Sure thing, let’s dive in—so, Capcom, you know, that big Japanese company everybody talks about, yeah, they just blurted out this massive number: ¥45.5 billion in net sales. That’s a lot, right? Anyway, it was just for the last three months ending in June. Seems like a lifetime ago, but what is time, really?
Now, why did they rake in so much cash? Well, turns out their Digital Contents thing—fancy way of saying “video games”—really blew up. I guess they shouted out to Devil May Cry 5, Resident Evil Village, you know, the usual suspects. Plus, there was some anime on Netflix? That probably helped. Why do I always get hooked on random animes? Like, seriously, what was I even talking about… oh right, sales!
It’s kind of wild, though. Devil May Cry 5 alone? Sold 10.5 million copies. And 1.7 million just in the last quarter. Meanwhile, Resident Evil Village and Resident Evil 4—yeah, they’re still going strong. Numbers, numbers—they’ve got Village at, like, 12.2 million? Whatever, I’ll believe it. Resident Evil 4’s sitting at 10.6 million. Oh, and Street Fighter 6 snagged 5 million, apparently Nintendo Switch 2 threw it a bone. Who would’ve thought?
Total sales rushed to 14.16 million units—up 48% from last year’s 9.53 million. I mean, didn’t they just sell a bazillion copies, like, the other day? It’s nuts! Also, their operating profit shot up—boom—increased by 90.8%. They landed at ¥24.6 billion. What can I even say? Business world’s a wild ride.
