After Capcom's French boss let slip that the company are concentrating on PS3 and Xbox 360, Capcom Europe has released a statement confirming its commitment to making multi-format games.

"Further to comments made in a recent article on French website Gamekult, Capcom would like to confirm its commitment as a multi-platform developer and publisher of interactive software," reads the statement.

As we reported
yesterday, Antoine Seux - Capcom's French chief - moaned to Gamekult about developing games for Wii on the back of poor sales of Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles.

F off.

If all Capcom is going to give the Wii is games like Spyborgs and light gun games then fuck em.  Seriously.  I'm thrilled that we'll be getting TvC and will pick it up day one.  If that game tanks, then fine stop developing for the Wii. But if they insist on bitching about games that no one wants failing to sell then they can just take a leap.

LOL no one wants TVC either. How niche is that game? It features a million Japanese Tatsukono characters from the 70s/80s no one in the mainstream has ever heard of.

If Capcom expects any kind of sales from this LOL.

You know what game could have had sales potential? Crystal Bearers ticked all the boxes in terms of being a big franchise, great trailers, graphics looked flashy, would sell to the mainstream if it came anywhere close to Zelda. Unfortunately they made a mediocre game.

These execs get on my wick, they expect average games to sell well like Conduit or the most artsy niche games like Madworld to sell millions. Or half ass everything on rails and then complain again. I just read on the Capcom boards that Darkside is outselling Bionic Commando, yet when that game fell flat at retail they didn't blame the platform.

TvC did not sell that well in Japan, so what makes you think it will sell well in the West? The Tatsunoko brand is much stronger in Japan than in the West.

I'm hoping that the Street Fighter brand will help carry it.  Plus, it's actually a good game so that should count for something as well.  I don't think it'll be a million seller, but it deserves to do respectable numbers regardless of where half the line-up comes from.

will get TvC as well, and i will get it at launch price as well which i rarely do these days unless it's to show my support.  if i like it a lot i may even get the hori arcade stick for wii so that will be an added £35-40

it will sell like ass but those who say the wii doesn't have hardcore games are just a bit confused about the definition of hardcore games.

i will not get extraction or darkside chronicles ever, not even from the hobo bin for a fiver for both.  nor will i get any other on-rails shooter for a very long time.

WTF?

Do me a favour guys, if you play Wii on an HDTV via components leave your settings on 480p widescreen but on your TV set it to 4:3.

Tell me the difference in sharpness and clarity between that and 16:9.

But it looks like the old games only with uber graphics. Which is good right?

I think those are target renders or something though.

Red Steel 2 is going to bomb because of cel-shading.

PS3 guys, how good is the upscaling when playing PS2 games?

Check these pics:

Looks pretty good to me, if softer.

I wouldn't know. My PS3 does not play PS2 games.

Oh shoot I forgot about that. No support in Europe either.

i don't like the look of the new prince game.  i understand they were disappointed in the sales of the previous game but i thought it looked stunningly beautiful and was hoping for more with that kind of art/graphic style.


But it looks like the old games only with uber graphics. Which is good right?

I think those are target renders or something though.

Red Steel 2 is going to bomb because of cel-shading.

i don't know.  for me it's not so good as i see it as a bit of a cop-out and a step back.  but maybe it will please the people who want a return to the style of the 3 last gen games.

with regards to Red Steel 2, i hear you and that's entirely possible.  it wouldn't be the first time something i like a lot is not very popular with the masses

I do not know enough to put it into technical terms, but the difference is noticeably better.  The colors seem richer, the textures more defined.  I have one of the PS3s with the emotion chip though, no software emulation, so maybe that makes a difference.

Yeah at first when I saw the Forgotten Sands pics I thought YES. Then when I looked harder I realised it reminds me too much of the 3 POP games I have already played (4th still shrinkwrapped).

Listen to them - the children of the net. What rumours they make

This is probably one to file under “rumour” for the time being but we’ve gotten wind from an anonymous source that Konami is currently working away on a Castlevania collection, which apparently will be released on the Wii and Sony PSP this year.

Details are predictably sketchy but it would appear that the disc-based compendium will feature all of the 8-bit and 16-bit instalments, and may even include the 32-bit Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.

SotN is already available on Sony’s portable machine as part of Castlevania: Dracula X Chronicles, but the Wii release would mark the highly-esteemed title’s debut on Nintendo hardware. Rondo of Blood – which is expected on the Virtual Console soon – is also thought to be a possibility.

Sadly our source – who obviously wishes to remain nameless at this point in time – is under the impression that it is unlikely that the two Nintendo 64 games will feature on the collection. The three GBA adventures – and the trio of monochrome Game Boy titles – are also likely to be absent.

With the Hideo Kojima-helmed series reboot Castlevania: Lords of Shadow currently in production it would seem that Konami is keen to exploit the groundswell of attention surrounding its evergreen franchise in as many ways as possible, and a compilation of all the classic titles would certainly fit the bill.

The aforementioned 360 and PS3 action title is due for launch sometime in 2010, and we’d imagine that this collection - if it truly exists at all - will either coincide with that date or serve as a bite-sized (ahem) taster for those gamers unlucky enough to have never experienced the Belmont Saga previously.

When we’re able to get official confirmation we’ll naturally let all you lovely people know

No

That's because your mind is too pre-occupied thinking about Burger Time.

I remember us talking about a Sony Home-like arcade a few months ago.  So is Rare working on all this XBL stuff? I know they make the avatars.

OH. MY. GOD. That Castlevania collection thing would, BLOW. MY. MIND. I'd think it'd be really nice to have the N64 games in it but I also wouldn't miss them terribly if they are omitted.

Here's what I posted, wow from October the 8th 2009

360 gets is own PS style home

Images and details have leaked onto the net for something called 'Xbox Avatar RetroCade', which looks strikingly similar to Sony's PlayStation Home.

Mentioned in a previously-secret consumer survey sent to
Joystiq, the "virtual Avatar arcade" could be called "Game Room," "RetroCade," "Classics LIVE" or "Tower of ROM." We like the last one.

It looks incredibly similar in concept to PlayStation Home's own arcade, though if the leaked survey's anything to go by it's not going to be free of charge.

The second survey question asks, "Which of the following names would most compel you to purchase the product?" indicating that the "Xbox arcade" might not be a totally free space.

We've contacted Microsoft for comment.

Natal: New promo video Releases Winter 2010 - Are you excited?

R U?

Looks like utter shit to me. They talk about all the disciplines engaged in the development of it but no gamers.  No chip in the thing either... maybe it will come in under $100.
