No one probably thinks it can have a strong impact for sure, but it is still the only aspect that can add some uncertainty in the competition between the two systems so about what will happen on this market. Other than that the coming years just look awfully predictable and again that's the big news.
Nah, he has been on this side (whatever it is) since forever. All he did now was finally join my ignore list.
The only main MH that didn't have it's assets made from scratch is MH2. World's not really any different from Tri or 4 in that regard, only much more expensive. MH6 will probably have all new assets too.
Absolutely. I just think that Sony can't be satisfied with a situation where there is no contest they are going to lose by such a huge margin on this market.
Wii/DS/PSP was insane and highly unusual for the industry everywhere, not just Japan. You're talking 330m global sales there, compared to just 100m to the Wii U/3DS/Vita. It's plainly disingenuous to imply this is a decline specific to Japan.
You added games such as XX. By that logic, the average should be lower - you should also add MH Stories...
Why would people buy a port of a 3DS game that fans didn't want to be made? Even then the numbers it did get exceeded Capcom's expectations.
Going by Capcom's words, that proof should already be present. It is the same situation for Namco with DBX2 too; the game they threw out went beyond their expectation.
I wouldn't know what they feel but ill say that once MHW got announced, MHS marketing seemed to drop off a cliff, the only reason for capcom to allow Nintendo to publish h
In a set where your max element is 4.1 you won't ever get a mean of 4.5 no matter how many elements you remove from the set.
Then every game has its own category: mainline, expansion to mainline, spin off, expansion to spin off.
Argument from someone who has no idea what gets released on PS4 in Japan maybe.
But there is a good reason it sold considerably less... So, when doing averages of series, you would count Pokemon Ultra same as Sun and Moon? You would count for COD as part of the average how much the Vita COD sold? By that same logic, PS is on a downwards crashing course, I mean, look how much less PS4 Pro has sold vs. the PS4... They're both overall the same category after all, and no they are not the same console. Would you count all RE games to make an average in order to demonstrate what the average of a RE game should sell?
I mean, no you wouldn't, but let's get past that.
Actually, why didn't you put in 3U?
People are just trying to lower the bar so they can say MHW was a success no matter what scenario happens. In the end the real comparison from a business point of view should be comparing 2 years of MH on 3DS (MH4 + MH4U expansion) vs 2 years of MHW (PS4+XB1+PC+DLCs + if there is a Switch MH game using these assets within that time frame).
This system in Japan really sucks, I think the Publisher should take care about bad selling games and not the stores themselves. Like it's handled here, if it doesn't sell through within 3 months it's returned to the publisher or the publisher pays for a price cut. It's in the Publishers interest too, you can't sell what's not available...
Sorry man, i know nothing about Pokemon. To be honest i don't understand your COD and PS4 comparison.
Well, all other switch games are sold out, so you buy that other Mario game instead.
