So, they got away with more than they thought they would.

So it sold 15 instead of the expected 10 copies? 50% above your estimate is indeed 

Actually it seems they sold around 450k units.

That would indeed not be terrible. Maybe it's time for other companies to port their SNES games to the Switch too.

They need to release Dragon's Dogma for Switch. Easy million seller.

And I'm one of the people that helped contribute to its "smash hit".

With 450k units sold of Ultra Street Fighter II, Capcom made enough money to finance 2-3 Switch AAA ports. :)

Bet their regretting not bringing the mega man legacy collection 2 and the disney afternoon collection to the Switch now.

So people that were complaining when they said they would use SF II to gauge the interest of the market on Switch will now accept that as positive and not dummy Crapcom?

I keep forgetting Resident Evil 7 even fucking exists. It's like no one has talked it about it all since a month after it's released.

I liked RE7...but now that I think on it, it honestly didn't leave much of an impact after playing. I honestly can't even remember the names of the characters, and other then one cool twist at the end, I can't remember much of what happened. Just a bunch of spoopy houses with a lot of jump-scares.

As cheesy as the last few games were, they had a goofy charm I enjoyed...even if 7 was probably an objectively better game. Hard to really explain I guess. I think it's the difference between familiar characters and fresh ones.

Also so I'm on topic, nice surprise for Streer Fighter. Hopefully Capcom keeps supporting the platform.
