Dahbomb salt imminent
After the initial high I got over the possibility of a DMC5, I started thinking this.
I cried a little.
Maaaan....that would be the bummer of the century
An new Resident Evil?!
Fuck no son... do you KNOW who Hideaki Itsuno is? He makes the Devil May Cry games and he makes Dragon's Dogma.
Although he has worked on fighting games too but he is mostly known for those games. Meaning the most likely chance outside of a new IP is FUCKING DEVIL MAY CRY 5 SON!!!!

DMC4 already has an iOS version. It's nothing new.
Not trying to mess up your hopes, but DmC didn't reset the series? Or Devil May Cry is totally different than this new DmC?
IIRC it was neither a reboot or a reset. They initially promoted it as it's own thing. Good move considering the reception, I guess.
It's a parallel universe. Like Spider Man versus like Ultimate Spider Man or something (or Nolan Batman versus Burton Batman). Basically the events of DmC have nothing to do with the events of DMC.
It was originally billed as a prequel reboot but after the backlash they started marketing as it's own thing in a different universe.
More like, it was indeed initially promoted as a reboot, leading them unable to make up their minds on whether it was meant to be a prequel or an alternate continuity until the backlash finally led them to settle on the latter.
EDIT: Beaten.

I thought dahbomb hated speculation/speculators
No it's just conjecture based on the information provided. While this is the guy who normally makes the DMC series, he also makes a bunch of other games.
This is his directorial resume:
Devil May Cry series except DMC1 (Kamiya made DMC1 and NT made DmC, Itsuno helped them but did not direct)
Dragon's Dogma
Capcom vs SNK 2
Power Stone 2
Rival Schools
So for fighting game fans there is a chance of something like CVS3 or a revival of Rival Schools although very unlikely. It's most likely Dragon's Dogma 2, Devil May Cry 5 or a new IP... I can't see this being anything else.
With Deep Down coming over the horizon it makes little sense for them to have another next gen game like it.
No I hate leakers with wrong information. This is official information. While this may not be a DMC5, a new game is definitely coming it's in the official live stream schedule.
Yes, it's only a speculation so far, but I'm hype for the possibility too
As much as I would take a Japanese DMC5, I would like it more if it was Dragon's Dogma 2.
So much untapped potential in the first one.
Looks like Capcom Cup is no longer part of WCG Finals.

In fighting games news, Capcom just released Capcom Cup's trailer, that will happen on December 14th, sadly no info about UMvC3 or SfxT yet
EDIT: beaten
EDIT: beaten
The speculation is what the new game will be... not that there is a new game coming.
I would commit gaming seppuku if this is a DMC iOS game.

fuck yeah marvel 4
And Strider
cause they're currently reeling from a series of unfortunate decisions that almost killed them, though the MH4 parachute just opened to save their ass.
I think he means "AAA" actually next gen console games.
In the current gen, Capcom starting out had 4 AAA console games in development and had announced. RE5, DMC4, Dead Rising and Lost Planet.
It could be possible they have that many games in development of that caliber. I find it extremely hard to believe that one of their few remaining talents is working on a god damn iOS so it's most likely a next gen game (DD2, DMC5, new game whatever). The RE team is most likely on work with a RE7 or its equivalent.

Watching some matches 6:45 uploaded to his channel from tfc. That first to ten between Tauseef and Andre was hilarious. I like how Andre is down 9-3 and turns his hat around like "I got this!".http://youtu.be/e6KoyNhSKwA

So if any remaining North American player wants a spot in AE Capcom Cup, they'll have to fly. The same goes for any Japanese player who gets 2nd or worse at TGS.
If you try to hijack the asia qualifier, you will have to deal with Poongko/Infiltration/Laugh/Gamerbee and probably some of the better singapore players like Gackt and Leslie.
If you try to steal shadowloo, you will have to deal with another large amount of Japanese players and Snake Eyez.
No doubt most are going to scramble for the UK qualifier at the last minute. It's probably why Ryan Hart flew to Treta in the first place.
Yeah, pretty sure EG players will fly to other events. I kinda expected there to be two qualifiers in NA America at least.
I didn't realize it's only an 8 man bracket this time. So Chris G will probably be the only American SF4 player in it.

you can think of Evo as the first qualifier.

I'm super excited that Capcom Cup is so close to where I live. Gonna do my best to not miss out on this like I did with the Street Fighter 25th Anniversary finals.
lol I thought it was only me, but yeah, the game looks pretty bad so far, like a hack and smash for mashers. Strider DESTROYS every enemy and don't even stop to fight them. I hope it can get better, but I don't think it will

I can't remember the last time I got so hype only to have those dreams crushed instantly
Capcom Cup is an 8 man bracket?
I hope they do longer sets then.
So I guess Xian (EVO) and ChrisG (TFC) are confirmed.
The other qualifiers are:
Treta (Brazil)
TGS Madcatz (Japan)
Shadowloo Showdown (Australia)
Asian Finals (Singapore, Korea, Taiwan) [2 players qualify from here]
Play EXPO (UK)

Treta already happened, Sakonoko won and it's confirmed as well

For iOS. :>
I don't know about the rest of you guys, but I'm excited to see Capcom's latest iOS masterpiece!
I see. So it's ChrisG, Xian, Sakonoko plus 5 other players.
Damn no kidding, ChrisG really might be the only NA player to qualify.
It should be long sets at the minimum. Problem with Topanga league is that every match isn't as urgent, you can potentially lose two matches (go 5-2) and still win it all. There has to be a Grand Final, big last game for all the money and title.
Sets should be a minimum of 3/5.

Who's in for some avatar bets?
I'll bet this is another remake, maybe, I don't know, Rival Schools HD?
