Summary of game-related companies' financial results for October 2017

This is Nakauchi from the technical sales department

The announcement of financial results for the July-September period began in October

The company I'm personally paying attention to this time is, first and foremost, Nintendo .
Nintendo Switch and smartphone games are doing well, with sales up an astounding 173.4% year-on-year.
Since the Nintendo Switch was released on March 3rd, its stock price has also been on the rise.

==============================

Nintendo Switch

  • Hardware sales: 4.89 million units
  • Software sales: 22.02 million units

Download Business

Sales: 22.8 billion yen (55% increase from the same period last year)

Smart device business (Super Mario Run, Fire Emblem Heroes)

Sales: 17.9 billion yen (up 426% from the same period last year)

==============================

Gree, which revised its earnings forecast upward on October 2nd, also saw an increase in revenue and profits, with "Another Eden: The Cat Beyond Time and Space" (Wright Flyer), "SINoALICE" (PokeLab), and "Senki Zesshō Symphogear XD UNLIMITED" (PokeLab) contributing to its success.

Drecom significantly increased sales through a strategy focusing on IP games, but profits were down 54.0% year-on-year due to the impact of advertising costs for new titles.

The figures for each company are as follows:
