Hahaha, it is fine only if it is PS4 exclusive 

Nintendo helping with Bayonetta 2 doesn't matter. The IP still belongs to Sega who had the freedom to make B3 a multiplatform game, but decided against it. The series is currently more recognizable than it has ever been, since in addition to Xbox and PS fans, it's now also well recognized among Nintendo gamers. Furthermore, the PC player base is becoming increasingly interested in highly regarded Japanese games. It's Sega's loss, really.

And it wouldn't be a stab in the back if Sega went multiplat with Bayonetta 3 after Nintendo's funding B2 (if that's what you're implying) assuming the deal was temporary, because Nintendo benefited from it as well.

SFII sells purely on nostalgia (and portability I suppose) but Nintendo has its fair share of "scamming" their consumers and overpricing their products. You just enjoy slamming everything Capcom does while turning a blind eye to shady Nintendo practices. Apparently, not even having their biggest series in Japan locked to Nintendo's underpowered platforms for an entire generation is enough to satisfy you! And nope! Sorry, but most Nintendo gamers were perfectly pleased with what they were getting on 3DS. Hell, MH World got trashed left and right for "straying from roots"

Again, MH was never properly tested on home consoles... How much do you expect MH World to sell in Japan? Give me a number so I can bump your post in 50 days! ;)

You're ignoring that MH is originally 100% a Playstation exclusive franchise, MH4 could have very well saved the Vita, provided they take advantage of the hardware. You talk as if MH has no presence on PS platforms, including handhelds. Y'know, similar stories were told about Dragon Quest XI, that the 3DS version would easily outsell Switch and PS4 versions combined by a good margin.. Well, look at how that turned out! (oh wait... I remember you downplaying that too, much to my surprise!) If Vita had MH, the existing fanbase on Playstation would have never migrated to the inferior 3DS. So let's cut the Nintendo saving a Capcom-in-distress nonsense.

Sony and Microsoft have no obligations to fund the game whatsoever. This should have been Sega's job. At this time, Sony has its hands full with funding Death Stranding, Shenmue 3's marketing (which is, ironically, another franchise killed by Sega the big dumbass!), and probably an unannounced 2nd party game from From Software. Demon's Borne! :D

I doubt Nintendo covered the costs of 2 extra million sales.

This has got to be one of the most ridiculous and simplistic posts I've read in a long time. But allow me to enlighten you with a few facts since you're obviously ignorant:

- Monster Hunter popularity exploded after the THIRD iteration on PSP (an expansion to the 2nd portable game)

- Online and Network gaming weren't standard to PS2 (you had to buy an external device), and Monster Hunter was still a new IP, lost among a plethora of excellent games on PS2. It did well with that, and the above point, in mind.

- Tri was tested at the best time, but on the worst platform. Don't be shocked if MHW outsells it in a single week on a much smaller install base.

- Yes, single games of the caliber of Monster Hunter can actually make a massive difference and leave a ripple effect, encouraging more publishers to develop games on the system it's on. That much is not debatable. Yokai Watch for instance was initially intended as a PS3 game, it may have ended on Vita if the handheld had a bigger install base and general buzz thanks to a hypothetical Monster Hunter.

- What does profitability have to do with popularity? By your logic, Switch is a terrible model for third parties since the environment and development costs it targets and are comparable to PS4, not 3DS. You were just complaining earlier about MH not evolving itself, yet now you've already called anything below 5 million a "failure" due to higher costs. It's like you want MH to be stuck to 3DS specs.

- DQXI PS4 cost more to develop, but it also sold at higher price. Square referred to PS4 sales to be "stronger" meaning: they were more happy with it than the 3DS version. Why do you so obsess yourself with these companies profits anyway?

- You said: "DQ XI on PS4 has much higher development costs than the 3DS version, so it selling less is proof enough that making these games for PS4 alone is not worth it"

And I never said anything about keeping games exclusive to PS4, or to any other system for the matter.

- This list you just put is cracking me up man. How does Switch being a massive success (deservedly so) relate to what was being discussed here?

I'm done with this thread coz it's starting upset people.
