They kinda did this to themselves.
I don't hate them and in fact I love their games, I grew up playing them, still enjoy a lot of the new ones (minus most of the recent RE games.) But when start throwing money around like they did, you start suffering some loses. Even if they things like using previous engines and keeping the production cheap, you will still see loses on every project started and cancelled.
If they actually started finishing games and shipping them out, I am pretty sure they would start seeing a profit.

You reap what you sow. By shitting in their fans' throats, they just asked for it. RIP in piss.


Make shitty games, you get the selfsame results. Make games that don't suck (see: original games that people actually care about) and maybe Capcom will actually see profit. ;)
 
Depending upon how you want to look Advance Wars and maybe Starfy might want to say hello.

Oh wait they probably did not make the money so all is good with the world.


And with that said I'm probably better off keeping my uneducated and unwelcome assumptions/opinions to myself ROFL :creep:

Wasn't aware of Nintendo's killing those franchises off, and Starfy? Never knew there were people that cared about that series.

I still stand by the fact that Capcom's newer iterations of old franchises has gone down the crapper. Breath of Fire VI, looks like crap. Resident Evil 5 and 6? Crap. The older games were not the abortive messes the newer ones are.

"If it ain't broke, don't fix it", but their maxim is "If it ain't broke, you're not trying"

I'm fairly sure Intelligent Systems said they'd make a new Advance Wars is there was enough demand. For Star Fox, no excuse. Same for F-Zero, the demand is here, but Nintendo isn't listening.
 
Or because Megaman games don't sell.

Can everyone please stop assuming Megaman makes gangbusters at the market.\

EDIT: Also

>implying megaman games have been good since Megaman X
>implying dragon's dogma is not one of the best games of the generation

(note this doesn't apply to you ShadowSoldier just all the general Megawankers in this thread).

I'm not saying Megaman makes tons and tons of money, but it makes them some money. And when they start 4 projects and cancel all of them, they're digging their own grave.

Don't listen to Guild. He searches every thread for "Megaman," then proceeds to say how Megaman is the worst thing ever, then leaves. Yes, we know Megaman isn't the most popular series. But take a look at the Kickstarter for Mighty No. 9, raising what, ~$4m? There's clearly interest in Megaman, even if it isn't actually Megaman. If Capcom did it right, they'd make a good amount of money off of Megaman Legends 3, period.

Lol Nintendo would literally kill off all their good franchises since they do nothing mature. No more Devil May Cry (yeah DmC was shit but the franchise could still have potential), no more Resident Evil (again, still potential and people were having a big fat wank over Revelations), no more Dragon's Dogma (which is the best new franchise in quite a few years), hell I wouldn't be surprised to see Street Fighter and MvC get the axe as well.

Also exclusivity to Nintendo consoles would be horribly wretched.

Get a third party to buy the IPs.

I just don't believe that Nintendo would do this. The best game Silicon Knights made was when they were under Nintendo's supervision which was Eternal Darkness. Outside of this, they are the textbook definition of a mediocre developer. Also remember that we got the best resident evil games when they were exclusive to Nintendo (Resident Evil 1 remake, Resident Evil 4).

so I guess re 2 and 3 (or even code veronica) dont count...
