.

Reorganization into three business groups
The Group companies will be reorganized into three business groups by around April 2015.

1) Pachislot and pachinko machines business centering on Sammy Corporation
2) Entertainment contents business with SEGA CORPORATION’s network game business at its core
3) Resort business engaged in the development of hotels, golf courses, facility business and other businesses

Each business group will accelerate the decision-making process, streamline overlapping functions, build a system that will allow the appropriate injection of management resources, and enhance management efficiency by adapting to the changes in the business environment.

Most of the arcade teams will probably move into the mobile division if I had to hazard a guess after successes like Chain Chronicles and probably soon with the World's End Eclipse.

Good Good. Just as long as Sega Consumer teams don't get irrevocably neutered for succeeding again.
