They have already experimented with this style in the following RE game.
I enjoyed it.
Ummm no, the reflection of the last game they made was they sold 30% of RE7 sales on a re-release of it..I think everyone expected DR4 to disappoint
And RE7 continues the RE sales tradition of reflecting on the quality of the prior game
If anything this might push them to do a Switch version sooner since I'm sure even Japan is sick of 240p MHI just hope this doesn't hurt MonHun's chances of finally making it off of a 240p screen. I don't care if it's Switch/PS4/PC/anything just let me play it on a big screen.
Also, sucks to hear that RE7 under-performed. I really really enjoyed my time with it.
And people still want to believe that RE6 is a complete garbage that no sane human would like or enjoy.
Since when was 3.5 considered bad?
Capcom must have expected after so much negative press of 6 that it needed to gain trust again.
Resi 8, could be huge.
Still more a problem of the game and their scheduling than with the platforms, it could have sold a lot better if released around now,even with all the wrong things about the game itself.Yeah, as a launchgame with limited other games to play....
LOL. Monster Hunter's success in Japan is built around portable systems using ad-hoc multiplayer. Of course it's going to sell well on a brand new portable system that has support for ad-hoc multiplayer. Announcing MH5 as a Switch exclusive is the least surprising thing Capcom could do with it.
Depends if Japan sees Switch as a Handheld or a console

We all know The console versions of these games don't sell all that.

Who knew making a PC game W10 Store exclusive for 6 months might hurt sales...
Resident Evil 7 biohazard (for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Windows PC), which features the ability to play the full game in the included optional PSVR Mode for PS4, gave an overall solid performance, while Monster Hunter XX (Double Cross) (for the Nintendo 3DS family of systems), is off to a promising start following its March 2017 release.
No doubt. No game is perfect and RE6 is definitely far from being a perfect title. But at the end of the day it's an enjoyable action game, despite how many people want to say otherwise.It had a lot of issues, but mechanically it is an amazing game.
Outside of Nintendo, Capcom has the best stable of IPs. They don't really need new ones, they need to bring back old ones and do them justice. People have been asking for a new Power Stone, Darkstalkers, Dino Crisis, Onimusha, you name it for a very long time. Build a team and give them a proper budget and time and they can do some things.
Can you imagine Chris being stuck in the baker house? He would be throwing jack around like it was a joke.
Welcome to the bomba family, son.
i hope this will teach them a lesson ?
RE back to action shit. Fuck this.
Keep experimental titles far away from the mainline sequels.
Whenever they can scrounge up 600 devs, RE8 on Panty Ray will be amazing.
About half of REVII was just walking up hallways blasting enemies.
Sales:

Note 2: The Resident Evil ports and the Monster Hunter Pachinko machine were both cited as strong successes, and they were bragging about the Otome mobile game they had.

I bought Resident Evil 6 remastered last year because I thought it wasn't as bad as many proclaimed it to be; It was one of the worst games I've ever played. Uninspiring level design, ugly, and I had no motivation to move forward. Coop couldn't even make it somewhat enjoyable. Horrible game.And people still want to believe that RE6 is a complete garbage that no sane human would like or enjoy.
But it lets you slide and suplex zombies, so it automatically has the best combat ever and if you don't like it then you just suck./sI bought Resident Evil 6 remastered last year because I thought it wasn't as bad as many proclaimed it to be; It was one of the worst games I've ever played.

RE7 didn't sell as much as it could because it didn't have a protagonist and first person drove many away.
The direction is fantastic ,but it needs a central hero with an attractive design ,and needs to go back to 3rd person.Just to be more marketable and appealing.
The game is infinitely better than Re6 though.

All of these games had some dumb exclusivity too, which probably isn't why they failed to sell but...
RE7 VR mode timed PSVR exclusive
MHXX Japan and old as fuck 3DS exclusive
DR4 Windows 10 timed exclusive on PC
Please stop Capcom. Release your games and content to everyone instead of pissing people off with every release.
People want Monster Hunter on Switch already
I mean RE7 was designed around niche-game design philosophies, it was basically an indie-style horror game but higher quality with a high level of budget and polish.
Not sure what they were expecting to be honest. Especially after the trash fire that was RE6 that turned a bunch of people off the series and forced their hand into a soft reboot for 7.
Re7 recouped with development cost back in february:

While Re6 after selling 5 million copies didn't meets sales expectations:

what you think cost more?
So it has nothing to do with game turn 180 to become horror and change perspective to FPS?
