Capcom said they where happy with the sales.
So how is that a flop?

Why would they ever go back to that?

>>387701026
Capcom sets really weird goals for their games.

>>387701026
>it only sold 4.8mill instead of 5mill
>FUCKING FAILURE
lmao trying this hard

if you want a failure then there is RE0 both sales and game wise

>>387701230

REmake and Rezero only sold bad because of gamecube, they sold good af when they were realeased in HD this decade

>>387701375
>its okay because they sold a few copies when they got re-released
>completely ignores that RE6 sold 1 million alone on nextgen consoles
you are pretty shit at this

>>387700217
Lol sure

>>387701709
re7 recouped it's development costs
re6 did not

it's not exactly rocket science

RE8 will be like RE7 but with more action and less horror, then RE9 will be full blown action and no horror, so you will have to wait till RE10 for something new

>>387701842
it obviously is for you because that isnt how it works

>>387700426
REmake 2 will be trash if it's OTS and i wont buy it

>>387701026
kek
it's their fourth best selling game

>>387701178
Sometimes they do; but here they didn't or at least didn't very clearly. They were employing 600 people to make 1 game; that involved a lot of outsourced and even if it didn't it would have been expensive. And worse than being expensive is the expectation is a benchmark for ROI, and that includes attach rates for DLC Capcom overprotected as well.

This was a flagship launch and it faltered. Based on Capcom's actual IR sales projections instead of off the cuff remarks from game producers saying "hey I want my game to sell 10 million!".

And it still failed so hard Capcom had to go back to making cheaper horror games.
What is so hard to get about this?
No matter what way you spin it 6 failed.

>>387702028
eh, in some regards

2 is far too easy but has good pacing and an enjoyable story by resident evil standards

>>387702117
So did all their other games then

>>387699952
But 7 was the old formula

>>387702147
Are you brain dead?

>>387702113
producers put money into a project
the project makes the money back
therefore the project is a financial success

bug mansion > lucas's area > first entering the mansion > daddy's part

>>387701975
Which means nothing in relation to sales projections when the units moved generate Capcom $2 of income on a steam sale.

Also as an aside Capcom's Plainum listings have been unreliable aggregations since forever. Not just that they sometimes do and don't roll up multiplatform launches into their sales tallies; but that they also don't list some of their games.

good thread

>>387702226
You forgot the boat and Salt mines.

>>387702192
the project needs to do more than just make money back to be a financial success, it needs to make more money back than any other other possible investment opportunities they could have used that money on

>>387700782
You forgot that it is also their most expensive RE

>>387702192
nope and you literally said
>re7 recouped it's development costs
>re6 did not
which also false btw

its development costs + profit
its is also LITERALLY written in the article that RE6 was to be the flagship of sales and they expected at least 5 million

for you simple mind to understand, its like if the next AssCreed game sells only 9 million instead of the expected 10 million

>>387702191

oh, anon. you ignore facts

>>387702367

reminder that this board also calls SWTOR "tortanic", a flop and a failure despite being a huge and almost free money making machine for EA since its release averaging an almost free +$100 million a year in profits

RE6 cost way to much to make so despite the sales it still failed.
Do you get it yet?

>>387702661
>the game had a 10+ million budget
that means selling 1 million covered 6 times of the development budget

it sold more than 4.8million by the end of their financial quarter
that means it covered the development budget almost 30 times over

>>387702885
it didn't, they didn't hit the mark as stated multiple times

>>387702918
sorry you cant into very basic math

>>387702661
I thought it was around 100 million budget?

>>387702959
so they aim for 10mil units sold and 4.8 is somehow making money

re6 rotted ur brain

>>387702996
lol no thats way to much

>>387703180
they aimed for 5 million and sold 4.8 or 4.9 from other sources

you cant even read properly, so im not surprised math isnt going either

>>387703282
They aimed way higher then 5million don't give me that crap.

>>387703282
so they didn't hit their target..............................

>>387702758
>RE6
>4th best selling
>IT DIDNT SELL ENOUGH
lmao

>>387702996

It had like a 200-300 million dollar budget, maybe more.

It had nearly 600 people working on it at once.

If a game costs 300 million to make and sells 5 million copies but only makes 250$ million, it's a failure lmao

>>387703359
again lean to read
they didnt hit the target by 100k and they expected it to be their flagship in sales

just googled Watch Dogs and Ubisoft expected 6 million sales like Far Cry 4 but it sold 10+ million
the EXPECTED 6 million sales covers the development costs + profit

>Don't act like old RE was high art.

I'm not but 7 felt like it was made for the Youtube/Twitch audience with the first person jumpscare bullshit

>>387703523
the controls didn't bother me that much but the bullet sponge enemies and the qte bullshit was really annoying for me. 6 was a decent and fun game for what it was though, especially co-oping

Do you come from Florida by any chance?

4 separate story line, tons of different locations & animations, 600 developers alone (not including magement or HR), voice actors, and maketeting.

It could easily cost that much, maybe 100 million at the lowest.

It needed 7 million to turn a slight profit and it didn't even do that. Now it sells for 10-20 USD

>>387703878
>re6 costed way more than the 6 mil they aimed for
thats 5 mill and please post proof

if the game had a budget of 60 million then 1million sales covers the budget
for your reminder Witcher 3 costed 46 million and thats a fully voice acted open world RPG

go back to school for some education for real

>>387704065
they aimed for 7mil and didn't make that there's my proof u sack of socks

specifically 6 fags because 4 fans and 5 fans don't do shit like this.

That's what happens when RE6 is a fucking Michael Bay movie, attracts the morons who like that shit

>>387705104
Then why did they themselves call it a failure?
Explain?

>>387705104
It could have been there best selling game and still been a failure depending on how much money they sank in.

Having over 600 staff members and more than two thirds of its overall sales come at a discounted price isn't a healthy outlook. It's why Capcom called it a failure. They spent more than the got back.

RE7 they spent a tiny amount on and only had 120 staff working on the games. It sold a fraction of RE6, but because of how cheap it was, it turned a profit as soon as it launched.

>>387705601
not sure, why didnt COD keep the cold war era and kept making Black Ops 1 games when it was the best selling game ever amde?

6 failed because Capcom was retarded and put every penny into 6 and it went terribly for them.
Also 4 and 5 are better then 6 in terms of action RE.

>>387705731
Cod is still an action game series you retard.
Cod isn't a survival horror game now that's not how it works.

>>387705731
If RE7 is as similar to RE6 as Black Ops 1 is to Black Ops 2 then I'm sure you'll love RE7 Anon.

lol no it was a top selling game so the clearly means it sold well lol the budget was clearly just 10 million dollars what a retard

>>387705791
>Also 4 and 5 are better then 6 in terms of action RE.

they are better games. None of this "multiple campaign" crap. Better controls, no stamina/skill system.

>>387703746
RE1 on PS1 had jump scares too like with the dog bursting through the window, or the dog outside the old mansion. RE7 barely even had jump scares and had a good atmosphere.

>>387705612
Yeah pretty much this...RE5 sells more than RE6 and you dont see they being retarded.

>>387702367

Are you talking about RE6 or RE7 with the 5 million number?

Because RE7's goal was 4m. After RE6 failing to perform the 7 million initial target, RE7 received a reduction in production budget and sales forecast

Capcom is recovering any losses from RE6 with re-releases and ports. Taking the Xbone and PS4 launch, they've exceeded their initial target. 10 years down the line they'll keep porting it.

>>387706737
5 million is RE6 smartass
https://www.destructoid.com/resident-evil-6-is-officially-a-failure-243965.phtml

>>387703734

200-300 million is more than the production budget of a majority of summer blockbuster films. That's more than a majority of Marvel's films.

Where the fuck is he getting his numbers?

>>387707065

Whatever would be enough to completely destroy modern capcom, and force them to only release ports and make deals to public exclusive games (SFV & DR4)

>>387706996

There was nothing smart ass about my post you mongoloid. I asked a genuine question.

>>387705462
Going off this we have:

**RE5: 9.5 Million copies
**RE6: 7.9 Million copies
**RE4: 6 Million copies
>RE2: 5 million copies
**Resident Evil: 5 million copies
>Resident Evil 7: 3.7 million copies

>Operation Raccoon City: 2.5 million copies
>Revelations 2: 2.2 million copies
>Revelations 1: 1.7 million copies
>Outbreak 1: 1.4 million copies
>Umbrella Chronicles: 1.1 million copies

> = Single SKU/No release
** = Includes releases/alternate versions

Darkside Chronicles, Gaiden, Mercenaries 3D and the survivor games are all missing because they sold under a million. Interestingly, Revelations 1 is missing its original 3DS version numbers because that was counted as a different SKU and sold less than a million so it was not included on this chart. Other re-releases not counted in this includes the gamecube ports of 2, 3 and CV, the 64 version of RE2, the PC version of RE4 and the RE4 HD console release (that is so far the only HD re-release not to sell a million copies.)

>>387707627
