That's what I was going to say.
if i am not mistaken, the highly popular Fate Grand/Order is made by one of Sony subsidiary and it can accumulate around $ 1 M daily in revenue when there are special event or special female character.
So, maybe Sony would make more game like that and bring it to global market for easy money.

Yes, Aniplex, though it might be closer to $2-$3 million a day during events given how it's been charting.
Technically it's through a contract studio and published by Aniplex though.
It's also frequently in what should still be the six figure a day range when not in events.
Yep, missed opportunity. Have no idea why they killed PSM. One step forward, two steps back.
This or Mainichi Issho successor.
But I guess we'll see just another endless runner
This is for Japan, maybe they'll make more money on day one than all Evolution games together there .

Hopefully with SIE comes stronger unity of all these region bullshit.
no expectations
The only time they care about releasing non-standard games in Asia is when they're going to be free on Plus. Suddenly Asia team then goes "oh shit we need to bring it here!"

So does this add to the narrative that Sony is getting out of the console business?

Sometimes SCEAsia really sucks at digital release. Fucking Witness still not available for our store!
So they get rid of their mobile section on Vita but go back to mobile games like this..
Mobile game section on Vita coming back?
I havent checked this out in a while but:

Now, now....lets not let facts get in the way of all this.
MS and Sony also both make mobile phones too. Its seems absolutey logical for them to do mobile games.
That would singlehandedly make the worst E3 of all time.
Crash is back!!!!!!!! ... On your mobile.

That GIF is actually amusing lol.
This news so soon after Evolution makes me super sad.
I think this is how Crash will return. Calling it now.
Long overdue...

They used to port all the Playstation Mobile games to Vita. There was a special section on the store. I got some very interesting games from it lol
If that's how Crash returns then it's most definitely just a FF7 PC port to FF7 Remaster situation.
Even though Crash is perfect for a runner game

you haven't lived until a random little kid ask you "how do you make love".
So you gonna close Evolution and launch a mobile game studio ? Really Sony, really?!
yeah I know but the timing leaves a very bad taste in my mouth. I also know mobile is where the money is but it's just sad.

This could be good. Easy revenue if they establish a foothold that could allow them to risk another dedicated handheld down the road.
