Capcom’s Yoshinori Ono has revealed in the latest edition of Japanese gaming publication Famitsu that the company won’t greenlight a AAA game sequel without over 2 million sales. Ono says that if a triple A title doesn’t achieve these kind of sales then they reflect on that and use their experience on other games.

“For instance, if a game doesn’t sell over 2 million copies, then we’d have to put the brakes on any plans for a sequel. All that means is that we weren’t capable enough. And all we can do after that is to reflect on the experience, take what we can learn from it, and try to apply those lessons on some other title.”

Translation:Everything that isn't named Street Fighter,Resident Evil and Monster Hunter will die

 

 

Say goodbye forever to all the classic Capcom franchises that you loved

 

 

Seriously will Capcom ever stop shooting themselves in the foot over and over and over and over and over again?

"And all we can do after that is to reflect on the experience, take what we can learn from it, and try to apply those lessons on some other title.”

 

Or you could apply the lessons in, you know, A SEQUEL WHERE YOU FIX WHAT MADE IT NOT SELL SO WELL. Holy freaking crap, this logic...

OK BYE HAVE A GOOD TIME

Boy oh Boy I'm waiting for Alpha Omega Sin's rant about this,the dude already have a list of Capcom rants and this will make it even bigger

Capcom, just go shoot your mouth and hands off. Then we don't need to hear all this stuff that makes 10 year old kids look like they can run the place better

R.I.P Devil May Cry.

ME!!!! and i just subscribe to him a few days ago lol

Didn't they file for bankruptcy already or something? I thought they were dead? Eh, this'll put another nail in the coffin. 

This is why we all hate Capcom.

 

R.I.P MEGERMEN!

That's very stupid. I could understand if it was a big franchise and they meant only for big budget games. But 2 million? Jesus...

The worse thing is Capcom could survive (and have been for some time now) on Monster Hunter, Street Fighter and Resident Evil alone.

 

Any one who expects a brand new IP to sell 2 million units is just asking to shoot themselves in their own foot. Nobody would risk creating anything new there. I'd hate for a really good game to sell like 1.8m copies and they be like, "oh wells buy 200,000 more and we might consider it" it's just a stupid mentality to have.

 

Silly Capcom.
