    Sonic Adventure DX Sales Help Pushes SEGA to Profit

    Game sales exceeded SEGA's expectations.

    It looks like SEGA is coming back! In its first publicly-released quarterly earnings report, the company announced that it had generated a profit of ¥1.89 billion ($15.8 million USD) across ¥42.4 billion ($353 million USD) in sales between April and June 2003. And it's all down to Sonic.

    According to SEGA, the surprise uplift to the publisher's fortunes has come thanks to the release of Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut on the Gamecube, which sold above expectations. Another title, Let's Make A J-League Soccer Club 3 for PlayStation 2, is also credited with impressive sales.

    SEGA dropped out of the home console business back in 2001, in a move that made everyone feel like all was lost for the company that made Sonic. It's great to see the company doing so well today, with its third-party efforts starting to bear decent results.

    Certainly, it looks like the ports are selling well... so it makes you think, what the sales for Sonic Heroes will be...
