HD remasters are 'key' to Capcom's business
Going forward, Capcom's gonna keep on looking backward. HD remasters will become an even more significant part of Capcom's bu🌱siness from here on out, according to a recent Q&A with the company's investors.
澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Resident Evil HD Remaster launched in January, 澳洲幸运5开奖号😼码历史查询:DmC: Devil May Cry Definitive Edꦛitionshipped in March, and 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Devil May Cry 4 Special Edition is coming in June. Not to mention 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Ultra Street Fighter 4 will hit PS4 on May 26, which kinda meets the "HD remaster" criteria, depending on your definition. Eith꧟er way, that's alrea♏dy a pretty substantial calendar, and it sounds like we should expect more in the future.
"HD remasters of our catalogue hit titles will be one of our key business activities," Capcom explained in the Q&A. "Overseas, it is becoming difficult to sell these lower-priced and re-mastered titles at stores because of the d💝eclining number of stores and sales area limitations. Therefore, we started aggressive digital download sales activities.
"These activities cre💮ated new demand for these titles. For example, overseas download sales of Resident Evil (HD Remastered) in the past fiscal year were far higher than we expected. It is not a risk[,] but rather the growth of the download sales channel gives users more options. We regard this as growth in opportunities to have allow access for more people to enjoy our games."
As long as Dino Crisis is somewhereܫ on that pile, and we can someday enjoy shooting rockets at raptors in crisp HD, it will all be worth it.

I got a BA in journalism from Central Michigan University - though the best education I receivꦉed there was from CM Life, its student-run newspaper. Long before that, I started pursuing my degree in video games by bugging my older brother to let me play Zelda on the Super Nintendo. I've previously been a news intern for GameSpot, a news writer for CVG, and now I'm a staff writer here at GamesRadar.
