Not to say those aren't bad numbers but those are console sales number after they made their profit margins from arcade customers. How many of those arcade customers are going to buy the home release months later when they primarily play in arcades?

Of course those numbers are going to be low it's not surprising.

You say this like japanese consumers didn't do this very thing not too long ago, lol.

Look at VF4 Evo sales in Japan, CvS2, Alpha series.

Heads up for PC folks, NVIDIA put out new game ready drivers for SFV today http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/street-fighter-v-game-ready-drivers-released
Click to expand...

[SLI, Street Fighter V] Game crashes when launched with SLI and Stereo enabled.

[200172107] Street Fighter V gameplay appears to be in slow motion and FPS is capped at 30 when
game is played with high resolution and high settings.

[200171727] [SLI, Street Fighter V] Performance drop (pause and play) observed when the game is
played at 4K resolution with SLI enabled. [200172046]

Rip. I think most of these existed in the beta though. Mainly this driver is for Xcom and AssCreed.

They added SLI scaling support according to release notes so yeah it should help some. Along with the game update that comes out soemtime soon.

sli via driver is always a given. The issue is that UE3 work has been pushed to its limit via drivers. It's basically on firaxis.

It's nice to know the 30fps is a known issue.

Were the numbers this low for home ports of arcade games in the past? Thats were the comparison should be.

Small observation from people in streams. Some say they won't get into the game until he complete package, others are waiting for their favorite characters to be put in and some is playing the waiting game to see how robust the online play is. Do people think Capcom should have just added the most popular and staple characters now and then release the new ones via DLC?

They did right on the order of the DLC. We would've heard the same things from these people if R.Mika and Karin were DLC characters.

Though the game probably should've came out in March.

When it comes to characters, they can't please everyone. If capcom just had popular characters, people would criticize them for not releasing new characters at launch.

Nah. I think they chose the right characters to launch with and release on the first wave. There's a healthy mix of new and lesser known characters versus the seasoned vets.

That's what I figured. People just need a reason to not get a game. I'm glad reviewers are stating how the game is going to be a whole lot better when things are added and what's here now is good enough to get started with. Except for Fang I like the whole cast. Will be messing around with them all eventually.
