Wouldn't most fans just buy both Resident Evil 7 and Revelations? Seems most fans just wanted the Switch version instead of the others. lol.

Resident Evil 7 was great but I never even realised Revelations got released. Anyways having played both 7 is far superior so no point in playing Revelations again on PS4 when I already played it on PS3.

These are wrong. Capcom in their quarterly said all these RE ports on PS4 and Xbox One sold over a million but if I'm correct they were released before 7 and at $20.

I think Revelations is superior and I bought it again specifically for the Switch. There, about the same weight your opinion had for me.

All I said was PS4 owners had the option between a port of a 6 year old 3DS game and a new acclaimed game and chose the latter. Switch only gamers didn't have a choice so they took what they got which is why Revelations sold more. If Resi 7 made it to Switch things would be different.

When the herd loses its way, the shepard must kill the bull that leads them astray.

No no no. This is spin. The guy specifically said Resident Evil fans.

Resident Evil fans buy the games right? So what stopped them from buying Revelations for their PS4 and Xbox One (funny that the emphasis always turns to PS4). You can't tell me that those fans were still playing 7 (Begin 2017) around the time Revelations (End 2017) came out. That is beyond ridiculous. 

The no choice thing is ridiculous too, since Switch owners have plenty to play, especially when revelations for the Switch came in november. That argument is long gone.

Thanks for the link! Very interesting list of the 86 million sellers: http://www.capcom.co.jp/ir/english/finance/million.html

Too bad that they sometimes put together different versions of a game and sometimes split them up.

Like seeing news like this. Keeps proving to third parties that they can do well on the switch.

Not saying Switch owners have nothing to play but there are no other Resi games on the system. You think I'd get a Switch if it had no games? Lol.
