Huh. Guess this puts a stop to the "7 sales" meme.

How's 12 millions just "strong", but 4 millions is a "major hit"?

Man, that is some wholesome news
I guess time is a factor, MH released january last year while REmake was january this year, I guess sale have been comparatively better according to higher ups (?)

They're talking about MHW's sales after the last update.

Based, now gimme RE3 announcement trailer on E3.

How do we get them to bring Viewtiful Joe back?

They will announce it next year. This year is too early

>While Monster Hunter World did not achieve any further sales milestone beyondthe latest 12 million shipments figureas of March 31
Lmao, the game is already dead

The insider told that REmake3 is coming sooner than we expect so...

NOOO MICHAEL AND BARRY SAID THE GAMES WOULD NEVER REACH EVEN A MILLION AND WOULD BE THE DEATH OF CAPCOM!

POWER STONE AND RIVAL SCHOOLS WHEN YOU COWARDS!?

Are we gonna be ok afterall Megabros?

Hope so. 11 was great. Hope they keep the dual gear gimmick in a possible sequel. Also, bring back megaman x. At this point I´d be ok with a reboot of it, honestly. Current plot is a mess

Proto Man dlc fucking never unfortunately.

Physical sales of video games, etc. has always been shipped copies. It's not possible to track actual sales.

I miss viewtiful chad

I just hope they reboot Battle Network
Capcom is all over the Switch like white on rice

>>While Monster Hunter World did not achieve any further sales milestone beyondthe latest 12 million shipments figureas of March 31, its sales are defined “Strong.”
And it's unlikely that they're going to achieve that much again
Most of the game sales were from normies who saw shit like "It's like destiny with dragons"

They already reported around 850k sales a few months back. Could be around a million now, but I think they'd mention it more confidently if it had crossed that mark.

>. has always been shipped copies
this is wrong.

>W-well perhaps it sold well b-but it definitely will never happen again!!

Fucking Switchlet, fuck off.

It's utterly impossible to track physical copies sold to customers. Physical video game sales have always been shipped copies. This is a fact. Shut up if you don't know anything about these things.

>Actually it won't sell like crazy

DMC is done as a franchise.

stop

I have the ps4 collectors edition, so if you don't have any arguments suck my fucking cock

>Devil May Cry 5 shipped2 million unitsbacked by its “popularity in overseas markets.”
2 million isn't that good considering I saw ads for it everywhere. I saw more ads online for DMC 5 than RDR 2.

>Monster Hunter Generations Ultimate for Switch saw “robust” sales in the western markets
Xiii......

if they hire platinum to make either, sure

>Xiii
quer ir tomar no cu nao irmao?

Why can't we have both user?

Why? For a change someone in here is comparing two games that are actually similar and compete in the same market. Do you think one´s devs don´t look at the other to see what they do right and wrong? With no competition there´s no push for improvement

U mad shitendista de bost@?
Vai dar o cu e gritar BING BING para o seu macho negro, vai.

Here's hoping they redeem themselves with SF6. Otherwise I'll be sad since they got me into the genre but its grown enough to not need them now. Rest of their IPs are stellar, waiting on Iceborne and maybe Dragons Dogma 2.

>mobile games slow down

Literally the greatest thing that could happen the entire industry would be for mobile to stop making so much money.

It did it in 2 weeks. 5 million by the end of the year.

this is complete bullshit.

As long as FGO is still trending up, I don't think other companies will stop trying.

Take it easy on Bayo players, they need a universal dodge button after all.

It is
>Lost the guy who directed 2
Good sign.
>Platinum games already has a ton of projects going
Madworld, Infinite Space, Bayonetta, and Vanquish all came out within a year of one another. Same with MGR, W101, Bayo 2, and Korra. They don't have any more projects going on simultaneously now than usual.
>Recently said 3 would be different than 1 and 2
Probably their best chance at making something good, especially if Kamiya isn't directing, and he most likely isn't.

yeah i'd fuck bayonetta

Well they did mention stuff about esports
>Moreover, in the fast-growing esports business, the Company, in addition to leveraging its abundant experience and operational knowhow accumulated over the years in the US, intends to make a full-scale entry into the market and gain a firm footing through the allocation of the necessary funds and human resources.

Though when they say entry to the market, I believe that means establish themselves in the US esports business not a new title. But seeing as SF is currently their only title to fit the bill it could mean something. I would lean to supporting SFV more being more likely, but it has been 5 months since the last DLC character with no news on what is happening. Entrants and views are down again, I'm amazed to see Tekken actually having more entrants at many events now. But I also don't think SF6 is happening soon, with Ono being sidelined that whole division is in an odd spot. Plus I think a lot of people just aren't willing to forgive them yet. Who knows

No need, you look like you already touch yourself way too much

for the switch? ok fag.

>whileMega Man 11 also performed well.
Mexaman X 9 when?

All I take from this is that we're not getting Onimusha 2/3/4.

Probably the next game they're working on, aside from the mobile games.

I hope since we actually got fucked with the online system on DMC5 they used it to beta test online for a Outbreak remake.

It´s Yea Forums. There will be shitposting. Doesn´t make comparing games that are comparable a bad thing

Dragons Dogma 2 when?

What you're writing is fine and all but unfortunately, I'm one of those people, you know, those that can't stand SF5 at its core, its mechanics, the way footsies are played, its normals, its whiff punishing, defensive/offensive options, almost everything gameplay related about it.

All the correct marketing moves for SF5 would not change my point in the slightest. And I think almost 800 hours of me trying to like it has solidified that. That's why they can do whatever they want with 5 but I'm willing to give them a 2nd chance ONLY if they make a new one.

Now, now, Cheshire... Wouldn't want to get your blood flowing before you dilate, now, would we?

>dmc is done as a franchise
yeah great comparing and criticism there

The question is when will things go back to shit.
It's a cycle.

Okami 2 when ?

Wasn´t me saying that user and obviously that other user is a retarded shitposter

You wish, discord trannyfucker

Okami 2 is already included in the game Okami. It's the middle part.

Console warriors are fucking retarded

>source my ass
I want to break your fucking skull with Rebellion

You're the reason why Yea Forums shouldn't attempt to talk about games sales or market in general.

Do they even still have mobile games?
It makes sense for them to say mobile games are slowing down because all of the ones they made were pretty terrible, even for mobile games.

>As such, to generate synergy with its popular games via greater global brand awareness and value, the Company has been producing world-leading content, with brands such as Street Fighter and Resident Evil being made into Hollywood movies
They best be talking about the old one and not Legend of Chun-li

>All the correct marketing moves for SF5 would not change my point in the slightest.
I don't like the game either, I was just pointing put the one thing that has a chance of keeping SF relevant to capcom. With Ono being a fuck up there is no one to really push for it inside the company. All the old devs have left, Oda is back with SNK, even Seth and Combofiend are gone. SF6 will most likely happen if Capcom is serious enough about esports but come to believe SFV can't sustain it

Battle Network had a proper ending, it doesn't need a reboot or a sequel. I'll gladly take a battle network collection though

Perhaps they mean like, the phone version of monster hunter stores?

It wasn't me that wrote that, but i believe it because someone leaked DMC5 here and no one believed either

I still don't understand why they made that. Everyone with a 3DS, which is 100% of jap population and 70% of the rest of the world played it already.

And I think phone ver. doesn't have the extra scenario that was added to the jap 3DS ver. later did it? Pissed me the hell off when neither platform got it localized.

>DMC is done as a franchise.

How? It's gonna end up selling more than Bayonetta 3

>Fake image
>Real leak
how did he do it?

The image wasn't supposed to prove anything.

DMC 5 has outsold the entirety of the poor mans dmc franchise known as bayonetta.

>s mechanics, the way footsies are played, its normals, its whiff punishing
I am sorry, you probably have a good reason for this, but whenever I see comments like this, about ANY GAME not just SF5, half the time it's salty SFIV players who think that "footsies" means "Whiffing normals at half screen" because IV is all they've played.

Not that there's any love lost between myself and 5. Basically the only halfway decent move Capcom did with 5, was bringing my nigga Alex back.

Yes, I liked 4 and don't like 5. 4 is also a game with many problems but I liked playing it even with them. No fighting game is ever without problems or perfectly balanced.

Its always about what you, the player, likes. I think I made it clear in my post that I personally didn't like those gameplay parts I mentioned. Whoever likes them, more power to them, I didn't and spent an unnatural amount of time confirming that. Never did I mention anything about balance or bad design, it was always about how I perceived the game myself.

>God Hand comes back with even worse reviews because journos have gotten only worse since 2005 and cant comprehend gameplay requiring more than 2 inputs

Different budgets you retarded Amerifatski. Revenue != Profits.

no way fag

Not to a single unit accuracy. But it sure as hell is possible to track sales. What do you think NPD, meadia create, gfk and sell and whatever they are called do? Do you think retailers scan every single sold units just for fun and giggles and then later discard those numbers because nobody needs to know actual sales?

Its amazing how many times shit gets leaked on Yea Forums and no one believes them. Granted its like 1/1000 that are true, but it still happens frequently.

Probably wasn't fake at the time, it was just never used by marketing before the team changed it.

Nah, the image has been in use for many years as generic DMC5 leak thread OP.

>slowdown of mobile games
Thats do weird to here in this day and age. Pelrhaps the mobile game Market is getting oversaturated

Yep. I'm thinking they're back.
