Forums - Nintendo - Capcom: Will only port Street Fighter if it does well on Switch?

https://mynintendonews.com/2017/01/22/capcom-ultra-street-fighter-2-for-switch-will-only-come-to-other-platforms-if-sales-are-extremely-good/

Yeah, that makes a lot of sense? If it does well on the Switch, we won't make more games on it, we'll just port our only Switch game to other consoles! Why do third parties always have to be this difficult? So basically if it fails to sell or it sells well on Nintendo, they'll port it?

So if Nintendo fans don't buy it, Sony and MS fans will suffer? What kind a logic is that?

Games industry logic. Just like putting bad games on a platform and when they don't sell, you're not putting the good games there anymore, because apparently they wouldn't sell either.

Nintendo games sell only on Nintendo system.

Well if Capcom do put it on the other consoles, then they cant complain about bad sales on the Switch.

Yes they can, they just make a 180 turn and pretend they never said that.

They can't gauge the whole market, but they still can gauge the market with the Switch

If it does poorly on the Switch, it probably won't be worth investing a port

With Capcom's history of going back on their word, I can easily see that happening.



Are you guys kidding?

If something sells well then it's worth porting, financially. If it doesn't even it isn't.

P.s don't ever run a business.

So why is Ubisoft porting Steep?



They will make Nintendo fans pay 40 for it and then charge 15 when they release it on other consoles...
