>DBZ Fighters and Blazblue vs RWBY combined will not sell as much as this game
Why do people think Capcom is about to die?

It matters how? You're on their side op? You want to be right to increase your epeen?

Arksys shills have been out in full force with their RIP Capcom rhetoric.

SFV was a flop and Marvel will be too.

>>385196286
If SFV is a flop, what do you consider all of the weeb games that couldn't even break half those numbers?

I'm pretty sure most weeb games sell about 500-750k
>>
>>385196836
LMAO

DBZ fighter will most likely outsell it, those crappy xenoverse games sell a lot.

Also its not the fighting games that are killing Capcom, its their retarded AAA budget games they expect to sell like Call of Duty.
>>
>>385196836
Xrd Sign sold 400k and Rev sold 200k, and I believe these are just physical copies
>>
>>385196560
>Thinks flop is strictly units solds and not recuperating development/advertisement costs to turn a profit.
Look at the this little faggot
>>
>>385196707
maybe you should finish reading OPs sentence first before replying.
>>
>>385196947
In the end all that matters to a corporation is making money. Even an IP like DBZ can't stack up against Marvel. Both games will flop and will lose fans in a month just like every other Arksys game. Xrd is on life support, BB is dead and people are already losing hype for DBZ. Not to mention the DBZ beta is the same week as Marvel's release date.

Not even the biggest weeb game can make those numbers. Only anime games that reach past 1 mil are shounen jump games.

You really underestimate the brand recognition of Dragon Ball as a whole.
>>
>>385198145
Yeah a hard initial pop of units then it will die off when every shit brained anime fan in their 20's moves onto their next nostalgia fix because they can't accept all media isn't going to be made for them anymore. Hence why /v/, /co/, and /tv/ exist.
>>
>>385197816
>What is Persona 5
>What is the Disgaea series
>>
Consider the following:

DragonBall has brand recognition, but it is a fighting game first and foremost.
If you go to any place outside of here, including reddit, the expectations of the game lie somewhere between Naruto fighters and Budokai, neither of which were made with competitive playerbase in mind. Will people buy the game? Yeah, but you will very quickly see used copies pile up. Most people will not stay for GG mechanics.

Even when you get to competitive playerbase at its core, the game is going to have issues retaining it. Recall SF3 dying after US playerbase getting fucked at EVO. Let's say the playerbase grows and then decides to compete. Chances of someone getting top spots at EVO are slim, and given that ArcSys does not have a history of supporting the playerbase in the west (contrary to how MvC ALWAYS has massive sponsorships compared to other games), it is unlikely that playerbase will stick around.

The same can be said about BBCTB, and if you recall how much of a shitshow P4U is in general, no one is going to look forward to getting fucked 100 to 0 without some incentive in it.

Does MvCi look very stale and depressing? Yeah, sure. Is it going to retain its playerbase? Likely. Is it still going to get more competitive support than MvCi and DBFz? Also likely.

>>385198597
Disgaea and Persona 5 do not rely on netplay and competitive scene to thrive.
>>
>>385196560
Reaching their goals.
>>
>>385196560
SFV only sold a million in a full year vs Tekken 7 in just a week.

The original SFIV sold sold 8 millions and GG done with a small budget sold over 600k.

Capcom fucked up Street Fighter for nothing.

Compare keep RPGs in RPG discussion

>>385198731
DBZ is bamco and ArcSys, Bamco foremost, ArcSys are just developing the game.
>>
>>385199402
>ArcSys are just developing the game.
Which means it's still a fighting game. Everything previously said holds.
>>
>>385196560
SFV is literally a flop by Capcom's own metrics, you fucking retard.
>>
>>385199621
And nonetheless, it still outsold GG and BB. It still gets actual support and is still worth the time investment from competitive players.
>>
>>385195765
>DBZ Fighters in itself won't sell more than MvCI
you are fucking delusional, DBZ games sell like hotcakes
just the first Dragon Ball xenoverse sold more copies than MvC3 and UMvC3 combined (over 4 million copies vs less then 3). MvCI will probably sell even less because of it's bad reputation

Capcom games might dominate the competetive sccene but they aren't the super popular games you think they are.
>>
>>385198886
actually SFV sold 1.6 millions in it's first week and then only sold 2k in the next year.

also the original SF4 sold less than 4 millions, SF4 with all of it's versions sold roughtly 8 millions
>>
>>385195765
What on fucking Earth would make you think that DBZ Fighters, a game that is essentially riding high on nostalgia thanks to the DB Super anime, a 3v3 fighter with assists (a formula that Capcom changed for no discernible reason), and is a game that actually looks fucking good compared to Infinite, would somehow sell less copies than the dumpster fire Capcom is about to shit out? Do you honestly think that JUST because its a Capcom fighting game it will automatically do better than everything else?

Have you already forgotten about SFxT?
>>
>>385195765
Watch as this game get assassinated on September since Bamco pulled an Overwatch open beta on MVCi's release date.
>>
>>385195765
Capcom can't die as long as Monster Hunter sells, so they're immortal

>>385197816

such as dbz?
>>
>>385199528
I think he's trying to say that bamco will support the game in the west more than arcsys ever could
