So... Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite sells 8,000 units and people tell me that Capcom should continue making games for PS4.

Fifa comes out to the same amount in sales and people are steady saying Switch support is doomed. The way the gaming community and gaming business is moving is nothing short of disappointing.

On the topic of the game, I do not know what to believe. It was obviously sold out at GAME and on Amazon.uk so on one hand, I could say EA is sabotaging their own title. On the other hand, 8,000 is so low that I have a hard time believing EA went THAT FAR to sabotage the game. I just dunno anymore. Last gen port with lots of missing features... it is basically the same situation as Fifa on Wii U and it sold just about the same.

While I hope this is not the end of EA's Nintendo support, I would not be surprised if it is. It is obvious they do not have the same faith in their products that Bethesda seems to have in their own products so I have no idea how to feel about this situation. I really have felt like over the last decade, certain companies want Nintendo to fail and the best way for them to illustrate their desire for Nintendo to fail is by self-sabotage. Capcom released an overpriced port and set almost unrealistic sales goal for the game... the game exceeds expectations and Capcom's follow up announcement has been a another set of ports and they have expressed no real enthusiasm. Now it seems EA is making a shoddy effort, lie about the missing features, lie about the reasoning for the missing features, and potentially under shipping the game with no advertising... not to mention their complete lack of enthusiasm going into this release. Am I the only one that is seeing this?

Yes company is that dumb... they will invest some several hundred thousand on something intending for it to fail just to justify they not doing it anymore.
