Default Interesting Capcom Numbers, plus 18 titles canned across the board.

A few numbers they revealed:

System/Title/Sold/Plan

(Numbers are worldwide numbers)

PS2 Devil May Cry 2 1,400,000 (plan: 1,660,000) 84%
PS2 Clock Tower 3 250,000 (plan: 450,000) 56%
GCN Biohazard 0 1,120,000 (plan: 1,420,000) 79%
GBA lock MANEGUZE 850,000 (plan: 500,000) 170%

On top of that, they reveal they have stopped production on 18 out of 100 titles in development (10 of which the article says was on the GBA). I know the 100 number sounds ridiculous, but that's what the article states.

Click the link below for the full story. Will link to a US story as soon as it becomes available.

And people thought the sales for RE 0 on the GC were bad? I think that's Capcom title number two that's hit 1+ million on the Cube. And comparing how DMC2 sold 1.4 million on a console with a userbase of around 45+ million to RE0 (1.2 Million), which is on a system with a userbase of 9.4 Million, I reckon the exclusivity of the RE 0/4 to the GC will not be broken (Capcom have also denied rumours about RE 0/4 going to other consoles).

Does anyone know what 'lock MANEGUZE' for the GBA is? It seems to be the only game that surpassed expectations. And seeing as how well this GBA game sold (don't know about how others have), why have they cancelled 10 GBA games in development? I wonder what the other 8 are...
