Posted on 9 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News, Wii U | 13 Comments
Despite a troubled development and a negative critical reception, Sonic Boom: Rise of Lyric for Wii U and Sonic Boom: Shattered Crystal for Nintendo 3DS have sold a combined 620 00 copies to date. This news comes from SEGA’s financial results briefing for the past fiscal year (2014-15, which ended on March 31st).
In the next fiscal year (April 1st, 2015 – March 31st, 2016) SEGA plans to release a total of 34 titles – 14 in Japan and 20 in the West. SEGA expects to sell 7 140 000 units in that period of time.

The next SEGA 3D Classic is launching next week, according to a listing on the eShop. 3D Thunder Blade should arrive on May 14 on $5.99. Given the release timing of previous SEGA 3D Classics, it’s likely coming out next Thursday in Europe as well.
View some screenshots from 3D Thunder Blade below.

SEGA won’t have a booth at E3 2015
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 11 Comments
SEGA will not have a booth at this year’s E3, the company confirmed to Game Informer. An official statement reads:
Over the next months, SEGA of America will be focusing on the restructure and relocation to Southern California, and we have decided to not attend E3 with our own booth this year,” a representative told us via email. “With the majority of our bigger titles launching later in 2015/2016, particularly those from our AAA studios Relic Entertainment, Sports Interactive and Creative Assembly, we are concentrating our efforts for some of these major announcements after our relocation. Instead, we will be collaborating with our various business partners for this year’s E3 show.
This shouldn’t have too big of an impact on Wii U and 3DS owners. The only upcoming Nintendo games SEGA has confirmed for North America and Europe are Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX (which will be out later this month) and a few 3D Classics. Still, it’s a tiny bit sad that SEGA won’t be appearing at E3!
SEGA open to creating more 3D Classics
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Screenshots | 8 Comments
SEGA recently announced three new 3D Classics. 3D Streets of Rage 2, 3D Gunstar Heroes, and 3D Sonic The Hedgehog 2 have been added to the latest wave rather than starting a new series of re-releases. While SEGA has no plans to produce a third wave at present, there’s definitely some interest there.
Famitsu recently spoke with SEGA’s Yosuke Okunari and M2’s Naoki Horii about the possibility of more titles. In response, the two said:
Yosuke Okunari (Sega Games): These games aren’t the start of a new series [of re-releases; rather, they’re the second wave of games within a series] so we have no plans for the future.
Naoki Horii (M2): None at all!
Okunari: These three titles were put out for download overseas simply as an extension [to the existing series]. This really is the end for the second wave [of Sega 3D Classics]. Of course we want to consider the development of a third wave based on the response to this second wave, but we have no plans at this point in time. We’ll look at the big picture, that is, we’ll look at the sales trends of the physical release of the Sega 3D Classics line that went on sale last year [in Japan] as well as how the upcoming three titles perform in the global market. We’re happy to do this indefinitely if sales are good.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
SEGA is working on a demo for Hatsume Miku: Project Mirai DX, which is due out in Japan on May 13.
The demo features touch and button modes. “LOL -lots of laugh-” (Music by KeN, Lyrics by Endcape) and “Senbonzakura” (Music and Lyrics by Kuruusa P (White Flame)) will be included as two select songs. Those who have save data from Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai 2 can import their username and “My Phrase”, level of friendship between characters, and more into the demo.
There’s no word yet on whether the Hatsune Miku: Project Mirai DX demo will be distributed in the west. We’re certainly hoping that it will be!
