I hope the MS money was enough for Capcom. There is an audience on PlayStation waiting for the Dead Rising series to come over again.
There is also an audience on Xbox waiting for the SF series to come over again.

What SFV needs is an SSFV relaunch, Xbox owners aren't going to change it's fortunes.
Dead Rising about to become Dino Crisis and vs put to hibernation. At least frank made it into MVCI
Capcom always has lofty sales expectations, no? Didn't they predict RE7 to sell 10 million?SFV still has not reached its' initial sales goal of 2 million copies that they estimated they'd get in 6 weeks.
It will never reach its' intended sales goal. Whatever it was.
Not even Smash did 2 million in one week. Injustice 2 was close to 2 million in 2 months (1+ million in NA alone, no japanese release), Tekken 7 was under 1 million in 1 month.Absolute disasterous number for sfv. Considering the brand name and how well fighting games sell now. Absolutely terrible. Shows us how you have to fuck up at a tremendous level to not even sell 2 million copy for biggest name in fighting game when injustice,smash,tekken7 are all selling like hot cakes and will probably have surpassed the 2 mil mark within one week of release.
DR4 was a quick cash grab by Capcom, it isn't a bad game

In 2014, Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS sold over two million physical and digital copies in the United States.[120] In Japan, nearly 2,190,000 copies had been sold six months after release.[121]
Super Smash Bros. for Wii U became the fastest-selling Wii U game in the U.S., with 490,000 physical and digital copies sold during its first three days of availability, beating the record previously held by Mario Kart 8.[122] By the end of 2014, the number sold had increased to over 1.3 million.[120] By the end of March 2015, 1.6 million units had been sold.[123]
By the end of March 2017, the 3DS version had sold 8.72 million copies worldwide,[124] while the Wii U version sold 5.20 million copies worldwide.[125]
Dead rising is the blueprint on how to fuck up an ip, see the last tomb raider too.
It's time for Super Street Fighter V Capcom, whether you like it or not. Updates won't really do much at this point. The game needs a reset in marketing and hype.
FtfyI hope the Sony money was enough for Capcom. There is an audience on Xbox waiting for the Street fighter series to come over again.

Yikes. I even bought DR4 brand new so this number is surprising. I mean hasn't this game been on sale multiple times? And it's been 4 years since it's launch right? I don't believe this at all tbh...just doesn't add up
I would assume it would be like Rocket League where PC can play with Xbox or PS, but PS and Xbox can't play together.That's obviously what they need to do, and it would be shocking if they don't.
It's too late for an xbox version due to the exclusivity situation and PC/PS4 crossplay situation. Unless Sony gives them an out on the contract and lets it be 3-way crossplay, which won't happen. Microsoft is not going to want a game on their system that segregates them from a PC-PS4 userbase, making it be essentially feature-lacking.

PS always been done dirty with this series.
DR1 360 only (yeah I know it only just recently got a PS4 port).
Chop til you drop Wii only.
DR2 beginning 360 only DLC
DR2 post game DLC 360 only DLC
DR3 Not on PS4
DR4 Timed exclusive not on PS4.
I'm amazed is even a PS fanbase for the series with such shitty support.

Hope DR4 sales are bad enough for Capcom to reconsider the direction of the franchise like they did with RE7. DR franchise isnt dead, but needs some sort of soft reboot perhaps. I know there's already a lot of openings at Capcom Vancouver.
Not even a relaunch will save this game, it's reach a point in it's life nothing will change, a new name and new box cover won't change the fact the game never register with a big part of the Fighting game fans...
Yeah i hate when other platforms have exclusives too its such bullshit
Would at least push it over the 2mm mark. There was a huge contingent of FG fans on xbox last gen. Even with a much smaller base than PS4, I have to believe they could sell 500K of units minimum on xbox.

Their aim to make this the worst selling Dead Rising shall come to fruition.
Maybe after season 2 finishes up.SSFV with all content from seasons 1 and 2 along with a proper arcade mode released at $40 is such an obvious thing to do. Capcom needs to swallow their pride and just do it.
Not even Smash did 2 million in one week. Injustice 2 was close to 2 million in 2 months (1+ million in NA alone, no japanese release), Tekken 7 was under 1 million in 1 month.
So not within 1 week.
Don't they still have something like another 8 months left?Maybe after season 2 finishes up.
Hopefully these shit sales teach Capcom that excluding specific consoles is a stupid idea.
They tried being console excusive on both consoles and it turned out bad for them. stop excluding peiple who want to buy your game.
I think it can improve if they do a SSFV with all the casual issues addressed then maybe later on down the line make it F2P like Paragon. In terms of fighting game sales this generation they are doing better than their competitors like KOF, GG and BlazBlue (haven't seen Injustice and Tekken sales yet) so there's certainly still room for growth.
Wow. Dead Rising should euthanized.
