No, I felt the SFV deal was bad for the IP, especially in its current form. I also dont think Capcom needed help releasing an incomplete game.

Dead Rising isnt as established and has to launch complete. It looks like a bigger financial risk to me.

Bayonetta could only happen with funding from someone pretty much willing to lose money. I bought a Wii U pretty much just for that.

They needed the money to make Street Fighter V, the same way they need the money to make Dead Rising 4, being a less popular franchise make this easier for them, it is less development cost.

Bayonetta is from Sega, they don't needed the money for the development but they were not willing to invest in the franchise without the help of Nintendo.

I've discussed many times over and probably with you in the past. I believe SFV went exclusive for a big pay day, not out of necessity. I dont wanna argue about it.

I dont believe Sega felt Bayonetta 2 was worth the money. It probably wasnt profitable either as an exclusive for Wii U. Great game though.
