Capcom revises their strategy due to game cancellations but expects a net profit this year

Here’s some good news amid companies losing a substantial amount of money across the industry: Capcom expects to make money this past fiscal year, despite a few short-term losses they’ve had to endure here and there. They’ve also said that outsourcing game projects doesn’t appear to be working as well due to a drop in quality from developers that they’ve been hiring, so from here on out a larger chunk of their games will be developed internally. The actual profit number sits around ¥2.9bn– or $29.5M– and a lot of that is due to Resident Evil 5 slot machine it put out.

Wait, Capcom put out a Resident Evil 5 slot machine? What!?
