It's Resident Evil the franchise is so popular anything can sell a million.

Therefore this million seller doesn't count.

Try again sheep.

The difference is that the PS3 and 360 have proven to sell 3rd Party games, the Wii on the other hand hasn't.

Congratulations, now you can look forward to RE Zero and Okami Remake(without exclusive content). While Others get DMC4, RE5 & Bionic Commando. Poor sheep, I really feel for you.

LOL your argument was going ok untill you said "DMC4" then i just started laughing. Crack another funny PLEASE!

I have faith in capcom bringing some exclusive content for Wii owners more so in the future. Resident Evil: UC was intresting game which i enjoyed alot! it selling a million copies is no suprise really as RE series just prints money. The Wii console has shown it can sell anything Capcom throws at it.

Not much right with DMC franchise altogether, let alone just number 4! Theres no orignality in the series as all ideas where taken from Vampire Hunter D! Besides the Omniusha (sp) series was much better but sadly the 3rd installment was suppose to be the last from what i remember.

The point is, DMC4 has more effort put in it than any game that will ever come to Wii by Capcom, regardless if you think it's a good game or not. The only good effort that came out of Capcom on Wii was Z&C. It sounds like the only one too since Capcom found out that rehashes of old RE games sell better than original content for Wii

Capcom isn't going to ignore the money they made on the game b/c it didn't seem that good compared to the number of consoles sold.

Now your making a assumption based on what facts? Do you know Capcoms line up for the next 3 and half years for the Wii? Do you work for Capcom to say "DMC has has more effort put into it than any other Wii game" I'm sure you cannot answer any of those questions. Z&W could be the best game ever created but Capcom did not advertise it so the bad sales for this game has only one person to blame which is CAPCOM. RE:UC was advertised and so was RE4 which there sales show as both sold well over a million.

Least support your argument with some facts. If they put as much effort as you claim then why rip off Vampire Hunter D with character design, Area's, plots... Least with other Capcom franchises like RE for example varied more so with character design, area's, plot and wasnt based on one thing but more on several (Dawn of the Dead, Alien, The Thing...) as RE2 basically ripped off every horror movie so had to have new ideas for RE3 while DMC has not changed since the 1st in any big way.

For what it's worth Capcom has announced a new original RE game for the Wii. They haven't said more than that though. My guess is that it will have some connection to RE0, which is part of the reason they decided to port that to the Wii.

Sounds intresting. I never liked 0 as much as previous titles but i did enjoy swapping between rebecca and Billy as it made puzzles more fun. Maybe a game with Hunk (favourite RE charecter) or Elza (she was changed to Claire Redfield) as the main person would be awesome. We'll soon see.

But I hope wii gets more RE games.

lycrof

Economics 101: Shipped means capcom SOLD to retailers. So Shipped DOES = Sold. This may come as a shock to you, but developers make the bulk of there revenue from the initial shipments to retailers. By the time the game goes from Retail to End User, the money a developer is taking is isn't much more than a small percentage known as royalties.

LOL your argument was going ok untill you said "DMC4" then i just started laughing.

I have faith in capcom bringing some exclusive content for Wii owners more so in the future. Resident Evil: UC was intresting game which i enjoyed alot!

and what's wrong with DMC4?

Not much right with DMC franchise altogether, let alone just number 4! Theres no orignality in the series as all ideas where taken from Vampire Hunter D! Besides the Omniusha (sp) series was much better but sadly the 3rd installment was suppose to be the last from what i remember.

I started laughing when you assume DMC is a broken franchise

DMC franchise is right, theres nothin wrong with it. Few hate it, Many love it.

So far DMC4 has been selling well. Well probably see others I hope.

A 20 million + install base and 1 million sold is something special to you. :roll: Hell the PS3 has half the install base and can pull that off. Sorry, but nothing special. Actually seems bad to me with such a larger install base.
