| SanAndreasX said: Games don't get made unless the developers have the money to make them. Any potential success SFV had would have been meaningless until Capcom had the money to make the game in the first place. Capcom didn't have enough money to make SFV and pay its employees and keep the lights on. Sony stepped in and bankrolled SFV with the obvious expectation that it would not show up on Xbox One, Wii U, or Switch, at least until x number of years had passed. I doubt that Platinum similarly has the money to make W101 on its own. That said, that point is moot. Until Nintendo relinquishes its rights to W101, it ain't happening. |
If you both actually believe that Capcom couldn't afford to make another Street Fighter game while still able to fund RE7 and Monster Hunter Worlds.. than I wouldn't know what to tell you. Street Fighter is one of Capcom's biggest IPs and money makers while it also probably wouldn't cost as much to make as RE7 and MH Worlds. SFV didn't exactly set the world on fire yet Capcom still managed to fund future titles.
