  • Sega Looking to Other Ventures

    Sega, naturally, is looking at new ways to handle their expertise. From Gaming Age:

    Sega is looking towards non-game areas to boost profitability. The new strategy should help the company spread its wings to gain revenue on top of traditional videogame sales.

    Munehiro Umemura, a general manager for Sega’s future entertainment division, told a news conference that Sega’s computer graphics technology and know-how in content development and in managing arcade facilities should present opportunities.

    Non-game ventures include educational software that uses computer graphics, and training software such as computer simulations of earthquakes. The new businesses are expected to make up more than 10% of sales in the next five years.
