Capcom is perhaps the worst company in vidya, I mean how many time have they screwed other companies and over their own consumers? First it was the deal they made with Nintendo for 5 exclusive games on the Gamecube, they later ported them all to PS2. Then it was Monster Hunter, a series that was always on Playstation, everyone was thinking they would release the next one on the Vita, but they betray Sony and release it on 3DS. Then they bury stuff that everybody loves and wants like Okami, Devil May Cry, Viewtiful Joe, Strider, Ghouls'n'Ghosts etc. Then they go on to fuck their on games by making Street Fighter V, Resident Evil V, VI and VII Marvel vs Capcom shit. Then they go to betray Nintendo once again by releasing the next mainline Monster Hunter on PS4. Then the don't even aswer the fans who ask for more footage or anything about Deep Down.

This is a company that gives no fucks about ethics or the satisfaction of their consumers. Why are we still buying their games? Why are other companies still making business with them?

The only good thing it seems is that all their current games are underperforming.
>>
Bad thread.
>>
No, they aren't the worst,not even close.

They are simply incredibly incompetent. Which is why people shit on them so much, because they're really bad at hiding their bullshit.

If you want truly awful companies, look no further than publishers such as Activision. Who do shit such as slowly introduce microtransactions into their games, because they know that if they do it overnight people will get pissed; they're masters at avoiding controversy.
>>
>>381345376
Well, maybe you're right, but they are definitely one of the worst to do business with seeing as how many times they've screwed over those deals.
>>
>Capcom betrayed everyone

C'mon, these guys aren't as soulless as Konami with their own IPs. Even if they take their fans for granted an mock them like shit, it's not like every other company does that eventually. It makes money when they take a good franchise back from the grave just to make money with the tears of their nostalfags. Metroid is the current one.
>>
>>381344541
You are just realizing that now?
>>
>>381346009
I'm going to laugh so fucking hard when this new 2d Metroid turns out to be shit (Just see who's developing it and how many casual things they've implemented in the game).

This Metroid Prime 4 also has potential to be shit cause it's being made by a newly formed inexperienced team on Nintendo and some rumors say that it's being developed by Next Level Games, which did the shit Federation Force. Either way, things are no looking good, I don't get all the hype around the games seeing as how they are being developed.

Are you aware that before the 3DS it came, in this order, on PC, Xbox 360 and Wii?

I agree, Capcom IS most dishonest
>>
>>381346407
We're talking mainline, relevant entries here, not shit like Tri (which have little content) or spin offs.

And everyone was hoping for MH4 to be on the Vita, even after the announcement everyone was certain there would be a port. But they gave the middle finger to everyone.

They literally betrayed everyone company they have made exclusivity deals with. Just you wait for Super Street Fighter V to be released on XONE and it will be one more betrayalton to the list.

Should I be an hypocrite and say that I want every game from Nintendo to succeed? This is a company that abandoned its own current gen hardware in less than 5 years because of its sales. They don't give a fuck about their consumers. Now they decided to create Metroid games again but being developed by trash companies like MercurySteam or inexperienced teams.

So yeah, I want their games to fail and would be glad if they dropped the hardware industry, unless they start giving a fuck about their fans, their buyers and stop making practices that hurt the industry like microtransactions, paid online, DLC, Toys with DLCs etc

>>381348236
But it had shit content. It's more comparable to a spin off than a mainline. 3U is more of a proper MH game though.

No monster hunter has ever even topped this since Portable 3rd. Those are ridiculous numbers.

I expect 2-3M, if it goes higher it's a worthwhile success for them.

Capcoms been shit for awhile friend. Their only really good series is Ace Attorney, even then they only localize the main games now, not the other ones fans want

They are just a husk stuck in needing money to survive.

You can see bits of the good stuff but they are a long shot from the days of Viewtiful Joe and the arcade classics they thrived on

Street Fighter V and Mahvel Infinite look like they play great but they have so many cut backs and lazy development choices present in them. It's fucking gross
>>
>>381348317
But that's how Monster Hunter works, the first game in a gen has historically had little content, and that gets expanded upon as the generation goes on. Portable 3rd and 3U are essentially 3 with extra content, they're expansion packs.
>>
>>381348379

>>
>>381348423
HAHAHAHHA. Monster Hunter is a 3kk ~ 4kk franchise on Portables in Japan alone. They don't want 2kk~3kk, they want at least 4kk with MHW. Please, don't fool yourself, Capcom is a company that has high expectations for all of their games. They expect Resident Evil VII for example to sell 10 million and MHXX to sell more than 2 million in Japan. They are definitely aiming for really big numbers on Monster Hunter World, especially seeing other action games being successful such as Dark Souls.

Monster Hunter is their biggest franchise and what keeps them alive. They aren't going to "shelf it". But it would be really funny it Nintendo suddenly decides to forbid Capcom from releasing Monster Hunter games on the Switch after their betrayalton, that would really fuck them, I'm sure Yamauchi would have done that if he was alive.
>>

>>381344541
Is this the new way nintenshills are going shitpost about their asspain for monhun?

Capcom is not a good company, but keep in mind, they don't owe Nintendo anything. They made a deal, they followed through with the deal until completion. Then they moved on to what business they wanted to move onto. They didn't betray Nintendo. The contract time is up. No company should/needs to hold allegiance to one fucking platform. It's better for game devs to have multiple outlets to sell their goods and they make more profit that way.
>>
>>381348423
They're skipping out on at least that many sales by not selling on Switch AND the development budget is ten times higher than the PS2-tier assets they've been using this far. 2-3 million would be a fucking disaster.

>Capcom betrays other companies
You have no idea how the video game industry works do you? They are making contracts about projects and exclusivities with companies but when those expire they have every right to do whatever they want with their IPs.

As for their recent years Capcom is pretty low on budget. They didn't even had the money for SFV before Sony started somewhat funding it. People shouldn't be surprised when some of their games don't reach the same content or graphics as their decade old titles or that Capcom is ignoring their lesser popular IPs in favor of their more popular ones.

>giving everyone a game they want, even if it's a one shot deal, is fucking people over
You have a twisted perception of things.

>>
>>381349297
That would really fuck nintendo,see how well it went with the nintendo 64,also we are not limited to 1 or 3 consoles anymore,they could keep releasing in other consoles or pc the only thing who wouldnt give a shit or be still buthurtt about it would be nintendo fans.
>>
>>381349297
That would make Yamauchi a juvenile idiot.

>>381344541
Capcom dont belong to any of those companies so why should they just stick to one? they go to the one who pay better.

They're stupid, but they're not evil. The development teams are great though, which is why it's such a shame that their business half are dumb.
Again, they're certainly not evil. I would never put them among EA, Square Enix, or Bobby Kotick. They want GTA sales, and they're not afraid to admit it, even though they'll never get it.

Nintendo is the most dishonest company by default since they've spent approximately 15 years fine-tuning the marketing machine to perfection
>>
>>381350684
>First it was the deal they made with Nintendo for 5 exclusive games on the Gamecube etc...
if they really made a contract with Nintendo about actual exclusivity they couldn't have done that otherwise they would have to face lawsuit

They can't "screw" other companies over even if they wanted to
>>
>>381344541

Bitch all you want

Capcom fighters are still pulling the most viewers

MH World is gonna sell millions just for being the first major console MH in forever

Nothing you do matters
>>
>>381350854
It wouldn't hurt Nintendo as much as it would hurt Capcom. Monster Hunter is only big because it's portable, if Capcom is somehow forbidden to release MH on the biggest portable on the market, then they would be fucked, and even more so if Monster Hunter World fails to reach at the very least four million worldwide. They could always release their own handhelds though or create one with Sony, but I doubt they would be as successful as the Switch even if they had exclusive Monster Hunter games.

But it's not going to happen, the chances of Nintendo fucking with Capcom are very slim. There's probably already a new MH in development for Switch as we speak right now.
>>
>>381350949
He did it with Final Fantasy and any Square Enix's franchise back in the day. Then Square begged to release their games on the GBA and Yamauchi said it would only be possible if they released an exclusive Final Fantasy on the Gamecube, thus Final Fantasy Christal Chronicles was created.
