what's keeping them alive?
>>745959760Persona been considered the king of jrpgs.
Total War DLC

>>745960023Hasn't every shartlus game since Vengeance flopped though? And that's only because the bar is on the floor for SMT.
Microsoft and Persona
>>745959760People like me
Trannies and nostalgic millennials who can't grow up
>>745961171>Kekmo over Bamco and SqueenixThis graph is wrong and retarded
They aren't in the console market anymore. There's not a lot keeping them from going under. They got shit like sonic and persona.
MeYou're welcome nigger
>>745961782>keeping them from going underI mean making them go under
>>745959760The contract sonic team did with kyubey.If they do a game with sonic, it will sell well regardless of anything, but they're forced to do new sonic games.Same shit as gamefreak.
>>745959760Football Manager
>>745961691Koei is pretty much Nintendo lite
>>745959760
>>745960089More specifically, Total War Warhammer. Historyfags aren't buying shit lmao
>>745959760>oy vey
>>745962920>mining as a tradehaha yea—
>>745961171Surprised that Konami has that much money over Sega.Mesugaki games are THAT profitable?
>>745959760Fatlus and Sonic
Unironically Sammy>Sammy Corporation is a Japanese developer and retailer of video game and gambling products and subsidiary of Sega Sammy Holdings, headquartered in Shinagawa, Tokyo. Sammy manufactures pachinko and pachislot machines
>>745959760sanic and persoyna
>>745962993Konami owns Yugioh and its the top 3 TCG in the world
Persona
https://www.sega.co.jp/en/release/211101_1.htmlHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>745963209Think of how fortunate SEGA was to be bought by a Pachinko company that didn't want to milk it dry like what happened to SNK or get bought by Microsoft and discarded into the background.
>>745963401ruined
>>745959760fatlus and fursona, which is beyond pathetic, a sega has been reduced to being the publusher of a shitter visual novel dating sim series, absolutely abysmal end
Yakuza fujobux
>>745960023>fursona>jrpgpick one and only one
>>745962993Bro, konami makes shitloads of slot machines, and they are beasts at japanese pachinko market.Plus, they own the yugioh card game.
Pachinko.
>>745963641>>745963951Pa-WHAT-o?
Who cares, they're only allowed to die after they release VF6.
Anything good on the sale?
>>745961171Its interesting that Sega didn't benefit from the covid bump much or at all.I think whats happening is that they dont have any games with grindy online multiplayer that are very successful. capcom has monster hunter, SE has XIV, Bamco has Elden Ring. I'm not sure how Koei is surging other than that they can pump out games like no tomorrow
>>745959760Sonic and Miku.
>>745964128Theyre definitely aware, hence that original showcase where they went all in on "remember all those classic games you love? Were bringing them all back as live service multiplayer games"
>>745959760Low interest rates.
>>745964128I think Koei has budget/return figured out down to an art. That and all the third party stuff they pick up.
>>745964560How antisemitic of them
Atlus and the RGG franchise
>>745959760>oy veying intensifiescontext for picrel: in case you dont know the dark-haired chars in the valkyria chronicles universe are the you-know-who. the snippet of conversation refers to the irl myth that the crooked noses were forced into finance & usury bc all other occupations were barred for them. this dialogue enforced this ancient lie by making it seem as though the dark-hairs just have the natural ability to recognize precious items with certainty, like its some talent they possess that predisposes them for jobs that have to do with jewelry & the like, not the fact that they are greedy & just pick the professions that makes them most shekels in the shortest amount of time—>huh i never though of that, but i guess you are right, i *am* good a sniffing out valuables—
>>745959760Merchandising! Merchandising!
>>745959760Sega survives and thrives as a major multi-platform publisher by leaning on its iconic mascot Sonic the Hedgehog, steady global PC and console game releases, arcade operations in Japan, and lucrative multimedia expansions like the Sonic the Hedgehog feature films.
>>745959760Sonic, Persona and Total War are still really popular on the vidya side of things. They also probably run some gacha/pachinko slop in Japan nobody here has heard about so I guess that's it.
>>745964983Thank you ChatGPT. Where can I find Sonic the Hedgehog fart porn?
>>745964501>>745964128I fucking hate live service slop.
