Their share is obviously inflated due to the recent success of MHW. It is bound to fall back to regular values sooner than later. Nintendo was at an all time high during their Wii + DS era, and we know how that turned out in just 1 year.  Alienating and angrying your fans is never a good thing.

None of this matters to me because, imo, Resident Evil died when Capcom invented a new IP and slapped RE4 on it. I won't be paying attention to that franchise again until it plays like the original games (RE-RE CV).

Which is probably never.

I like to own my games. That is why I will buy console games physical and not digital if possible. I do make an exception with games on PC due to steam.

Great idea pricing is a bit high tho. This is also what microsoft envisioned with the cloud.

Btw those that complain about bad internet probably live in the outback of australia on 56k, this is japan first they wont have any issues

Ok, and why?  What, pray tell, is there to this game that would make a port so impossible?  The game isn't that demmanding, runs 1080p 60fps on Xbone, and is highly scalable anyway to accommodate VR.  And it's not even close to the likes of Doom and Wolfenstein 2.  It could come to Switch in a very playable and quality form.  That would just entail work.  Something Capcom has been completely unwilling to put in on Switch.  And even their easy ports come with loads of unneeded asterisks.  

Because it's easier to always blame and bash Nintendo. 

Don't overestimate the effect that MHW had. Don't get me wrong, it was a great success for Capcom, and they should never go back to being Nintendo-only or handheld-only, but for every MHW there were a SFV and Capcom vs Marvel disaster. 

Meanwhile, on Nintendo platforms, they always had great success (MH on handhelds) or mild, profitable successes like RE on Switch, Phoenix Wright games, etc. Basically Nintendo is very risk averse for them, and they would be stupid to turn their backs on them, which is exactly what they are doing.

Capcom can surely fuck up majorly over night. So MHW doesn't give them much leeway. But I wouldn't call SFV a disaster any more. It's not doing great by Street Fighter standards in terms of copies sold, but as of December 2017 they were nearing 2.5 million copies sold, which is a respectable number. http://www.4gamer.net/games/283/G028399/20171213053/
Although that's not the main reason I say it's not a disaster. That's because even up until then they've managed to be profitable with SFV through microtransactions, and continue to expand the game with new characters, updates and costumes. That people apparently buy.

Marvel on the other hand is another story. Not only did it sell very poorly, but Capcom appear to have given up on that game, and moved on. They're not going to try to steer that ship in the right direction with updates apparently.

I bring this up from time to time, but Capcom, and any other major software publisher, don't simply look at raw sales data or even revenue for a franchise, and then call it a day. They survey customer satisfaction as well. Because even a game that sold an incredible amount can end up damaging a brand. And that in turn affects potential future sales of new entries in that franchise, unless they right those wrongs. Square Enix talked about how Final Fantasy XIII damaged their brand, in spite of good sales. And I can only speak for myself, but I bought Resident Evil 6 due to blind faith in the series because I enjoyed RE5 and the trailers looked good. Big mistake. And I no longer blindly trust that I will enjoy a RE game as long as the trailers look interesting.

I wouldn't be surprised if the reception of RE6 played a part in the change of direction for RE7.
Either way, it's quite possible that Capcom see RE7 as a bigger success than RE6 in this regard, because they have to look at long term prospects for a franchise.

I read the post, but I don't agree with it.

The person who wrote it mentions comparisons to Bethesda games being invalid because their engines are intentionally designed to comfortable scale down. But the poster neglects the fact that Resident Evil 7 is already designed with a very scalable engine for the purpose of the VR mode. It scales down quite heavily in order for the VR mode to run at a proper framerate.
And on that subject, the game runs at a solid 60 frames on both PS4 and XBO. When you have both a a game that heavily scales down, and a framerate that can be cut in half to 30, that leaves a lot more room for performance optimization for Switch than games that struggle to run at 30f on PS4 and where we don't know for a fact how it works when scaled down.

Don't overestimate the effect that MHW had. Don't get me wrong, it was a great success for Capcom, and they should never go back to being Nintendo-only or handheld-only, but for every MHW there were a SFV and Capcom vs Marvel disaster.
