Wii owners BUY Tatsunoko vs Capcom and Monster Hunter Tri

at the End of the Month or whenever, BUY TATSUNOKO VS CAPCOM!

This will show that Capcom there is a user base on the Wii that likes Fighting Games.

and in Apirl, BUY MONSTER HUNTER TRI(3)!

This will show Capcom that yes we like the game and want you to keep making games like this and many others.

Maybe then Capcom will give out some more good titles for the Wii. As we all know Capcom isn't liking what they are seeing on the Wii.

I will not buy Tatsunoko vs Capcom because I don't like fighting games. And I will consider Monster Hunter Tri if it ends up a lot better than the past games in the series.

Probably not for the first one, but MH3 will be a definate buy if/when it comes out.

Being someone who hates standard fighting games but loves Super Smash Bros, I'm gonna give Tatsunoko vs Capcom a pass. However Monster Hunter 3, well this looks very good, so I'll probably buy.

But I don't like fighting games. :P

I hate fighting games, and MH3 has me worried....

it's a beautiful game, but it looks like it has to constantly load, and the combat looks extremely repetitive and boring (at least to me). I really want to pick it up.... but I'm not into games that you have to grind. I've never really played a game like that to be honest, but it just doesn't seem like I would like it.

I'll probably pick it up just to give it a chance....

Should I or shouldn't I...? I think I'll keep this one brief.

Sorry, I don't buy games out of sympathy or to prove a point. :P

As for Tatsunoko VS Capcom, it's more of a bargain bin game for me, which I foresee it ending up. I don't think it'll have as big of a reception in NA, mostly because a lot gamers are afraid to try anything new, or just don't like fighting games.

MHTri looks pretty awesome, though. Will more than likely get that.

No

You wait three months and have the prices drop

Wii games drop the fastest so the user should take advantage of that

Given all the major AAA releases this Spring and my ever-growing Backlog, I'll probably pass, but I hope they do well.

Anyway, I haven't played a Monster Hunter Game yet, but I will definitely get it.

Aren't you the one who's always saying that you won't buy used games because they hurt the industry?

Because there isn't exactly much difference between that and refusing to buy games until the publisher gets desperate and lowers the price. Both save the purchaser money at the publisher's expense.

Haha good intentions TC but bad execution. People generally dont like to be told what to do with their money so you shoudlve said "Dont BUY Tatsunoko vs Capcom and Monster Hunter Tri":P

Glad I'm not the only one that found that odd. Granted, buying a bargain bin game is probably a little bit better than buying it used, but the significance of the game's purchase is still severely reduced as far as the publisher is concerned when it has already dropped the price of a game because of lack of demand. Heck, even buying it used means that a retailer is aware that the game is doing well, perhaps prompting it to order more copies of the game.

Completely different

Buying a game after a markdown still goes to the maker of a game

Buying a game used gives no money to the maker

Also when you buy a game that's marked down it still goes down as a sale for a certain title, when you buy a used game the publisher has no idea of the sale

if capcom wanted my money they should of released sf4 for wii...

Point is, Jason's still wrong.

Wii games have been going on sale the week of their release.

I've been pointing that out a lot, and a lot of people own games thanks to it.

_BlueDuck_

I am in the same situation, and to be quite honest I didn't even know what Tatsunoko was exactly since I don't follow Japanese animation. :P

SirSpudly

No, Jason is not wrong lol

He knows that games go on sale the first month of release somewhere because they want your business

The thing is that they drop farther over time, unlike other games that drop at launch but then have a steady price for a long time

How about I decide what to buy, not you?

Monster Hunter Tri is on the quite possibly list, but I'm gonna have to pass on TvC. I'm gonna be supporting 3rd parties this year, though, if that's what you're trying to get at TC.Arc2012

No, identical.

When a game first hits shelves, the price given to it is what the publisher would really like it to sell for. When the price drops, this is the publisher saying that the game is no longer selling satisfactorily. The faster the price of a game drops, the quicker it has ceased to sell satisfactorily in the eyes of the publisher, the worse the venture has thus gone in the eyes of the publisher, and the less likely they are to consider it a success. Anyone who buys the game at that point is not providing the publisher with as much money as they had hoped and anticipated. Price drops are damage control, plain and simple.

Therefore, by refusing to give the publisher what they want for the game, and by holding out until the price drops regardless of how you feel about the game, you are actively contributing to the likelihood that the publisher will consider the venture a failure, and thus to the likelihood that they will not make a repeat venture. Whether you give the publisher no money for their game or whether you give them ten dollars less than they wanted, it is still the case that the publisher is not getting what they wanted, and that the publisher will be less happy as a result. Hurting the industry less than other people does not mean you are not hurting the industry.

Monster Hunter 3

I am planning on getting Monster Hunter 3, but I'm not sure about Tatsunoko vs. Capcom. I don't enjoy team-based fighters, I'd rather have a 1 on 1 match like Street Fighter.

I feel bad for TvC. From what I have read in this thread. This excellent game is going to die at retail. Just like Okami, Muramasa, Zack & Wiki, Little King's Story and the likes. Tis a shame:(gamefan67

lol I wouldn't make an assumptions based off one thread, and Okami died at retail its first time out, a port years lately certainly wasn't going to set the world on the fire. The other 3 games were small market release no one ever expected them to move more units than CoD(being sarcastic)

Very well said Gabu, I made a point similar to this a few weeks back about publishers should not be so quick to fold and drop the price of thier games. One because Wii games don't do the huge opening day followed by a 200% sales decrease and two its not like you have to sit on the shelf next to Bioshock one week, Final Fantasy the next and another 2K game the week after that. Wii doesn't get that kind of support so retailers cant really be pressuring them that much about having thier games removed from the shelf.

Thats what I loved about Capcom vs SNK you could have 1 v1; 2 v 2; 3 v 1 it was great. But the switching mechanics of MvC series was fun to use as well, you can do some crazy combo's.

Sepewrath

Another downside to this game is that I don't like most of the Tatsunoko characters either..I need to play the game before I make a decision.

Honestly, I don't care about either of those games. Capcom doesn't care about the games either, I'll be surprised if I see one advertisement for either of them. They're are sending these games out to the slaughter and will blame Wii owners because they didn't sell. I for one am tired of this crap, how many publishers have done that this year? Too many to count.

It still amazes me that developers are this stupid. Not only was The Conduit crap, it also didn't do anything unique - which is why it failed. The fact is most "core" Wii owners are also multi-console owners. Why buy rail shooters and crap FPS on the Wii when you can buy Bioshock, Killzone, Halo, etc on the other consoles? Not only can sword fighting in Red Steel 2 not be done on any other console but the Wii, it also features great graphics and a cool protagonist - which is why people are excited for it. It's not just some game thrown together and then presented as a game Wii owners should be lucky to get (which is the attitude from most developers and publishers), it is a legitimate unique effort by a team with passion that looks fun to play.

Haha, well I'll buy the games if I think I'll enjoy them. ;)

No I'm sick of anime,the amount of anime I see on the internet I adblock with firefox.I don't want Wii to have whiny wapanese over wii speak trying to shout KAWAII at the top of there voices.Capcoms only good game for Wii was Megaman 9,RE4,Zack and Wiki(possibly).Toxicamo

Because the only word people use in Japanese is kawaii. :roll:

Never quite understood how people say they don't like a character. Its not a TV show its a fighting game. Whether or not you liked Yatterman the show is pretty inconsequential in the scope of a fighting game that has nothing to do with the license. And when it comes to the fighters alot of the characters from the Tatsunoko side and some from Capcom side are loosely or obviously based on fighters from past Capcom games. Sepewrath

Even though I play multiple fighters, I wouldn't consider any of them among my favorites except for Street Fighter, and that is because I love the characters and the reason I like them is because Capcom brainwashed me as a child lol.

You say all that and then you include Zack and Wiki as a (possibly?) good game?

Perhaps you've forgotten what it was like? :P

Whoa relax people don't take things so offensive when threads like this one appear. If you don't want to buy the game that the TC is suggesting then just simply don't buy it, not like you are at gun point or anything. I am buying both games for sure because I love fighting games adn I love monster hunter.

I will definitely get them both,I'm very excited for those two games.
