Nintendo News | Majesco Loves Wii

Majesco must be happy. The publisher suffered a $16.2 million loss for the 3rd fiscal quarter last year, but they have posted a $4.4 million profit in this year's equivilant quarter. With this momentum, they have decided to re-establish their support of Nintendo's Wii, and are reportedly getting excited about the low development costs and the All Access Gaming strategy of Nintendo.

Majesco's interim executive officer Jesse Sutton had this to say:

"We remain focused on our strategy to publish value products and lower-cost games for handheld systems and make products with mass market appeal. Looking forward, we believe that Nintendo's new Wii console has excellent potential to capture the mass market gamer while remaining within our more conservative cost structure. As such, we are expanding our strategic focus to capitalize on the potential of this system, and currently have two Wii games in development. Going into the last quarter of fiscal 2006, we are looking to our holiday lineup to build momentum for 2007."

Bust-A-Move Revolution was announced at E3 earlier this year as an early 2007 Wii title, but as yet nothing of it has been shown. What else could Majesco have up their sleeve for the system, though? For now, they're choosing not to say...feel free to speculate!
