Pachislot and Pachinko Business
The number of Pachislot and Pachinko machines sold during the first nine months amounted to more than 142,000 units. The Pachislot and Pachinko Business posted net sales of 58,624 million yen (an increase of 30.6% year on year) and operating income of 18,624 million yen (an increase of 9.5% year on year).
In the third quarter, the oversupply of machines at other companies had significant effect on Pachinko hall operators due to the deadlines for the industry's adoption of voluntary restrictions on Pachislot machines (October) and Pachinko machines (November).
In the Pachislot category, we have launched three initiatives which should contribute to Pachislot operations at Pachinko halls operating under the prevailing circumstances. These are: through marketing increased production volumes of the popular title "Basilisk: The Koga Ninpocho Kizuna"; additional sales of "Hanabi mat black ver.," a new model machine in the "Hanabi," which continues to prove overwhelmingly popular among the members of its regular user base; and finally, a completely new model machine, "DEVILMAN III -Akuma no Mokushiroku-," which has gone on sale in limited geographical regions due to administrative circumstances.
In the Pachinko category, we have launched following two titles: "CR Midoridon Hanabi DE Buon Giorno," which uses the original license of our popular Pachislot title, and "CR Million God Rising -ZEUS again-," which modified some specifications of machines currently in use.
