THQ Nordic satsar på den japanska marknaden

THQ Nordic låter meddela att de nu även dragit igång THQ Nordic Japan KK, som har ansvaret för "distribution, PR, and marketing of THQ Nordic's and HandyGames' slate of games in the Japanese market", enligt pressreleasen. Företaget har gott om japansk expertis och managing director Yuji Kato kan stoltsera med 20 års branscherfarenhet, och han får i sin tur sällskap av manager Junko Kato samt Hiroshi Ogawa inom project management.

Som sig bör vid sådana här utannonseringar, har Klemens Kreuzer, managing director hos THQ Nordic, följande att säga om nysatsningen:

"In our opinion, the only real way to truly embrace (pun intended) the Japanese market is to run it with a team of Japanese professionals, which was our approach for the new Japanese subsidiary. A warm, heartfelt welcome to the entire team based in Tokyo, Japan. Good things come to those who wait and we took our time to realize it with the best setup possible."

Även Yuji Kato har några ord på vägen:

"At this point, I would like to quote Persona 3: "Two in Harmony Surpasses One in Perfection". Our team is prepared, honoured and absolutely ready to kickstart THQ Nordic's operations on the Japanese market. We are honoured that we were given this opportunity and can not wait to bring THQ Nordic content to our Japanese audience."

Låter detta som ett bra drag?
