| TheFacts123 said: The first SFIV did well due to good timing of the release. No one expected a barebone game that people would get screwed over via SSFIV. There's a reason why Capcom couldn't match the success of SFIV with games like MVC 3 and SFXT. Capcom damage their reputation that no one outside the Capcom bubble would trust them anymore. Why do you think Capcom could even fund SFV themselves? Pokemon has a far bigger fanbase than SF. Pokken Tournament is more casual friendly, won't have any shady DLC crap that SFV will have like the stupid DLC costumes that's being held back, and Pokken Tournament won't be barebones like SFV. |
MvC3 did really well for a MvC game, sold over 2.5 million. Spin offs never do as well as main series games. SFxTekken was generally not considered very good however, idea was nice but wasn't executed as well as it could have been.
Capcom could easily fund it themselves, in reality, but they seem to be getting help from Sony, for whatever reason that might be (remember the game is being released on PC too). It's one of their biggest franchises and they can't afford to make it sounds questionable considering they are currently in the process of making an unproven title in Umbrella Corps.
Pokemon is a bigger franchise, Pokken Tourmement isn't however a bigger fighting game that Street Fighter. We don't know if any shady DLC will come to pass as that might be the Capcom of the past. No one is denying both games will be big but one of them is Street Fighter, the other is a spin off.
Hmm, pie.
