@ FishyJoe

I lose more and more faith in you as a mod each passing day.

Because he hasnt't banned you for your trolling in the rest of the forum??

 

 

DMC 3 was the 3rd game of the series in the same console. DMC 4 it's the first HD DMC. It was a failure in terms of profits IMO, since it sold way less than the first DMC on the ps2 while (likely) having way bigger development costs.


You're forgeting it was released to a much smaller userbase...

 

You are forgetting that nobody cares about attach rates.

 

Try to learn what this means: PROFIT


Early PS2 development costs were huge as well so I doubt capcom are going to be disappointed. DMC4 strikes me as a game with average development costs, possibly slightly higher due to having to develop on two consoles. How is 200,000 in one week in one region a bad thing? I guarantee its better than Capcom were anticipating. It'll probably have 400-500,000 sales during its first week on both platforms (so pushing a million), almost definately break even point for a game like DMC.


This post is wong is so many ways......

For example 400-500k = pushing 1 million? You're a fool if you think xbox 360 DMC 4 will sell over 100k.


 I apologize, my point implied across all regions. PS3 has pushed 200,000 in Japan, it can easy do 100,000 in both USA and Europe. DMC4 will do double PS3 for 360 in US and similar in Europe, therefore, its likely the first week sales will be near 1 million when the two platforms are combined.
