Behold the combined might of mammaries and rich, creamy vanilla!
Japanese media powerhouse Marvelous AQL was expecting a net loss of 185 million yen (over $2.4 million) for the first six months of its fiscal year. However, it looks like the company actually experienced a netgainof 192 million yen (over $2.5 million). The $5 million difference is thanks primarily to strong sales booby ninja schoolgirl gameSenran Kaguraon 3DS and hand-drawn Vanillaware RPGGrand Knights Historyon PSP. As a result, Marvelous has revised its full-year forecast — instead of a net income of 180 million yen (over $2.3 million), it expects a whopping3.14 billion yen(over $41.4 million)!
I love it when promising-looking games are rewarded with strong sales, don’t you? It’s the kind of performance that leads tolocalizationannouncements, wouldn’t you say? We already know thatGrand Knights Historywill arrivethis winteron our shores, so I just hope this news is the pushSenran Kaguraneeds to make the trek across the Pacific.
