Sega Sammy Holdings will be restructuring its SEGA consumer division in the wake of some disappointing financial results for the current fiscal year. The company hopes to rebound by implementing a couple of significant moves.

First, SEGA will be cutting down on the amount of niche IPs in favor of established franchises including Sonic the Hedgehog, Football Manager, Total War, and Aliens. It’s been confirmed that, sadly, some titles will be cancelled.

Andriasang also reports that there will be a “Streamlining of US and European organizations which will result in a smaller company positioned for sustained profitability.”

Nintendo Week comes to an end

Posted on 12 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments

After debuting on the Nintendo Channel over two years ago, Nintendo Week has finally come to an end.

In a rather surprising and immediate announcement, Gary announced his departure at the end of the latest episode. That was followed up with a string of text which states:

“Thanks for watching Nintendo Week! We’ve had a great time bringing you the latest news about Nintendo games and hardware, and we hope that you’ll keep playing Nintendo games!”

The Nintendo Show 3D will not be affected. It will continue to run on a biweekly basis on the eShop.
