All this is funny, considering that the PS version of these games have outsold its counterparts by a usually large margin. Hell even the 360 version of RE5 outsold RE4 for GC |
ports don't usually sell as well anyways since most poeple who would want the game already have it. your second point comes to no surprise seeing as how the 360 has what like twice the install base of the GC with probably more of a harcore base anyways.

yeah your right, they dont usually sell, but last i checked. RE4 PS2 version killed the GC one and even the Wii version killed the GC one (not the PS2 one). And the PS2 version of CV killed the DC one. Funny you say Capcom doesnt think sometimes and you are right. RE4 kinda had no buisness being an exclusive to GC in the first place, why miss out on sales and buisness, because this Mikami guy feels a certain kinda way about SOny? It's good that Capcom came to there senses and said "why the hell are we not putting one of our triple A series on the best selling console by far?" We can go all day about poor Mikima leaving and how it hurt the series, its all irrelevant. Money talks BS walks.

"you're" not "your". and once again in this situation seeing as how the ps2 version came out only a year after the gc version, there is still plenty of audience (we can now label the gc version of the game a timed-exclusive) and seeing as how the ps2 had like what 4-5 times more user install base than the gc it's no surprise that it outsold it. Ps2 also had a much larger install base than dc and Wii has a much larger install base than gc.
And its pretty common knowledge that RE4 is better than RE5 sooooo whats up?
|
which makes it eve more silly that RE4 was ever a timed exclusive and I believe that Mikima wanted it to remain exclusive, but the heads of Capcom (and rightly so) said nope! Should have been multiplat IMHO.
People keep saying this and for argument sake i agree, but you know what? Money talks and to Capcom RE5 was the better game because it SOLD better in a shorter amount of time. So yeah whats up?

Its not silly to Nintendo. Exclusives bring appeal to a console. But I understand why they ported it but it was a win/loose situation for Capcom not a win/win but I don't think they cared about Mikami anyways.
And yeah it did sell better but the playing grounds aren't fair. two different generations and all you now
