In other news, Capcom still hates everyone. They deemed Darkstalkers as "non-profitable" despite Darkstalkers Resurrection making the best selling games list on US PSN store. Dafuq?

I'm betting either DMC, Monster Hunter, Lost Planet, or the Capcom VS franchises will be next. Street Fighter will be the very last thing they give up, because it's the only thing they see as 100% profitable all the time.

It's quite sad, honestly. I really thought Capcom would have learned from their mistakes of these past few years, but it seems they just don't care.

Personally I find that to be the complete opposite of Capcom. Capcom still put out quality products but it's their monetisation business model that fucks us over. I find Capcoms fanbase to be the root of the problem. Indecisive 'tards that don't know what they want and complain when they get anything.

Nothing has been lost. This generation alone we've seen HD remakes of Okami, Final Fight/Magic Sword and DMC, we've seen 3 brand new Bionic Commandos with Capcom showing their support by adding Spencer, Strider and Amaterasu in MvC3, we've seen Batsu from Rival Schools in TvC, they're bringing an update to Third Strike which is HUGE and some other stuff. What was merged?

For example:
RE6 was a step forward for the series yet people(morons) complain it's gone down hill or...more action orientated when it hasn't(people who haven't played it). They improve the mechanics and gameplay of RE4 and 5 to give the player full control and then dolts complain that they wanna go back to 1998 and crappy camera angels and bad controls.

DmC. Another great game that was hated on because Dantes hair was black. These are the type of gamers who complain about Call of Duty being the same crap year after year yet want the same crap year after year with DMC then complain when it changes(yet keeps the games mechanics).

Capcom are willing to listen to fan feedback and as it stands we're getting a new update to SSFAE2012. Plus, when it comes to fighting games in general, Capcom have always been in support. XBLA/PSN SF2 HF, HDRemix, SF3:3sOE, MvC1, MvC2 and Darkstalkers: Resurrection.

Not only that but Capcom are one of the few large companies willing to create and support brand new IPs. You look at games like Asuras Wrath, Dragons Dogma and Remember Me which have big names behind them are all extremely good games.

To say we've lost a series is some serious overexggeration. Lost Darkstalkers? We've just gotten a HD re-release(2 of them) on XBLA and PSN. Megaman MML3 being cancelled is bullsh- sure but that doesn't mean there isn't any support for him. Obviously since Keiji Inafune left so did Megamans presence but it's far from dead. Games like Breath of Fire, Rival Schools and Power Stone were always a niche part of the company that never gained the attention that a Resident Evil game or Street Fighter game did so from a business stand point, it's a safe move to make.

Capcom have done nearly(NEARLY) everything right. Not bringing ME2 overseas, cancelling MML3 and the insane business practice are huge problems but the games themselves are still what they're best at. It's the the fanbase that's the problem.
