Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 sold 600,000 copies, is that satisfactory for you? Also, what's next for the game? — Greg
Svensson: SSFIV sold more in the same window. UMVC3 I would expect to have long legs. We ship a more every week and the North American market is the lion's share of the world wide volume. That said, I'm a little bummed we aren't on track to beat SSFIV. I had hoped the attractive price coupled with the Marvel brand during the holiday launch period would have broke us out more broadly. Don't get me wrong, we didn't do badly, but I still think the game deserves more, as good as it is.
I can't speak to what could be next right now. Sorry.
How did Capcom go from good net code SSF4 to worse net code MvC3? —
Svensson: Different teams and different internal people working on them, completely different producers (Niitsuma on MvC3/UMvC3 and Ono on SFIV, SSFIV, SFxT) and as a result, completely different directives and absolutely no code has been shared between them.
