Marvelous lost 300 million yen in their gaming division last quarter.

①デジタルコンテンツ事業
当事業のコンシューマ部門においては、国内で2023年９月に発売した完全新作RPG『FREDERICA』の北米・欧州・Steam®版を同年10月３日より順次発売いたしました。また、Nintendo Switch TM向け完全新作ファッション＆コミュニケーションゲーム『ファッションドリーマー』を、2023年11月２日に国内・アジアで、同３日に北米・欧州で発売する等、複数の新作ゲームソフトを国内外で発売いたしました。しかしながら、第１四半期に発売した『LOOP8』の販売不振に加え、これらの新作タイトルの販売が想定を大幅に下回る推移となり、開発費を回収することができず損失を計上いたしました。オンライン部門においては、前年同期にリリースした『ドルフィンウェーブ』が、開始時の大幅な業績貢献に対する反動減があったものの、引き続き堅調に推移いたしました。また、『剣と魔法のログレス いにしえの女神』や『シノビマスター 閃乱カグラ NEW LINK』、『ブラウザ三国志』といった長期運営タイトルにおいては、経年により売上が減少したものの堅実に収益貢献いたしました。この結果、当事業の売上高は12,137百万円（前年同期比18.2％増）、セグメント損失は300百万円（前年同期はセグメント利益1,635百万円）となりました。

For those not aware, Marvelous is the owner of series like Story of Seasons (aka Harvest Moon) and Senran Kagura. They have recently been big supporters of adding body type and non-binary type shit to their games and completely stopped making sexy games like Senran Kagura, so I'm glad to see it hasn't been paying off for them.

Nice.
I hope they file bankruptcy soon.

 

[Zurathetix]

Good. Fuck nu-Marvelous. Like I said they never had consoomer slop level hits that get carried by name alone. I bet they still wont learn their lesson.

Well, what did they expect when all their products were made for niche group and now they went and piss them off with shitty censorship and policore nonsense? They would've gain steady sales maintaining customer's loyalty, but no, they had to try to go for "wider audience". Let their greed be their downfall.

Nice.

May I ask which chapter of hellsing was that? I never read the manga version.

Completely deserved. Cucked to China; cucked to Sony; cucked to Marxism. I just wish someone would buy Senran Kagura from them and restore it to its former glory.

This might explain why they might be rumored to bringing back Senran Kagura this year. It's the only thing that has sold well in their portfolio for the last 6 years. Also they did it to themselves for not listening to their core audiences in Japan and the West.

Man, I wish someone with a brain and money would just buy Honey Parade and the Senran Kagura IP, and get out of dodge.

That or more companies like Qureate exist and we can have more fanservice games for East and West.
