Domestic crunch
Namco Bandai doesn't break out its mobile business, filing the figures along console sales within its general Content category.
However it does detail what it calls mobile pay subscriber numbers (Japanese-only).
It had a total of 2.1 million paid subscribers for its game services, down 7.9 percent compared to March 2011. This follows a trend that saw the company lose 18 percent of its game subscribers during the previous quarter.
Combining its mobile game, characters, sound and other users, in June Namco Bandai had 3 million paid mobile subscribers, down 8 percent compared to March.
