Korean gaming company NHN recently announced it will sell its 55% stake in Chinese online gaming company Ourgame to Beijing-based Wei De Wo Fu Investment Advisors for an unknown sum.
NHN has decided to sell Ourgame due to poor performance, as the company suffered consecutive losses starting in 2006.
NHN will shift China operations for its games to domestic operators such as Shanda (Nasdaq: SNDA) and Tencent (0700.HK).
