Marvelous games

Marvelous have shared their latest financial results, and gave an update on some of the games they released last year:

LOOP8 saw sluggish sales
Fashion Dreamer sold 500,000 units worldwide (with 60% of those sales outside Japan), which is less than what they were expecting
Frederica / Silent Hope also didn’t sell as much as the company expected.

Due to the disappointing sales of those games, development costs were not fully recovered and the Digital Content segment actually lost Marvelous money. As a result, the company had to lower forecast for current Fiscal Year, and the executives are taking a pay cut (-30% for the President and the CEO, and -12% for the full-time Directors).
