Capcom updated the sales figures on their websites - 3.7M copies shipped. Ultra Street Fighter 2 nowhere to be found on that list so it sold less than 1M copies. |
Well what did you expect ? it's a SNES game sold at 40$ in 2017, it took 8 months to make the game, it didn't need to sell milions to make a great profit...
Miyamotoo said: Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers was Capcom's first major release for the Switch, but it came as something of a disappointment. Recycled content and a laughably poor first-person mode made it an unconvincing debut, despite the presence of that tried-and-tested Street Fighter magic. While the game received a somewhat lukewarm critical reception, Capcom seems to be pretty happy with how it performed commercially. In the company's recent earnings report, the Japanese giant claimed that the title had been a "smash hit":
No actual sales figures were forthcoming. The 2D fighter - along with Resident Evil 7: Biohazard and Monster Hunter XX - contributed to increased sales for the quarter:
Hopefully, the robust performance of Ultra Street Fighter II will convince Capcom to bring more content to the Switch in the future.
I hope this will help in decision that Capcom brings much more titles to Switch. |
Soooo we can count on Capcom suport on Switch from now onwards right ? they said that their support would depend on how successful USFII would be on the Switch and here we are with USFII selling more copies than expected from Capcom...
