Your absolutely right.  I think this comes back to budget management.  They can make some kind of Megaman game and keep it in a well thought out budget and make money.  But we both know monkeys run Capcom.  Hopefully we'll see some changes from them when they start bleeding money, unlike a certain other Japanese game company who thinks doing more of the same is a big change.

Yeah, definitely. It's all AAA(AAAAAAAAAAAA) or iOS now. And for the most part the Japanese just can't really compete when it comes to AAA. The big thing they should all look at, but especially Capcom, is how Ubisoft has diversified its portfolio. I think the downloadable "mini-AAA" model for Blood Dragon/Gunslinger/Child of Light would be perfect for them. It would let them experiment and make some of the sorts of crazy, inventive games that put them on the map to begin with, and do so relatively inexpensively (assuming Capcom has any talent left to do this kind of thing).

Otherwise the only hope seems to be younger companies like Marvelous and Gungho.

The expansion model from PC would do good for any developer.  I'm sure it'd be cheaper to make a more substansive game by reskinning an old one and charge 30-40 dollars would make more money than a map for 5.  Something like that aforementioned Blood Dragon.  Hell even that Infamous Halloween game was pretty slick.

I have no idea what happened between Sony and Capcom (plus Capcom and Nintendo) but the lack of Monster Hunter title had some major effect on PS Vita on a bad way. However, hopefully Sony will use it's core competence (in terms of gaming) and push some amazing titles from first party studios. Imo, if Sony got MH4 we would never had Soul Sacrifice and that would be a big loss.

I'm not sure, either. With Monster Hunter it could be as simple as Nintendo offering assistance with promoting the franchise and Capcom being annoyed by SCEA blocking Monster Hunter Freedom 3 HD. But it seems like there could be something larger. Capcom was all in on the PS1 and then pulled back a bit the following generation, giving the Gamecube and Xbox a lot more support than they warranted (not coincidentally, this is when Capcom actually did get into financial trouble). The Capcom Five was a very strange move, especially Resident Evil 4 which should have been a huge hit but flopped on the 'cube and forced the company to liquidate a bunch of assets. Either there's a little bad blood between them and Sony, or Capcom just makes really terrible business decisions for no apparent reason.

I don't think Sony "blocked" Monster Hunter Freedom 3 per say.  I think this entire thing came out when Capcom said "Hey Sony, Monster Hunter 4 is going to the 3DS... can you fix Ad Hoc party for us?"  and Sony said "Go fuck youselves". As far as Gamecube and Xbox support, not really.  Capcom generally throws games onto consoles to see what works/doesn't.  Xbox just got Onimusha 1 and Dino Crisis, that's it really cause they didn't stick.  Capcom 5 was directly because of Mikami.  That asshat had it out for Sony.  Though those financial troubles were from him which is why Capcom showed him the door.

Damn, looks like loading time from entering and exiting buildings in Legend of heroes : Sen no Kiseki on the vita is about 20 seconds, and battle start takes 10 seconds to load. Worth noting though it's 10 seconds on the ps3 for the first part.

I hope that Falcom patches that shit before I start playing the game next month (October 8 is the day I get back home ^^, Yahari ore game etc.. and LOH should be waiting for me :D ).

As for the Capcom discussion, the only game I've enjoyed from them for this entire gen is the first Lost Planet. i loved that game. Port that game to the vita and I'd buy it for the third time lol. Same for Square Enix and type-0.

Maybe. I really wouldn't be surprised if MH4 3DS was just the natural result of Nintendo and Capcom working together on MH Tri on the Wii.

Xbox got Steel Battalion, too. That one hurt.

Anyway, it's not like they didn't support the PS2 or anything. The games they ended up putting on the PS2 ultimately dwarfed what they put out on the other two. But it was just strange to watch them flounder around on two struggling consoles like they did. Letting a famous Sony hater like Mikami try to migrate the entire Resident Evil series to the Gamecube was beyond idiotic. I always got the sense that maybe they didn't want Sony to have too strong a hand and so tried to help out Nintendo a little bit, but maybe I'm just reading too much into it.

Maybe, Capcom and Square both try to get Sony bankrupt.  Then they screw up, loose a lot of money, then run back to Sony with their tails between their legs begging for forgiveness.  It's becoming a cycle for those two.

Is it comfirmed that SCEA had block the release of Monster Hunter 3rdp in the west?

I think is Campom who blocked ut release in the west because psp software was dead in this time



PS4 - over 100 millions let's say 120m
Xbox One - 70m
Wii U - 25m

Vita - 15m if it will not get Final Fantasy Kingdoms Heart and Monster Hunter 20m otherwise
3DS - 80m

We're talking about the HD remaster for PS3. Capcom wanted to bring it over, but there was an issue with SCEA/SCEE PSN and ad-hoc parties. From what Sven said on the issue, the hang up was with SCEA.
