If Capcom still had a final fight in them, they should show the world their breath of fire and unleash a dino crisis. Then maybe even a devil may cry.
That's not what I said at all though?
I read it as Capcom dont need to worry for competition on Switch as they wont release any hunting genre on Switch so there is no cost at all anymore for Switch lol.

welp, following a lots of threads and I mistook Capcom for Falcom here. My bad.
But regarding Capcom and PC, they usually bring their western-focused games to PC, but their titles that focus on the Japanese market usually don't. While Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen and USFIV did pretty well on Steam (according to SteamSpy.
I don't think Capcom lacks manpower. Or maybe they do, but I think they're big enough to acquire a small team for PC porting. I think other Japanese companies, such as Bandai Namco and Sega, have proven that there's a market for similar games on PC/Steam. Where are the Vs Capcom fighting games? Capcom has a lot of PS2/GC era games that they could bring over. Killer7 (made in RenderWare, which supports PC), Okami (ported in HD to PS3 in 2012), to name a few. Such games still have a following, so I think people would bite.

The way you snuck those references in there seemed almost bionic, commando.
Lol
Ahh no, I meant that the competition isn't going to be releasing on Switch and if Capcom are working on a new Monster Hunter for Switch its not going to release until 2019/2020 at the earliest. XX is the only option for at least a few years.

How about new IPs?
I can't see them having that long of a gap between releases these days.
Ohh. My mistake here lol.
I dont think it will take that long though. Especially if they are just going to take MHW basis for the new game on Switch.
I am more interested if Ninty would try to make their own Hunting game here.

It's probably better to think of MHW as 2018s title rather than expecting another one in the same year.

There was talk about Monster Hunter World as well. The posts right before (Capcom being on acid, Capcom have no idea what they are doing, Homer facepalm.jpg) what you quoted were about MHW.
Exactly, any Switch MH will be at least a year after World and that's assuming neither World or the Switch MH get delayed.

Capcom has Megaman Legacy Collection
I like how you gave up after naming two, just like Konami did.
They are both also Hudson Soft franchises. Bloody Roar time?
I don't really know what they would do next in all honesty.
Does that really count?
This konami "efforts" are low risk/low budget so I'm not sure if they are representative of anything. In fact Momotaro is developed by Nintendo if I'm not mistaken and Konami licensed the IP to them.
Nah. Nintendo striaght up bought the ip from Konami.

So you guys are saying Bonk is coming back next?
Wouldn't the projects being low effort and low budget mean it's more likely they do it again?
Speaking of old IPs, "You gotta believe!"
Valhalla Game Studios developed the game, Nintendo published and produced it, Konami licensed the IP to Nintendo.
Can it be another case like Fatal Frame where Nintendo own the series which they publish while the main IP still remain with Konami?
I wonder if that implies that they have more switches in stock than usual to make such a deal.
Dont bet on it. Next week MC and boom the Switch drop again lol.

I think "Hey Pikmin" will bomb hard in Japan. There doesn't seem to be any buzz around it. It is coming so close to Splatoon 2 and DQXI (also Lady Layton). The timing seems pretty awful and even if past entries sold relatively well (I think GC games were at 500 000 copies and 3 is at 3/400 000 copies), I cannot picture a bright future for our fellow Pikmins on 3DS. Hope I am wrong and hope it won't kill the IP :-(

There's also Pikmin 4 (hopefully... please don't be vaporware >.<), so it won't necessarily kill the franchise, but yeah, I agree that there isn't much buzz around that game. It looked kinda dull to me when I watched trailers, but I had a good hands-on time with the game.
it is an outsourced spinoff with low budget, different gameplay, very soft promotional push.
YOS prediction picture its debut around 50k, 100k could be possible.
it won't kill the beloved-from-miyamoto IP
Pikmin 4 will define the future of that IP, not a low budget spin-off.

M-C doesn't track Amazon sales
Kill the IP Shiggy loves because of a outsourced 3DS Spin-off in 2017 ? Come on, we already know Pikmin 4 is in development for Switch.
Nintendo doesn't own the Fatal Frame series either. They only own the rights to the three FF games the funded and published. The same is the case with this game.
That would demand more than 1000 Bomberman bundles from amazon, it doesn't look likely for a retailer exclusive.
I thought they did and Famitsu was the one not tracking them?
Sorry if i wrote wrongly there but i actually wanted to said what u said there lol.
It is the same case as Bayonetta 2 right where Sega owned the IP but Ninty owned Bayo 2 rights.
For Pikmin, as long Miyamoto is still around, i had zero fear for ita future. It is after Miyamoto retired that i am afraid.

Nah. It is Minecraft, of course, but Telltale games never were big hitters in Japan.
I think The Walking Dead was the only Telltale game to chart on MC with 3k sales or so.

Isn't that what we're doing in those threads though?
Being it about Capcom or another company doesn't really change much in the end.
I haven't made one of these in ages, but I thought people would be unusually interested in how Sony's first mobile game (through the PlayStation division) was going:
That's... probably around $100,000+ a day. We haven't had a lot of great data for 10-20 lately on the charts except for knowing it's been going steadily up in the higher ranks.

I think this is the best they will get. Mingol is a perfect fit for mobile, although I find it odd that they changed the 3 presses system.I haven't made one of these in ages, but I thought people would be unusually interested in how Sony's first mobile game (through the PlayStation division) was going:
MC does, Famitsu doesn't.

That...looks so so i guess? It is even below FE:H right?
Fire Emblem is at #19 on the top grossing charts. EG is at #14. We'll have to see how EG legs out over the next couple of months. Looks like a good start though.
EDIT: Fire Emblem of course had a much more explosive start when it launched. But it's also a much bigger brand at the moment.
This is so mega, man

I don't know what microtransactions Everybody's Golf is using.
I remember hearing it was mainly cosmetic which referred to getting costumes for your character.
If your character had RPG stats they could easily use Gacha to have you get items that affect your stats like Drive, Putting, Technique etc. Of course it becomes a pay2win game then.
But right now it's a Dead Rising
FEH swimsuit gacha lack lucina. Thats why they flounder lol. They need moar Lucina to save them.^_^
I feel it's worth keeping an expectations scale in mind with these things.
Like... I don't think Everybody's Golf is million dollar a day off the bat material.
Similarly, Square Enix places games that only hit these positions during events (or sometimes not even that high) on their notable hit list, even though they have some larger performers.
Or, put another way, if the next Everybody's Golf did 400-500K on PS4, I feel we'd probably consider that a good success, even if FFXV hits a million and Yokai Watch hits 3 million.
