Capcom holding "Adult Masterpiece" (their new Switch adult line-up brand) panel at TGS on Sept 15th

Did PC owners get DMC1 as a standalone game when the trilogy released elsewhere? Late ports absolutely suck, but they went out of their way to troll Switch owners.
But seriously they aren't meaning "adult" as in "mature".From the site in the OP:
Under this image they refer to the Switch ports of Resident Evil, Dragons Dogma, Devil May Cry, and whatever the otome-looking game is as said examples of adult games. So stuff like that.
They are banking on three "adult" parameters based on the images:
- Lack of play time of adults → play anywhere in tabletop mode
The image is a busy adult in his hotel room with an impromptu play session (doesn't even have a TV set up). - Having played the games when young → nostalgia
The image shows the adult on the right reminiscing playing the game as a teen next to (?) his girlfriend. He is the shaved head boy who's enthralled by the game in the flashback. - Adults that might be new to gaming in general → the Switch is trendy for everyone
The image shows someone who see gaming ads but doesn't look like a typical gamer. The pensive woman on the right is the same as the woman looking at the ad in the center of the image. It has nothing to do with "otome games", it is simply juxtaposed with a "regular" corridor ad to show how "mainstream" gaming is becoming.
The images are a bit hard to read due to their use of juxtaposition of different angles without clear separation.

I didn't pull the games I listed out of thin-air just by looking at the images. If you go to the site, right under these images they have a list of games that they classify as these "adult masterpieces." One of them is an otome game, Toraware no Palm.
Oh, you are right, I misinterpreted your post. I thought you had started listing the games based on the bubbles in the first drawing.
Oh no, when they say "adult lineup" do they mean actual real world "adult" , such as mature themes? Or do they mean gaming culture "adult", which is actually the maturity level of a 15 year old boy looking tits and ass all day in his bedroom?
I'd like to think it's the former, but this industry doesn't have a good track record for such things.

I feel like Capcom is doubling down on next-gen at this point (Mega Man & Ace Attorney aside).
So incredibly dumb. Why the label? Just release the fucking games, like you did on the other systems. Jesus
No they literally mean hard working adults who don't have time for games and go out on business trips drinking wine
Probs to mask the lack of new titles (justifiably). Wow, look at these special titles we handpicked for the Switch!
I would freaking love this, the RE Wii railshooters were basically RE fanboys porn and imagine @1080p /60fps 🤤
but i dont think Capcom is gonna do it, Switch has no pointer :'^(
Darkside Chronicles is contender for best soundtrack in the entire series
Of course, that's were the money is :

I thought the beast thing on the CRT in the first pic was a dinosaur for a second
Dammit
See, that's a good point and another thing to consider as well: Capcom's "AAA" focus is very much going to see them develop for "next gen" platforms in a big way. Switch support will, sadly, probably be equally as limited going forward.
It sucks, but I don't see this changing any time soon.
they don't have the manpower to do many lower budgeted games. and since they cut a lot of their external development connections, it'll be some time before they do that again
Capcom is porting so much old stuff to Switch that they are giving the ports a brand name.
Given this and Capcom's apparent focus on AAA for PS/PC/XBOX, I think a new MH for Switch is highly unlikely despite the rumors (maybe a port mistaken-ed for new). Probably the best we can expect is for occasional new mid-tier games and better pricing on the ports (not).

Capcom really isn't porting these games to Switch for the western audience. Their Switch support is for Japan, with the side effect of the games also releasing in the west. Switch's massive success outside of Japan has little to no bearing on Capcom's support. If the system were tanking domestically, we wouldn't see any support, despite its success in the west.
The title sounds sexual.
There is literally nothing more to my post than that
This was the thing that struck me the most.
What the heck is this art?
Believe
I'll give up after the Game Awards come around and we've still heard nothing
Capcom's Switch ports are selling close to nothing in Japan and they are on a clear downwards trend with sales of their ports.
Capcom is on target to sell less software this year than they did last year on in 2017.
