As the other users have pointed out, Majima is still the same guy as in 0 (and before the events of 0). The "Mad Dog" persona is fake and was created to prevent others from messing with him. Remember, at the end of 0, Majima was fed up with everybody using him like a pawn. Also, if you decide to continue playing the series, you'll see Majima gradually dropping the "Mad Dog" act. In Yakuza 5 and 6, his personality is like in 0 again, even though he's barely in both of those games.
