People thought resident evil going exclusive on GameCube was bullshit and we know what happened!
If capcom is hurting for money why not make it exclusive? It could generate them some profit plus they could maybe port it at a later date

At least GC sold 4 times more than 360 in Japan, and also WiiU sales recently has surpassed 360 in japan

RE5 and RE6 sold more on PS3 than 360. So it is hard to believe that a game that naturally sells more on Sony platforms is going to become an One exclusive, that everybody knows that will have low sales in Japan.

It would mean Microsoft offered a better deal

The only way to make RE7 an One exclusive would be a generous amount of money from MS to Capcom.

Well we know how desperate Microsoft is. They're known for their cheap tactics at hostile take overs and securing exclusivities. 

Let's be honest though. Although Resident Evil has never been exclusive to one platform, people wil common sense knows where it sells the most. That's playstation. 

Don't believe me? Refer to the VGChartz search button and you'll see the recorded sales. Even if it's not totally accurate and just estimations, we'll still have an idea what the total numbers are.

Not to mention  the review scores are higher on PS1, PS2 and PS3.



That would be a terrible idea.



If this is true then people of N4G will explode with tears along with this site.



I think M$ is making huge losses on these deals.

Sony would have to pay less for exclusives like resident evil because it sells most on sony platforms and the ps4 has a huge lead on xb1. Some titles are selling 2:1 on the ps4 so microsoft would basically have to pay for the dev. + loss in profit due to it not being on the ps4.

Sony would just have to fund the game and let their console do all the profit making for capcom.

Capcom, like ea would have to be stupid to not bring the game over to the ps4, or ps3 if crossgen, If they do they are missing out on atleast 5 million sales from PS and thats a huge loss of profit that IDT MS is willing to pay.

Maybe MS got lucky with ea due to their sleezy deceptiveness of "analyst saying xb will outsell the ps4 that's how they got exclusivity" bullshit. We all saw how that went lol. PS4 still has the hype and that is also selling games and titanfall lost a lot of hype due to it not being on the ps4 and will probably cost ea BIG in the long run because ms has already lost a lot of marketshare going from virtually even to loosing by big margins now. We aren't going to see the mass effect or bioshock on ps3 selling less than xbox version anymore.

Guys we should all know that if there is any truth to this, it will be timed. Maybe DLC exclusive. No more and certainly no big deal.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles. 

 

Wrong about the PS3. The 360 was at 83 mill in Jan. Just because VGC has a slight bias toward Sony doesn't mean that the 360 hasn't sold more than the PS3 worldwide. There is 'real world' numbers and then there is 'VCG" numbers.

Calling for Megaman story all over again, Some pissoff people will start a kickstarter raise million and make resident evil good again :p


Yea, no need for kickstarter...

It has already happened; That pissed off person was Shinji Mikami and the game is The Evil Within


Nan, the kickstater use is only a visual kick in the nuts for capcom. 

Like how Migthy n.9 did so well ( **Capcom: No one as interest in Megaman anymore**)



first of all I didn't even know that 6 was out (was it any good?) And second NOOOOO!!!
i need it on my WiiU!



Switch!!!

In the west not a single shit will be given, Japan might be upset, the only place in the world still interested in this cluster fuck of a franchise.
