Sega to acquire Angry Birds Developer Rovio

[x2y]

Rovio ain’t it anymore. Sega overpaid

This is what I am thinking.

sega got a billy to drop on slingshots

but wont compete in a market

Yakuza, Persona, Hatsune Miku, Bayonetta, SMT, Phantasy Star, even Streets of Rage made a strong comeback

Consider me corrected I forgot about those games...

You forgot Sonic Frontiers

The bigger shock here is that Sega has 1 billion

Rovio ain’t it anymore. Sega overpaid

They made money on their angry birds movie fwiw

Between that and angry birds permanent relevance in the smartphone game there's money to be made if sega plays it right

This would have been a great move in 2010.

Sega just released a yakuza game how are they dead?
And don't you still play on a ps4 which is a dead console?

They also own Atlus, and Persona pretty popular these days.

The bigger shock here is that Sega has 1 billion

Hasn't there revenue been almost 2.3 billion a year for a decade?

 

[Rice N Beans]

Unless there is something we don't know, this is not a good acquisition.

Can't wait till MS are laughed out the boardroom like when they approached Nintendo

A billion yen is 7.5 million USD
