Nintendo is once again at the top when it comes to profits, earning approximately four billion dollars in 2022.

 

[Godot25]

Acti and EA are monsters considering they don't have 30% cut from 3rd party software like Nintendo/Sony/Xbox.

 

[Jaybe]

Did they also make this chart for revenue by company?

 

[akaFullmetal]

Where's Microsoft? Who made this? Sources?

If they did, Nintendo would be far, far from the top. But to be fair, games is all they do.

They do make a lot of money from games, tho! Iwata would be so proud. He used to openly pine for the days of 100 billion yen per year in profit again. Now they do more than that just in a single quarter.

 

[sandbood]

The graph missed take-two interactive with 474 million dollars.

microsoft?

isnt it a major game company or is it smaller?

capcom did worse than ubisoft? i call bullshit

It's hard to splice out the money made within just the Xbox business, is my guess for why it's omitted. But, this chart is likely just console gaming-specific. Either way, it's a bit of an odd chart.

Microsoft was too scared to release the earnings information of Xbox division.

The fiscal year doesn't end until March 31st. How does this chart exist? We won't know any of this information for fiscal 2022 until April or May. At most, all this chart could include are just three quarters.

 

[Mattyp]

This is the weirdest and poorest looking chart cobbled together I've ever seen with missing information, missing companies and not efy.

Just create a revenue chart ending 2022 greatest to worst next time.

Microsoft didn't disclose the information of Xbox division's profits.

You can check out the financial report of capcom and ubisoft for yourself lol.

This is CY2022 chart and not FY2022.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

This is CY2022 chart and not FY2022.

But... that's not how businesses report financial data. Everything is tallied on a fiscal basis. Why is calendar year significant? You would have to go in and manually splice out specific quarters, cut out quarters from the next year, and then add in quarters from the year before. That's odd

 

[Kilau]

Konami does fuck all and makes more profit than Ubi, lol

 

[SEGA_2012]

No SEGA

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

No SEGA

Does SEGA make money? Honest question. lol. I have no idea.

 

[lh032]

No SEGA

yuji naka makes bigger bucks than Sega.

 

[Astral Dog]

It's easier to make a comparison with western companies by using this method.

 

[ChorizoPicozo]

no MS and that Nintendo bar seems SUS.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

that Nintendo bar

Yeah... well, it's a bar, alright. Would like to know who made the chart, as there are a lot of discrepancies and inconsistencies.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

But most of these companies in the chart aren't western companies... LOL. You can't make a chart comparing annual profit when most of the companies in the chart still have to finish their fiscal Q4 and then record their year-end financials. Seems like this chart should be made in April or May, when all the data is available.

 

[SLB1904]

What a poorly made thread.

 

[Dr. Wilkinson]

What a poorly made thread.

*poorly made chart

 

[AJUMP23]

Nintendo should by Sony game division and finally release the Nintendo Playstation.

 

[sandbood]

No SEGA

We need to wait until 9th February for full CY2022 information.

 

[Ronin_7]

Where's Revenue? I want to see Revenue not profits.
