Forums - Gaming Discussion - Capcom leaves wii?

So I read the article about how capcom stated that the future is with the ps3 & 360 and thought "those are bold words". The article also stated that sega is moving towards more mature games (most likely not to hit the wii ex: Bayonetta), so what is going on? What did nintendo do to piss them off? I know that the comment was capcom france but I doubt this statement would have been made if capcom wasn't really thinking about it.

Capcom France != Capcom Japan. This has been shown over and over again as Capcom Japan says 1 thing, while Sven says another that completely contradicts what the Japanese headquarters put out in a press statement.

Now, there could be a hint of truth in what some guy from Capcom France said, but until Capcom Japan actually does abandon the Wii, I'll just take it as some guy talking.

The same can be said for Sega, as Sega claimed they were going to try their best to bring mature games to Wii, and bringing 2-3 games and quiting isn't really trying their best. I would expect a few more attemps before all is said and done.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

it's not nintendo, third party devs have been drowning the Wii with crap from the beggining.
look at what sega did with Nights. all AAA titles available on the Wii are all from Nintendo ( if not all then about 90% ). I lost faith in 3rd party games for the Wii. crap doesnt sell no matter what system its on



my signature went on strike, it's demanding 3% raise

Was it that bad? Most of the RE games are pretty good (except for Dead Aim).



Capcom expect spkybory to sell like mario, Capcom expect RE:DC sell like Mario Kart. If it don't it is considering a mega flop.

16,000 was for france, where they are closer to 4m units sold. However, 80k (in Others) on a ~25m userbase is really sad too.

Considering that Capcom found a home for what is currently the second best selling home console game in Japan on Wii, i don't think they'll be backing off anytime soon.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

Actually, Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles is selling better than Bionic Commando on the Xbox 360 or the PS3. I wonder when they are going to complain about those sales on the HD System. They did promote the game by releasing Bionic Commando:Rearmed on the Xbla and the PSN. They also released a demo of Bionic Commando. Yet it still bombed. Now, What did they do for Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles? Reused assets from Resident Evil: Umberlla Chronicles, including the engine. Yet they did not go out of their way to promote the game.

By the way, Dark Void Zero is a DSI ware game that is being used to promote Dark Void for the Xbox 360 and PS3. Both will be released This month. Now what exactly did they do to promote RE: Darkside chroncles? I wonder?

 



If Nintendo is successful at the moment, it’s because they are good, and I cannot blame them for that. What we should do is try to be just as good.----Laurent Benadiba

So full of truth this line is.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
