All RE's in 2002?
 

i just went to the Nintendo of Canada website, and this is what I found :


Does this mean that GCN owners will have an all - RE 2002? This would be cool... But I doubt it would happen.

hmm? I thought I heard that like... RE, RE0, and RE2 would be out in 2002 or something.... :confused:

But I thought that at least RE4 was 2003...

Why would Capcom want to release all 5 in one year. Wouldn't that hurt their sales some? I mean, who's got the money to buy 5 games of the same franchise in one year?:confused:

Well... I think that the "die-hard" RE fans would buy all of the games... But I agree with you that releases them periodically would increase sales.

Ah the thing I hate about Capcom (assuming this is true).

Once they have a product that's successful (or doing "Ok"), they milk it like there's no tomorrow.

It's ok to Milk products I guess, but if your gonna milk it.............please do it properly :unsure:

Unfortunately this has lead to the demise of many Capcom franchises

Mega Man, and Street Fighter come to mind.:unsure:

I personally don't see why Capcom is putting alll the ports of RE, when they have them on other systems...I don't think the 2 year old ports ( well 2 years give or take) are going to sell very well.
I think Capcom should just bring Re0, and RE4 and leave it as that.

Now suppose the ports don't sell well......what do you think Capcom might say?? They might say...well the GC isn't really selling the Re series. We may have to rethink the exclusive deal.

Oh well I hope it doesn't come to that....and yeah Capcom needs to think up of some new franchises....to take the play of the ones they milked and milked and milked and milked ...well you get the idea :D

I want a mega-man RPG...... has that been done?
Didnt they do that on GBA?

Whatever... i think its a bad idea to realease em all in one year, escpecialy if the gameplay is identical in each one.. it will feel like your playin the same game over and over again..... or maybe im just an idiot.

That could be a bit of a problem.. cuz yeah all the RE games have had like the same gameplay, but they were released with at least a year between each one... releasing them all in such a short period of time could leave some people feeling a bit "blah" towards the whole series..

I think the ports could still sell well though even if they come out in a short period of time... although maybe not... y'see...

A lot of Nintendo fans might not have played at least 3 or CV before... And add into the mix them most likely costing no more than 20 bucks each (except maybe RE:CV, although that could still be cheap)... and that could still make them sell good..... BUUUT

The graphics... will look bad.. :D people would have played RE1 with it's great graphics and saw RE0 with similar graphics, and then go to playing almost PSX quality games? It would turn some away...

So it could go either way... good or bad...

But I still don't think they'll all be released this year :D

I would buy them if they sell them like for $20 like they did on the DC (The ports I mean). But if they sell them for more than $25 I won't buy even one.

I don't know if it's me, but it seems doubtful that RE4 will be released this year. :unsure:

While playing RE 1 GCN, I was wondering about whether I would buy all of the ports if they were all completely revamped as 1 was. I mean, I think what makes RE 1 so cool is that it's been so long since it came out and also the wow factor. So would 2, 3, and CV with GCN graphics and some changed stuff sell as well? For me, if they were all released within a year or two I definitely wouldn't buy 'em, but if it was like one for every year I'm kinda not sure.

But Capcom isn't completely rebuilding each port, right? So I guess those would be really cheap (such as DC) for anyone that happens to want them or haven't played them (like, I don't think I've played 2, or 1 until now, but I have 3 and CV). And then everybody who's a fan would buy 0 and 4 because they are completely new.

Just something I was thinkin' about.

Actually they already know that the games won't sale as good as on the previous systems, but look at this.
Capcom already made the moceys on these games and porting it to GameCube will be a breeze with really minimal costs. And even if they sell only 100,000 copies world wide by the end of GameCube's life they still make extra profit on a game they didn't have to work on it again.

Capcom will port the games from the best versions they have, so they will posrt Dreamcast and PS2 versions, not PSX versions (I'm not sure if they ported RE2 to Dreamcast)

Having all the Games show up on Gamecube makes a few bucks as well as a bunch of fans happy to have the full collection on one system ala "collectors items"

Actually this is fairly old news, and it did say all in 2002, though I find the last one may be pushed a year, maybe even the last 2.

Hmmmmmmmm didn't think of it that way...thanks Mike.

Oh yeah another thing about the RE series.....they should think about improving the GP and control elements. I think people get tired of the same format all the time. I mean sure if each game comes out with the same Graphics, that's going to be a norm and people will look at and probadly say...." hey it looks the same as the RE 1 remake....so after they look pass the graphics...they might look at the GP....and say "wtf ..nothings changed except the areas ...I'm not buying that game. "

I'm not saying all people will say this but I'm sure a few will....so I hope that Capcom's new GP in RE0 will really improve the GP of the series. I like the idea of dropping things on the spot and etc.
Now all they got to do is work on those controls. :D
