Capcom wants to revitalize DMC, Mega Man, and Ace Attorney series with new titles and remakes

I'd love to get:
  • A classic Mega Man 12 (like Mega Man 11)
  • A rebooted and a small AAA cel shaded Mega Man Legends 3 updating its visuals and specially gameplay but keeping similar artstyle and vibes
  • AAA Final Fight remake/reboot of Final Fight 1, 2 and 3 as a single game that would mix beat'em ups and hack & slash gameplay and concepts
  • Final Fight 4 following the style of the Final Fight reboot
  • AAA Bionic Commando remake/reboot that would mix beat'em ups and hack & slash gameplay and concepts
  • Dino Crisis trilogy remade as a single game
  • Dino Crisis 4 remake
  • Devil May Cry 1+2+3 remade as a single game
  • Devil May Cry 6
  • AAA 3D Ghost & Goblins with classic artstyle and characters but gameplay updated making it a bit more souls like or adding roguelite stuff
  • Darkstalkers 4 (I know it isn't possible, there's only market and resources for SF, and wouldn't sell enough)
  • Capcom vs SNK 3 (I know it isn't possible, there's only market and resources for SF, and wouldn't sell enough)
That's not Dino Crisis.
It isn't limited to these 3, notice that when they mentioned series not as important as MH, RE and SF to revive they said:

"Capcom owns a wealth of globally popular brands, such as Mega Man, Devil May Cry, and Ace Attorney"

Remember they're also resurrecting Onimusha and Okami.

These series haven't been really dead for too long (Ace Attorney as of August 2017, Mega Man as of October 2018, Devil May Cry as of March 2019) and were already part of their core IP lineup. What changed this generation?
During their years they released rehashed ports and compilations for these IPs (and other ones).

They have limited resources, and every generation AAA games require more resources. Mega Man and Ace Attorney never had great sales, so they focused their resources where they saw more potential: RE, MH, SF, Dragon's Dogma 2, plus upcoming new entries of Onimusha and Okami, plus investing in a few new IPs like Pragmata, Exoprimal or Kunitsu-Gami. In addition to many ports and compilations as usual.

They are milking MH, RE and SF at full steam, and some new IPs they tried didn't work, so to continue growing they'll try to revive old IPs trying to turn them into core IPs.

Meanwhile Breath of Fire fans:

Come on Capcom give us remasters at least.

I think even Capcom forgot about Breath of Fire. Once they run out of emulated collections of better selling games, they might do one including the whole series.

Isn't there rumor that they've been working on a new Ace Attorney game for a while?

Really hope it's true. Nice charming franchise, some fond memories playing on GBA in middle school classroom.
 
I don't really trust modern Capcom, but I believe Shu Takumi is still around so more Ace Attorney is welcome.
 
Bring back Viewtiful Joe please!
 
Man, I don't have the patience for more remakes, let alone remasters. RE2make was great, but I'm not terrible impressed with the more recent efforts.
 
MegaMan should look at ReCore for its core gameplay inspiration.

ReCore is a game that mixes good 3D platforming and laser gun combat really well.
it released insanely unfinished and has had some questionable designs choices, but the core moment to moment gameplay would fit a 3D MegaMan X game pretty much perfectly
