Mr. House 3,371 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 That's what people used to say last-gen. Monster Hunter World - 11 million units. Best sales for a standalone Capcom game ever. Final Fantasy XV - 8 million shipped. Kingdom Hearts 3 - Shipped 5 million units so far. Fastest selling game in the series. Metal Gear Solid V - Shipped 5 million units. (old stats) Dragon Quest XI - 4 million. (despite being a 'flop' outside of Japan) Resident Evil 2 - 3 million in one week. Nier Automata - 3.5 million sold. Dragon Ball FighterZ - 3.5 million sold. Dark Souls III - 3 million sold. (very old stats, probably way higher now) Bloodborne - 3 million. (estimates from VG chartz) Nioh - 2.5 million sold. Persona 5 - 2.2 million sold. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinblade★ 3,906 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Eh, to be fair most of those are proven franchises that can afford to have large budgets. The reality is that not too many japanese developers nowadays are willing to make a new IP with a large budget. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The two games were poorly managed though and the average gamer doesn't want to have to invest tons of money in DLC for some Japanese fighting games where they get demolished online. It will be interesting to see how much DMCV sells. I think it will enjoy a good success, hopefully. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they can turn their fighting division around like they have their other divisions, there's no stopping them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bhytre 2,753 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Capcom needs to get rid of Dimps and create their own fighting games again Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. House 3,371 Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 Just now, Remij_ said: If they can turn their fighting division around like they have their other divisions, there's no stopping them They need to handle their fighting games differently. Tons of single player content from day one, no insane milkage through paid DLCs (new refined versions at budget price are preferable), great graphics and production values (MvCI got a lot of backlash for it's visuals). And they would sell comparable to last-gen numbers. There's a rumor of a new MvC being in the work, supposed to make up where Infinite failed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
