earthbound and fire emblem are not popular series, you should have foreseen them being outsold one day dueto limited stock
| Dr.Henry_Killinger said: But then how is that at all different from TitanFall with the addition of Userbase disparity? |
Titanfall is one of the best selling games of 2014. And the publisher is EA, which launches more games in Japan than local publishers in the West.

Not talking about SFV. In general Japanese devs don't cater to Western gamers that much. That's what I'm talking about. |
Western developers don't cater to Japanese gamers either, the two are just too different. Its hard to cater to both without compromising the identity of the game. The plain fact is the vast majority of western gamers that are open to Japanese games are on PS, not Xbox.

All true, but what does that have to do with the relationship b/w TF and SFV's exclusivities. SFV is an unreleased 2015 game after all..
Both Respawn and Capcom don't have the resources to develop for multiple consoles (Microsoft gave Respawn, Money not EA)
Both TF and SFV have the biggest fanbases on their respective platforms. (FPS on Xbox, Fighting Game on PS)
Both recieves a "bag of money" rather than taking a chance on the competition. (meaning the extra 5mil/7mill is disregarded)
Both recieves development help from the company which they are on exclusive on, consolewise.
Really, they both seem to be identical situations.

Swery disagrees with you.

The market agrees with me.

You are bringing SFV to this conversation, I didn't bring it.
SF series sold more than 8 million copies since 2009. Capcom has money to make SFV; however, the quick and sure profit from a moneybag is more enticing to them than taking risk on Xbox.
Street Fighter IV sales difference between X360 and PS3 is a little over a million. It's not like it sold 5 million on PS3 and 2 million on Xbox.
And I'm gonna stop here because I don't want to help you dearil this thread furthermore.

How much it sold?

How much what sold? Go look at all the Japanese game sales on 360. Notice how most of those devs have stopped supporting the Xbox. Now why do you think that is?
Hint: It has something to do with money.

| KingdomHeartsFan said: I'm assuming your talking about SFV. They needed that bag of money or the game wouldn't have been made at all, there was no choice about taking the cash or making the game on X1 also. They didn't even have the resources toport SF4 to next gen let alone make SF5. http://gaminrealm.com/2013/10/20/capcom-cant-make-next-gen-fighter/ |
Why the hell is Capcom so poor? Don't they make enough money from MonHun and DLC?
