That broken Pokkén. Why is it that so many websites can't process diacritic marks?
Also, is MvsC Infinite a flop there? 16th the week of its release, that's not good news.
Pokkén DX did much better than MvsC than I expected, could be just in the UK though, but Pokkén DX is still a port.

Yes, absolutely, games outside the top 10 are generally well under 10k, which would be incredibly bad. Unless my eyesight is terrible, it looks like the Xbox One version didn't even chart, which is...wow...what a disappointing result.

I was expecting this game to underperform, but this is way below my expectations. If the game is like this everywhere else, we'll have an even worse case than SFV in our hands.

It's rebellion against a completely useless and also wrong usage.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

The UK numbers are likely to be much, much worse than SFV, at least. Like you, I expected a soft launch but didn't expect anything this bad. Hopefully Japan buys more than 10k of the game, or it might not even get the DLC characters I hoped for. What a shame, Marvel vs Capcom 2 is one of my favorite fighting games of all time. Infinite isn't nearly as good, but the gameplay is decent, at least (I rented it this weekend). I was hoping a few years of DLC would make the game more enjoyable. If the sales numbers are just as bad everywhere else, that future DLC may be in doubt.

Why would you want that, though? Doesn't it already have 30€ worth of DLC right off the bat? Didn't they learn nothing after SFV? Just release the complete game, and worry about the DLC after some time has passed. This game feels almost as incomplete as SFV did. Not to mention having to deal with Disney/Marvel's bussiness decisions for their MCU.

Fair enough, I didn't phrase myself well. I don't WANT to pay for DLC characters, I just wanted it to receive more characters who should have been in the game to begin with, so that I could buy the eventual Ultimate edition or whatever in a few years and actually enjoy myself. I agree that the game is incomplete, which is why I (and apparently a whole hell of a lot of other gamers) didn't buy it, but that doesn't mean I want the series to be completely buried and dead.

Right, they could actually make an Ultimate MvC Infinite. I guess that's an inevitability, but I fear Capcom will just do what they did with MvsC3, and stop supporting the old one after the upgrade releases. And with new DLC fighters that you have to buy too, maybe even in packs so that you can't just buy the one you want. It happened with MvsC3, to SF4 and it will probably happen to this one.
