report also gave some insight into the Consumer (Games to you and us) division.
"In the consumer business", it states, "While domestic sales were mostly firm thanks to streamlining the development by narrowing down the titles, overseas sales were weaker than expected following the adverse market condition, and also, the launch of some titles was postponed to the next fiscal year. As a result, the Group sold 6,090 thousand video game copies in the United States, 8,160 thousand copies in Europe and 2,470 thousand copies in Japan and other regions, for a total of 16,730 thousand copies."
