eh I don't even like the fighting genre that much...I can't even imagine Capcom turning RE into a fighting game. Actually I could but it would be horrible.

Would it? Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 seems to be doing fine.

Is 1.4million copies really that devastating for a 2 month span? I mean.. if it didn't meet their sales projections, that's one thing. But are they going to stop future titles when they sold so many copies?

1.4million just doesn't seem bad to me.

Yeah I'm sure to a person that likes that genre would think that would an awesome idea, but I don't like that genre so it would be a bad move if Capcom turned all their future releases into fighting games.

It's Capcom...I'm not surprised. I'm sure selling less then 2 million copies with "Street fighter" in the name is making them push Mark from accounting from a 20 story building.

exactly, this is the same company that about 10 months ago cancelled a highly anticipated game due to "lack of fan support/involvement" Dodgy
