Forums - Gaming - Capcom delays MH3, LP2, SSFIV to next fisical year

What the heck is launching in 4th quarter that would compete against MH3? Red Steel 2?

For that matter, what would be competing with SSFIV?

Not much as far as MH3 and RS2 go. SSFIV just needs the extra development time. Adding 10 characters to a fighting game requires a lot of development time to resolve any potentional balance issues.

Capcom demonstrating a keen business savvy once again. They started putting big releases in Q4 because it tended to be a dead are, so there is little competition for the gamer dollar. Now that Q4 is packed to the brim they just shift into the "new" dead quarter. Quite brilliant really.

Dark Void wont do good numbers... it was a smart move to lower the forecast for that title



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

I'm just happy TatsuCap hasn't slipped. Shame about LP2 and MH3 though, those were topping my Q1 list. :(

Hopefully Madcatz can get their act together and deliver a wireless 360 pad by the time SSF4 hits...



Fuck off, Capcom.

They're screwing themselves.

Now watch them release MH3 near....... Other M or Super Mario Galaxy 2. -_-

Switch is 9th generation. Everyone else is playing on last gen systems! UPDATE: This is no longer true. 2nd UPDATE: I have no Switch 2. I am now behind

WTF i was waiting for LP2
thanks capcom u just ruined my day

My thought exactly.

I was looking forward to playing LP2 early next year. Guess not.

Not to sound like a dick, but i agree with the move. Monster Hunter Tri isn't going to successfully compete with Soul Silver for my attention, so moving it the hell out of Soul Silver's way increases the chances that i'll buy it. I think their other moves were wise for more objective reasons (Lost Planet 1 only sold well due to timing. It came out in January 07, when there was pretty much nothing else on the market (only notable thing i can think of is that WarioWare Smooth Moves released in US that month), and Super Street Fighter IV will do better as a value product (they need to give you a reason to buy the game again), and so should not compete with the more premium games of that timeline.

 

Oh, and their new Dark Void projections seem more realistic. I don't see much coming from that game.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.
