If you can't stand the red, get back in the kitchen

So apparently Majesco Entertainment's Q1 was a profitable one. Was this due to years of hard work on developing deep games that people will still talk about in 10 years? Or perhaps was it by producing cheep to make games that focus on flipping cartoon burgers?

I will give you one guess.

Need a hint...

Ok, I will just tell you. Its cooking mama, the food making simulation that is sweeping the nation.

Is this a bad thing? Not necessarily but lines like this are: "The company saw 77% of its sales from handheld titles, like Cooking Mama 2: Dinner with Friends on DS"

I wonder just how many companies the lovers of deep games will lose to the casual war. I know that Majesco is lost forever.
