Capcom release chart for early 2007

In early 2007 Capcom will be releasing this many titles on each system.

PS2 - 33
PSP - 21
DS - 10
XBox360 - 6
PS3 - 3
GBA - 2
XBox - 1
PC - 1
Wii - 0

So even after the DS has had one of the most successful years in the history of gaming, Capcom is still giving more support to the PSP. Nice to see the company is still being run my monkeys.

Wait, actually I think a monkey would run Capcom better then the people who are really making the decisions.

It's almost like... they want Sony to succeed. *gasp!*

But really, that is bull. Has there been any change of members in their boardroom since these silly decisions have started?

Capcom = Sega

Well, most of the PSP games are probably ports. Regardless, KN is right.

If the announcement of Dragon quest IX on the DS didn't move Capcom into full time Nintendo development, NOTHING WILL!

So I guess Resident Evil for Wii is a 2008 title then?

IceCold · « **Reply #6 on:** December 26, 2006, 06:43:46 PM »

This list is for "early" 2007..

21 games = 20 ports and 1 original game (maybe?).
And 0 for the Wii, seriously? is Capcom living under a rock? or on another planet?

Not too surprising. As long as they've got ports and collections to still work on Capcom is still gonna worship the PSP, even when the controller and analog nub do their fighters NO justice.

"It's almost like... they want Sony to succeed. "

Which is why I find all of this interesting considering that Sony a big reason as to why their 2D division is pretty much nonexistant now.

Capcom does Resident Evil and Viewtiful Joe right? Personally if I was Nintendo after the "exclusive" stuff they pulled last time. I wouldn't want them back. In fact I charge them an extra fee for breaking the intention of there contract.

I'd be keen on the next RE game, but supposedly, after RE4 was ported to the PS2 by Capcom against the RE creator's wishes, he left the company. That's just what I heard, though, so I can't verify it.

But yeah, someone at Capcom is clearly DEEP in Sony's pocket. Funny that Sony couldn't buy the same loyalty from Square...

This means that RE Umbrerra Cronikurus is set for LATER THAN EARLY 2007.

Capcom lost my respect when they reneged on their exclusives for GCN. I will be hard pressed to by of their games anymore.

Bullsh#t........

They could make a Wiimake of RE4 and we would all gobble it up like beans on rice....

WuTangTurtle · « **Reply #15 on:** December 27, 2006, 09:20:32 AM »

technically we got Street Fighter II: The World Warrior on Wii's Virtual Console.....

I hope someone gets an interview with one of the Capcom bigwigs and asks them to explain in their own words why they are supporting Sony and Microsoft so much.

So why the heck did Nintendo let Capcom make Minish Cap for?

Actually I think this might be one of the reasons why Nintendo themselves is making Phantom Hourglass. Capcom was allowed to make both Oracle games, the Link to the Past Remake/Four Swords game and then Minish Cap. But now Nintendo is suddenly making the next handheld Zelda again after they allowed Capcom to do it for several years.

Anyone else think Nintendo got fed up with Capcom screwing them over and finally said "**** You!" and that's why EAD is making Phantom Hourglass instead of Flagship?

Shinji Mikami is making Phantoo Hourgoose.

=D

I hope y'all know that those numbers include the entire Fiscal year, starting April 2006 and ending March 2007.

They aren't total morons, Dead Rising sold a lot.

Capcom has always been a late adopter to new systems, especially one as odd as the Wii. I could've told you that Capcom wouldn't release a Wii game in early 2007 if you had asked - I think it's likely, though, that we'll see something from them by the end of the year. Don't blow this out of proportion guys. Three Playstation 3 games? One of them will be a fighter (who cares), the other a port or remake, and the last one (an original title) will be delayed.

Good thing too. The Oracle games/Minish Cap were cut-and-dry 2D Zeldas, but if Capcom made PH with touch-screen controls, there's a good chance they'd screw it up..

Luigi Dude · « **Reply #23 on:** December 28, 2006, 12:24:43 AM »

I never played the Oracle games but I agree on Minish Cap. Which is why I'm happy Nintendo took back the handheld Zelda series. Now if only they'd do the same with the Star Fox series.

Wasn't Star Fox DS made by Nintendo?
