I think he meant to say Street Fighter, Null...

At any rate, Namco is supposedly bringing a special version of Soul Calibur 2 to GameCube with Link as a playable character...but then again, they also announced Tekken Tag Tournament for GCN over a year ago...:mad:

Go fig...Capcom will probably help out sales with games like Breath of Fire, Devil May Cry, Dino Crisis, and Megaman games alongside the "Big 5" previously announced...

ha.. yeah, Namco makes Tekken...

Capcom makes Street Fighter though... Maybe he was thinking of that :p

But if Nintendo buys capcom, they'd get such games as

Devil May Cry
Onimusha
Street Fighter

uhhh others I can't think of right now :p

But you all knew that..... except maybe Gamer... ;)

Edit: I hate you Shadow Fox :p

Devil May Cry
Onimusha
Street Fighter
Resident Evil
Maximo
Breath of Fire (Just like Crono said, this series kicks ass)
Megaman (That's there main mascot..*drools for Megaman Legends 3*)
Power Stone (One of the best multi-player games ever!)
Dino Crisis (I don't really care about this series though)
Final Fight

And there are way more.

Well guys, I did a little research. I found out Capcom's stock symbol is CCOEF.

I went to the different sites, but none of them recognized the symbol. Hmm?

Finally I checked at Yahoo finance, and they had something... it was changed to CCOEF.PK, for reasons inknown. So I look at the table... and.. well, see for yourself:

http://finance.yahoo.com/q?s=CCOEF.P...y&l=on&z=l&q=l

See, it goes up, and up, and up, and up, and it's at $28 at the moment. BUT, the chart stops at July. Which is also when Nintendo would have sold Rare.

I'm getting suspicious. In that time, Capcom could've created those demos for the Capcom 5 with the Gamecube, and would have had a good start already. Not to mention the decreasing support for the other consoles... I don't recall them mentioning anything for the Xbox after Tekki other than CVS2 Online. And, PS2, well, they have some games announced.. well... Hmm... If magazine editors are true to their words like they are, they write the magazine a month early, maybe more. If someone on the inside got away and heard about this buyout, told the japanese magazine, and was published the following month. Then we hear of the Capcom Five a couple months later. And, ba-boom, a month before the big DMC2 is released, or is supposed to be released, they make the announcement: which is also planned very close to Christmas. Coinkidink? ;)

Also, if an anonymous company bought Sega off of CSK, who was it? That's another thing I'd like to know. But, who knows.. the market is a mysterious place.

They have in fact announced a game for Xbox in the last few mouths it’s only a driving game but it’s still a game. Also Dino Crisis 3 is coming to Xbox (I believe Microsoft paid money for this. Like Nintendo did with res-evil), an online version of Auto Modellista for Xbox live and a first person beat ‘um up called break down. Really come to think of it the 5 new games coming from Capcom brings the level of development on the cube to around the level of the other consoles!


Poor looking lo-res screens of Dino Crisis 3



Lo-res screens of Breakdown



Maybe all this talk is true I don’t know but you can’t say they have made any signs of dropping development for other consoles.

PuPPeT 12-18-2002 11:51 AM

Oh and they just announced today that Capcom Vs. SNK 2:EO and STEEL BATTALION for Europe in Jan and Feb

Dyne 12-18-2002 01:03 PM

Ah, I remember Dino Crisis. Thanks for knocking me in the head; it did seem suspicious they don't have anything mentioned on their website about it...

BoF1 was originally made by SquareSoft for SNES. Capcom bought the series, and since then, all games i nthe series have been better than BoF1 (IMO). BoF3 is one of the greatets PSX games.

Dyne 12-18-2002 03:39 PM

Weren't BoF1 and 2 re-released on the GBA?

<3

I must have been too busy with Golden Sun to notice. :(

LoL you’re going to hate me for this but this just came in from the French site newtechnix.com.

Capcom has just announced that Dino Crisis 3 on Xbox will leave during spring 2003 to Japan. The level of development would amount to 40% and the hero of the play is called Patrick. Dino Crisis 3 should leave during the autumn 2003 to Europe.
Seems just as people start to believe the game is dead it comes back and bites you in the ass.

No I'm sure that there was a megaman 7 on Nes.......I'm sure of it because they were alot of Megaman games on Nes.

DeathsHand 12-24-2002 09:42 AM

K I still don't really believe this Capcom rumor, but check out what the president/CEO of Capcom Entertainment said when asked "What are the biggest challenges in the PS2 market, and what trends will be hot in 2003?" (in the latest issue of PSM where they have a bunch of developers around and ask them questions about the next year in gaming and such):

Quote:

Originally sed by some dude at Capcom who looks kinda like Robin Williams
"The bottom line is that there is going to be a lot of competition, especially on PS2. The key theme will be competitiveness and pricing. I think you will see the demise of some big corporations this year. There is a very good chance that big-time companies will consolidate or merge. Who will it be? I have some suspicious, but we will leave it for the future to tell."
... hmmm... :hmm:

Meh whatever :p

Crono 12-24-2002 09:45 AM

Maybe Capcom will merge with someone else...like Namco, who knows? This is quite interesting though...

Hmmm...from what I understand, Nintendo never made any advances toward Capcom over development (Capcom ASKED to develop both the Oracle series for GBC AND RE for GCN). It's in an interview on cube.ign.com somewhere, but it wasn't that long ago (around July).

And as for Auto Modellista, it's also online for PS2, though I haven't heard any announcements for the game on XboxLive.
