Majesco revenues up 60% for second quarter (Thanks, Jillian Michaels, Cooking Mama ... again)

by Majed Athab on Jun 16th 2009 5:40PM

Majesco ~~announced~~ gloated yesterday about its earnings for the second quarter of 2009 (ending April 30, 2009). The company reported net revenues increased 60.8% to $20.5 million over the $12.8 million earned in the same period last year. Majesco attributes the massive increase of revenue to strong software sales for Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2009, Cooking Mama titles and Gardening Mama, which hit retailers in March.

Last quarter, Majesco's revenues kicked up 75% with its good fortunes also attributed to the same games with Jillian Michaels' Ultimatum selling more than half a million copies. It's then not surprising that Majesco is expanding the brand, bringing out Ultimatum 2010 for Wii and Jillian Michaels Pocket Trainer 2010 on DS next year.

Even better than Mama

cooking mama theyre proud of that?

Well when you make that fateful decision to sell your soul and creativity to make any little money you can (really...20 million isn't even that much for companies), I'm sure they don't mind feeling good about it.

yeah, come back when you're over 1 BILLION dollars in debt like TEH REAL HARDCORE COMPANIEZ

Cooking mama was highly creative and original when it first came out. Whats wrong with them expanding on that?

i guess maybe it did help college kids cook
somthin & change their steady diet of taco
bell & jack in the box.

You're asking are they proud of creating a franchise which is finally netting a god amount of profit? Yes, I'm sure they're very proud of that.

Jillian Michaels got something up...but it ain't my revenues! Heyoooooo!

you know jillian michaels is a dood rite?

Jillian Michaels Pocket Pool 2010 on DS next year

Nice buns.

Great. Now bring on Gauntlet DS.

Ask Santa for it this year.

Wow. I hope those jokes about her being attractive are just jokes. Otherwise, remove that branding iron from your eyes.

I'm not seeing it. She's got a man-face. She's got a man's face on her body. She looks like Criss Angel: Mindfreak with boobs.

Wow- muscles and curves. My penis is so confused

thanks for that image rob. she hasn't been very attractive to me until that photo. she looks like a hot babe in that one instead of the sweaty gym chick look she usually has going.
