https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rovio_Entertainment >Japan-based Sega Sammy Holdings acquired Rovio for US$776 million in August 2023, making the latter company a wholly owned subsidiary of Sega.
I remember reading an article that the AB developers basically had lightening in a bottle with the first games and kept trying to ride it until everyone realized the game was pretty meh tier. Most of their income came from adverts and merchandise but at the end, they ran out of money because everyone stopped giving a shit about ABs.
Angry Birds was just one of the earliest smart phone games that didn't suck. That's it. There's nothing special about it; it was just early to the party. It wouldn't even get a second look if it was released in today's market.

They didn’t run out of money or go bankrupt, they made more money each year. They just didn’t grow at an exponential rate. Clickbait YouTube gurus said that roving became bankrupt but that was never the case
The angry birds IP is actually pretty profitable though, angry birds makes more money then Mario and sonic.
>The angry birds IP is actually pretty profitable though, angry birds makes more money then Mario and sonic.
I would never guess it. Must be another case of "Garfield" that is super profitable even though it's not that big of a deal.
The more I think about it, the more I realize how similar Sonic and Angry Birds are. >Is a game series about cartoon animals >Have a separate classic and modern designs, both has different animated series based on the designs >Classic games were the best, while a lot of modern ones are shit >Series trying to experiment with a lot of things and fail miserably in a lot of them despite already having the perfect formula >Mascot tries to be hip with the kids >Series were at some point known for a trio of red, blue and yellow characters >Main character's best friend is a yellow character while the love Intrest is a pink character >Both are multimedia series that were a cultural phenomenon at some point
It's to safe to say that Angry Birds is the Sonic of mobile gaming.
>Series trying to experiment with a lot of things and fail miserably in a lot of them despite already having the perfect formula
Actually Angry birds has a far better record than sonic in that regard. Space was a lot of fun, and bad piggies is one of the most fun and unique mobile games I've ever played, Epic and 2 are at worst, fine.
The only thing really holding the later entries back is the cancerous mobile game energy thing, it's fricking infuriating how modern games outright stop you from.playing them entirely because you played them too much
That's why I said "a lot of them" instead of "all of them". Some stuff Rovio experimented with turned out to be good, like Bad Piggies and Angry Birds Space >The only thing really holding the later entries back is the cancerous mobile game energy thing, it's fricking infuriating how modern games outright stop you from.playing them entirely because you played them too much
This, which is why I hope Angry Birds stops from being on mobile, but I doubt that making money from mobile games is the reason why Sega bought them in the first place

It's a bandaid solution I know, but you can always download a modded apk and run it on Bluestacks
Angry birds total war
angry birds with miku
small town murders with sega characters
rovio might also tone down some of the wokeshit they've been pushing recently, not toned down much but toned down
It means we're gonna see more Angry Birds games and that SEGA is still trying very hard to have more success in the mobile space. SEGA has been developing and releasing mobile games for a while and many have badly underperformed. I believe their most recent big one, Game Reset 404, is also underperforming.
>Angry birds has lost almost the entirety of their public presence.
how? everybody knows what fricking angry birds is. its never been more than a game that you play while you're taking a shit or you give to your kid to get them to shut up while waiting at the doctor's office.

basically it's Teardown mixed with Banjo
is it funny or interesting? Because if it's just normal business dealing or they promised simple cameos in future projects, then it's not worth the slight chance at a dox.
Angry Hogs
I was wondering when we were getting an Unleashed sequel.

two seconds on google, moron
thank you captain autism.
now, what does this mean for the games? new games? angry birds racing?
wtf they named the company after him?
It means that Angry Birds can be an arcade game in Yakuza now.

Think everyone got pissed off of AB spamming the App Store in every category
Yet I never hit download. Glad they did that since it made me avoid the game.

The Angry birds IP Almost makes as much money as dragon ball lmao
Sonic on the other hand makes less money than ice age(literally who)

I hope we get actual bird and sonic teamup instead of reskin of angry birds
The crossover that'll save Sonic
bird dlc for sonic frontiers
It means sega wasted millions on a dead franchise
But enough about Sonic.
isn't Rovio is close to bankruptcy
Can't wait to see this with Sonic babes as a promo.
HOT CHICK HEAVEN
Is Pit actually a kid?

they're close, but angry birds doesn't attract as many autists and sexual deviants as sanic

Total waste of money, they only have one good IP and it's fallen off the fricking map too.
it means we lost
It means they'll finally bring back the Babylon Rogues!!!!
Why the frick is Sega so behind the curve on this? Angry birds has lost almost the entirety of their public presence.
>Angry birds has lost almost the entirety of their public presence.
how? everybody knows what fricking angry birds is. its never been more than a game that you play while you're taking a shit or you give to your kid to get them to shut up while waiting at the doctor's office.
Rovio's last ditch effort to be relevant again.

I have insider info on this but i cant tell anyone
Sonic related?
no, about how the rovio deal went down
if some leaker anon can give me tips on software and or methods on how to not dox myself, i might share what i got (pics and videos)
is it funny or interesting? Because if it's just normal business dealing or they promised simple cameos in future projects, then it's not worth the slight chance at a dox.
use pastebin and a vpn or 2. or just dont mention rovio and sega.
Be discreet and use analogies.
just install tor and come back in here using it
I have insider information that you're a homosexual larper with autism....wait everyone knows that.
fake and gay
More autism
The Mario and Sonic series is now over
Sega was originally made by the mafia and they partnered with the Yakuza. Once you understand this every decision makes sense.
kino
Why do angry birds renders look better than sonic ones?
Some Sonic renders are old and yet still used
Angry Birds is a shoo in for Smash 6?
It means Sega bought Rovio, the company that makes Angry Birds.
If you're asking what WILL it mean...
Porn, sonic x angry bird porn.
Which means Sega is going to mismanage and ruin it somehow.
how the frick is Sega still alive with shit like this?
Pachinko money.
