The reasons the company gives
The company's own explanation, not something inferred from the numbers.Improved profitability in the Digital Entertainment business. In the Digital Entertainment business, sales of new and catalog HD game titles, diversification of payment methods for smart devices, PC browsers and other platforms, and optimization of operating costs were identified as factors driving higher profit. Conversely, the negative impact of the timing of MMO expansion pack launches and lower sales on smart devices, PC browsers and other platforms were identified as factors driving lower revenue.
