Beeline, Capcom's mobile unit, sees revenues climb to $52.6 million in the first nine months of this fiscal year

Buoyed by hits like Snoopy’s Street Fair and growth in the local Japanese market, Capcom’s mobile revenue climbed 68 percent year-over-year to 4 billion yen ($52.6 million) in the first nine months of this fiscal year. Profit or net income was up almost threefold year-over-year at 1.4 billion yen ($17.9 million).

The Tokyo-based company’s mobile unit has done well for itself by licensing out well-known brands and building casual, freemium mobile games around them. It plans to leverage another family-friendly brand this quarter with the launch of Shrek’s Fairytale Kingdom.
