Will Capcom be able to retain relevancy in this gen?

Leaving out the "you don't understand business" comments and backing up your statements with sales numbers would help out a lot.

For example, saying Street Fighter flopped just because it fits your argument doesn't make it true. All versions of SFIV sold approximately 7.5 million units. I don't see how that can be considered a flop.

Resident Evil went from 7.5 million for RE4 to 8.3 million for RE5. Yes, it took a big dip to  4.46 million copies with RE6 but it's a bit premature to write off the franchise just yet.

And how about street fighter x tekken ? And I guess you have a point with resident evil but still most of the franchises from capcom flopped so my point still stands ... 

SFxT was a cross over that didn't quite work (the game had issues from what I heard), it's not part of the Street Fighter main franchise. It shouldn't damage the SF franchise since SFIV was wildly considered as excellent.Other crossovers have had better fates like Marvel vs. Capcom 3 for instance.

I agree with you that some Capcom franchises have taken a serious hit (DMC being one of them) but when you start off by labelling all their IPs as worthless and then proceed to attack someone saying differently by saying they don't understand business, you're not exactly inviting good conversation.
