Smart move by Capcom. Now the player base will not be split and they can go full on supporting the competitive and trying to get some more money in the scene.

@MeachTheMonster No one is saying that the company wasn't successful or influential. But 7 took them to a whole new level that NO company at the time really saw besides Nintendo (as a developer).
They were already close to that level which is why the fervor around 7 was so large.

before 1997 only Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Tetris and the fukking Oregon Trail were multi-million unit movers. 4 of those were Nintendo games when it dropped NO traditional JRPG was fukking with best sold games. It's STILL to THIS DAY the best selling console JRPG of all time.

Numbers don't lie. Go from selling 500k then move 5 million and say the game isn't influential, brehs :snoop:

Previous final fantasy's were million sellers. Not 10 but millions nonetheless.

And the parallel you are trying to draw between sales and influence just isn't there. Only influence it had was to make square rely on cutscenes/presentation over gameplay, which some regard as their downfall.

Don't they always do that tho?

-DMP-

To add to this and as much as I eventually get weary of the series when they do this, I repeat with this sentiment. This revision thing that Capcom does with SF last gen was a lot less moneyhatting than it was the gens prior, cuz each new game was only like an extra 15-20 bucks when they dropped a good 2 years later and added a lot of balancing throughout. Though for the latter part, I think they may have took the balancing a bit too far at some points and unnecessarily weakened some characters at the bytching requests of their fans. Gens before that tho, these "new" versions cost a whole nother game per iteration. If anything, that's DLC done correctly, not unlike that SFXTK fiasco tho.

I'm a bit puzzled that people are excited about this. Do you guys have short memory or something? You don't remember the BS Capcom pulled with the last game having SF4, Super SF4, Ultra SF4, Super Duper SF4 Reloaded, etc. Yet here are you guys eating this shyt up again.
shyt i only bought SF4
I ainy jump on that other shyt
Plus my ps3 was jaibroken :blessed:

from the home of coca-cola, i'm not referring to s
That doesn't mean they weren't a successfully studio beforehand.

TLOU is naughtydogs best selling game, that doesn't mean they weren't a successful iconic dev before they dropped the game
That aint what the fukk nikkas is arguing... not one person said FF wasn't a successful series before 7... We're saying the success of ff series after 6 campared to the success of 1-6 isn't comparable. Looking back 1-6 will always be overshadowed by 7-13.. dont matter if 6 was the best in the series or not.. 6 didn't move units like 7 or 10
