Wait, it's out?

Exactly.

10/10 marketing, Capcom

It's not our fault companies don't advertise their products

Well shit. I might just pick it up when it gets really cheap. Is it really that bad?

people are just sick of capcom's jewish stupidity also
>muh X men

WHAT THE FUCK. USFII Bombed in the UK, just how badly is MvCi selling?

>one of the biggest draw to marvel
>probably as big Spider-Man and Fantastic Four
>they drop them and suggest NOBODY likes them
What a blunder

fantastic four is nothing compared to xmen

Pretty bad.

The Bone version of MvCi didn't chart at all in the Top 40. That version likely sold in the hundreds. Steamspy doesn't even have the PC version at 30k.

It looks to have genuinely cratered in ways that even SFV would be embarrassed by.

Pokken seems to be doing better too. It came 5th whereas MvCI came 12th.
It's a shame this game has been handled so poorly.

Yeah you're right
>Pokken outsold SFV
>Pokken DX outsold MvCi
WHAT THE FUCK IS HAPPENING?

>We have a smaller roster
>We made the teams smaller
>We reused 90% of the assets
>Despite the shit roster, we locked the stuff players want behind a DLC wall (Venom and MonHun)
>Oh yeah we also dropped the fan favorites X-men
What could possibly go wrong?

>Nintendo's digital service is weaker
>laughs off idea of Switch port

Yet you ported MvC3 to the Vita.

Keep missing out on money Crapcom

Pokken 2 is happening. Hopefully as a 3v3 team battle game with a 30+ character roster.

IT MEANS PIKACHU STRONG

We've already got the 3v3 so we just need a larger roster, which isn't hard to do considering there's 804 of the creatures.

Honestly, sometimes I think Nintendo is better at advertising third party games rather than the third parties themselves, what with all the trailers in directs or their main channel. Maybe its because Nintendo is desperate for the third parties to come back to their hardware while Sony has a lot of support already and Microsoft just struggles with the japanese market.

Gameplay is enjoyable but a little buggy and some of the Stones are busted. At top levels, even Week 1, it's already harder to follow than most Marvel 3 matches. Of the six actually new characters that weren't in Marvel 3, five of them seem High or Top tier immediately (and X is the one that seems mediocre).

The visuals are uninspired and in some cases very bad. The best models were ones made for the game, and they're a minority due to how many assets were reused. The UI seems almost stock in how bland it is. The Story is halfway serious and halfway hammy and fails at both, while every big setpiece monster is killed in a cutscene and not in a bossfight with the exception of Ultron Sigma. The music is 90% awful in terms of both remixes and new music, and the voice casting/directing is distractingly bad (not one character sounds better or even as good as in Marvel 3, even though guys like Reuben returned for Dante and fucking PHIL LAMAR voices Dormammu).

I'm going to wait for a disc that has enough DLC on it for the game to be worth buying, and even then I'll wait for a cheaper Used copy of it.

blame ike ike perlmutter, he is litteraly a stupid petty jewish
I would glad that everything he is touching this year is bombed hard eunogh to fired him

Soon, Capcbros. Soon.

They already made bank on Switch with a lazy new edition of Street Fighter II, but I have half a mind they should put their most acclaimed fighting games on it rather than simply the most recent, I think more people would buy the former to have good handheld versions of classics than the latter if they're controversial or reviled like SFV and MvCI.

>even more devestating autocombos than in mvci
nah m8 i'll pass

>Jews getting fired
>Forgetting the Ike is still a major stakeholder in Marvel

Capcom is a fucking disaster.

I expect somebody buying them soon.

It's going to sell millions and the community will die within months and forgotten by the FGC in 6 months.

It's P4A all over again but with a bigger fanbase

>USFII is still expensive
>USFII is still selling
Don't do it Nintendofans, don't support it. Fuck by the NeoGeo games instead

everything he is touching is bombing. The only thing that's successful for marvel is the mcu and Feige had to go to Disney to get Perlmutter removed from being able to make decisions about the movies.

>Capcbros
Stop.

I honestly wanted both Infinite and DBFZ to be good, mostly because I wanted a Hyper Fighter to tide me over until the latter.

Infinite looks like a fun game beneath all the shit aesthetics and poor design choices, but I'm not paying $60 for a game with a roster of that size despite reusing tons of assets that also has some immediately apparent balancing issues. I guess one day if they put time into tweaking balance and put out enough characters to match UMvC3's roster (which should be roughly 3 Seasons-worth) I'll give a shot. I have enjoyed the early tournament play at least. I've got no qualms with Dormammu being a top tier in this game, or with Nemesis being a lot better than in 3.

>pokken beat SFV
>pokken DX beat MvCi
poetry

GAME WAS ALREADY PIRATED BY BASED ITALIANS

CPY ALREDY RELEASED CRACK

>game "forgotten" by crapcombronies

woooow such a tragic fate lmao

If they put an enhanced version of Marvel Vs Capcom 2 with a handful of new characters, people would fall over themselves to buy it.

But then, I don't think the House of Mouse would approve.

>Pokken 2 will bury Darkstalkers 4

At this point, you gotta wonder what it's like being Capcom right now. SFV bombed, MvCi bombed, RE7 bombed. They've killed literally every single IP they have. It's to the point where Capcom's sole hope of salvation is a non-portable Monster Hunter geared towards the West.

Not at all. If anything it's being overlooked.

But I don't blame anyone. The game is off to an awful start.

FRIEZA!
HERE I AAAAAAAAAM
SO SORRY
SORRY
SOOOOOOOORRYYYYYY

I don't even play fighting games, but somebody being autistic enough to care about this amuses me.

>UK
No, seriously. Why are we even bothering with using UK as any sort of metric of how video game sales are performing?

re7 was a pretty big success actually. About on par with re6.

>even more devestating autocombos than in mvci
MvCI's autocombos don't scale any more than normal. DBFZ's autocombos lead into strings/animations the characters don't normally have for flashy purposes, but are either short and do less damage on the whole or end after a point where the player would actually need to manually take over the combo.

Between the beta and the handful of small tournaments for the game, I think it's pretty clear that DBFZ has a lot of gas in the tank in regards to depth beneath the surface; the combo system is a lot more open than people seem to realize, and team synergy is going to play a large role based on how each character and the tag mechanics themselves are balanced.

Infinite has a good gameplay basis but for a "complete" game it's much rougher around the edges in regards to the balance of its systems. There's a lot of good concepts, but they seem to boil down to people using certain mechanics for very specific things like High-Lows while your partner's super has the opponent in blockstun.

Shit marketing for a shit game.

USFII actually sold extremely well.

Because the UK is Sony stronghold and Nintendo's weakest market. If Marvel can't beat a Switch port of a port of a 25 year old game, the game is fucked. If it can't beat a re-release of fucking Pokken in the UK of all places, the game is fucked. You have no idea how low of a bar it is to beat a Pokken re-release in the UK.

>Capcom expects Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite to sell two million units worldwide

I'm pretty sure the only reason SEGA and Konami are still alive are because of europe's obsession with Football Manager and PES respectively.

they should stop fucking with the games that put them where they are

M8. From Capcom's own sales data:

capcom.co.jp/ir/english/finance/million.html

>Resident Evil 6: 6.8million units
>Resident Evil 7: 3.7million units

In their launch periods they're both about equal though.

I really hate this game's soundtrack so far, it is like they picked up some leftover songs from GGXrd that were rejected for being too bad and just went with it.

None of the fucking songs fit Dragon Ball at all.

Pokken is actually a good fighting game for competitive play, so it's not like it's a case of "lel shitty anime tie in beat an actual fighting game", to be fair

chart-track.co.uk/index.jsp?c=p/software/uk/latest/index_test.jsp&ct=110015
Capcom: Gonna take you for a ride!
Game buying public: Actually no fuck off and die.

>better at advertising
>desperate

Way to undermine

Capcom forgot that you are supposed to market a game or else it won't sell. And shilling it on tweeter is not enough, because surprise surprise, not everyone uses tweeter, and even less people follow fighting game related stuff.

Did any of you see any MVC:I commercials? Because I for sure didn't.

>Crash is still selling.

My boi can't be stopped

if by FGC you mean Wond and other capkuks then sure. Rest of the people will be playing it for years and competing.

True and Capcom also forgot to make a good game. Can't blame Capcom Anons.

also worst than Pokken DX

Aren't they though? Its probably the main reason why they put effort into said advertisement. I like Nintendo as much as the next person but its obvious it has had a big problem in terms of third party support in the latest gens.

Should I take this as a sign that capeshit is finally falling out of favor or am I getting to hopeful?

Capcom whole approach to Switch is baffling, is like someone decided to Swipe the brains of Capcom and Bethesda this time around

youtube.com/watch?v=1w6QxhZJJjw

Capcom promoted the game alright.

>Erm....

It's TEXT. Just say what you mean and quit trying to be fucking cute about it.

Where did it place?

And yet they still own all the merch rights for Fantastic Four and X-Men.

They are literally shooting themselves in the foot over right issues.

I don't want Capcom to have any success in the slightest till I'm playing Dragons Dogma 2.

Someone photoshop Ugly Morrigan's head onto Todd's body please.

It's also a rerelease on a console that isn't particularly popular in the UK

More like, what DIDN'T they do wrong?

There was a time Capcom almost killed themselves by concentrating on Gamecube development. I'd imagine they'd be wary about focusing too heavily in a nintendo home (I guess?) console again.

C-calm down user, no need to be rude. *blush*

just buy the jap version it'll get the anime song like xenoverse 2

eat shit crapcom

>The FGC shilling hard because they don't want to lose their meal ticket.

Friendly reminder that the second most attended series in the FGC is a fucking party game on either Wii U or GAMECUBE depending on the tournament.

>Recovery frames? lol

>concentrating to have
>all they have made is a room for a 20 years old game
>and a port of a game that was original in 3DS and everyone and their

>Not World or West localized XX
>not fucking OKAMI HD
>Not RE:7 Golden edition

and dont bring in graphics, if fucking BotW and DooM can run on Switch after the sacrifices, so do RE and Worlds

budget title that's a high quality remake with three games in one (that HAVEN'T been released in the last five years) is a recipe for success. The success of this is almost sure to make activision rethink their spyro strategy since skylanders is on the way out.

Also for fans of the characters we can not get comic accurate costumes because capcom wants to redesign the costumes

To be fair, Capcom was stupid enough to announce a PS2 version of RE4 days before the GC version dropped. That alone killed sales.

Viewtiful Joe got fucked over and that upsets me because that game could have been a real hit if Capcom gave a fuck and advertise

i dont like spagheti put some farfalle please

hopefully this'll cause Activison to end up making a new Crash game

What I'm surprised at is that there's no a single Inhuman rep. Considering Marvel's heavy focus on them for the past few years, you'd think at least one of them would've gotten pushed heavily.

Also, why take Iron Fist out when the Netflix and Defenders series have made him more relevant than he's ever been? (though still not much)

Ah yes, the "capcom 5"

>One was cancelled
>One stayed exclusive
>The other 3 were ported to the PS2 almost immediately.

The only big names Capcom gave the gamecube were RE0 and REmake. Both considered sales disappointments in their time, but Capcom would kill to have those numbers these days.

I'm glad Spectrobes got a rep in this game

So what your saying is no one gives a single flying fuck about the FGC?

>Remembers last year when Cap/cucks bragged about 5000 people signing up for SFV at EVO.

>its a Capcom is a bunch of fucking retards episode

They had plans for more DLC after stormy ascent.

UK is all normies and pcfags so the chart are just fifa/cod console shit because all the pc stuff is digital sales

Check their website, Crash straight up replace Skylanders for their biggest franchises now.

It's now:
>Call of Duty
>Destiny
>Crash

Now all that is left if for WORLD to, not even flop, just Underperfom and Capcom will be back to the shit hole they were on 2012-13 near going out of business till Mon Hun 3DS printed em illegal amounts of money

>and it's open world
What exactly did he mean by this? No, really, what did he mean? I honestly don't understand.

>What I'm surprised at is that there's no a single Inhuman rep.
Who would work? Medusa?

>That awful Bendis' Mass Effect armor

After Feige left Marvel for Disney and dumped the Inhumans movie as a result, and giving the title of Inhumans showrunner to the same man who ruined Dexter and Iron Fist, and Disney giving it the death slot on ABC, its pretty much confirmed that the Inhumans push has flopped spectacularly.

>Gamora, Thanos, Ultron, and Carol all look incredibly good compared to most of the cast; Top Tier rounded out by characters like Jedah, Dormammu, and Dante
>X, the character who was chosen to be the one to show off first when the game was announced and was legitimately the most hype inclusion in the entire game, is mid-tier and nobody has figured out how to make him really work yet
>Meanwhile Zero got even more shit to make up for the fact that he can't do more than one lightning loop at a time in Infinite

>Nintendo owners don't want collections of classic Megaman games
>Nintendo owners wouldn't play a collection of Disney NES classics
>Nintendo owners couldn't possibly be interested in a HD port of a Zelda-like game with vibrant colors and made for touchscreen gameplay.
>Nintendo owners aren't going to want the next Monster Hunter

Fucking Capcom, man. Their stupidity is so complete, so absolute that it's almost beautiful.

...

I was looking for Andy so much that I didn't even noticed Hawkeye.
Pretty good.
