Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

Hahaha, Megaman. SO MANY

[Kire]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

what I want to know is what made Megaman 3 bomb so hard...

EDIT: scratch that remark, I'm dumb.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

DINO CRISIS?!?!

[DarkwingChuck]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

120 Megaman titles? How many do you have, Pauly?

Shame the Ace Attorney series isn't higher on the list. Only thing lower are the 2 and 3 title series.

DINO CRISIS?!?!

I liked the first one. Never played 2 or 3.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

where did they get all their Disney revenue? from Ducktales?

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

Huh, I was always under the impression that Onimusha 2 was some horrible bomb.

[Kefka Jr.]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

I guess it's not a masterpiece like DINO CRISIS.

Geez.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

I liked the original Dino Crisis. It was basically Resident Evil with dinosaurs but because you were always outpowered no matter what you fought the game usually ended up being a lot of running and flipping laser grids on. A game is a lot more thrilling when you have to run from most encounters (and unlike earlier Resident Evils, the enemies are 10x faster).

But Dino Crisis 2 and 3 just tossed out all the charm that the first game had.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

Hey now, I thought Dino Crisis was ****ing awesome. I loved it.

[Kefka Jr.]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

Sorry, I never played it. It's just been so long since I even remember hearing about Dino Crisis, seeing it on the list is like seeing Nancy Callahan after getting out of prison.

Anyway, Onimusha 2 is awesome, and I'm glad it's on the list at all.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

I wish Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter had sold better. Now we won't ever really see another installment of that series.

[Riotsword]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

I hated Dino Crisis. My experience was basically, shoot some dinos, get low on ammo, get ****** because the dinos respawn, run from everything, die.

But then again I was a noob.

[Magus]

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

That was basically my experience. Felt like a step back from RE2 and RE3.

Re: crazy capcom sales chartz!

I wish Breath of Fire: Dragon Quarter had sold better. Now we won't ever really see another installment of that series.

never say never. although it didnt do well in terms of sales, the breath of fire brand name is still relevant if you ask me. capcom has no other rpg series under their belts, except maybe el dorado or something, but none so known as breath of fire. my personal feeling is that they will get it back on track eventually. dragon quarter was an experimental shift.

but anyways, i like lists like these. capcom makes great games and they are their own developing and publishing company. if they ever merge with anyone (e.g. square-enix, namco-bandai, sega-sammy), i will be upset. i think its cool they publish american developed games in Japan too, like tomb raider and grand theft auto.
