"Why have Capcom abandoned the Onimusha franchise? As one of the industry’s biggest publishers, they have some of gaming’s most reputable, acclaimed and celebrated franchises on their books. Take a look at Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 if you want to see a detailed roster of their best characters from their greatest wares and commodities. Dante is in there. Ryu is too. Then there’s Viewitful Joe, Amaterasu and half the cast of Resident Evil. Yeah, Capcom almost have too many excellent game products at their disposal and while they continue to churn out new Street Fighters and new Resident Evils at a suspiciously freakish and frequent rate, they seem to have forgotten all about poor Onimusha in the process. I mean, Samanosuke Akechi didn’t even make it in MVC3? C’mon Capcom, what the hell is going on?"
Hanzala from eXputer says, "Onimusha deserves a proper Resident Evil-style comeback as much as the other Capcom gems, and I'm glad they might get the chance after all."
Hell naw. I voted for breath of fire. It's thr best choice imo.
Please vote breath of fire.
Why, though? With Nioh, Sekiro, and every other From Software game with a Samurai build in it, what's the point? The lore? Was it really so unique and interesting that it warrant this "beg Capcom" movement Capcom keeps telling us we need to do all these years? Fudge no. Either make a game or don't but stop this "fans need to game beg or else" bs.
Take Castlevania for example. What's the point in a new entry? From Software literally gave us the entire plotline in Bloodborne with Cainhurst Castle and then some. They also let you play as a Belmont/Alucard build in most of their other games so a new Castlevania is not warranted. Now, if Konami wants to do something, sure, but otherwise? I ain't begging. I'm good actually.
These companies are ran by idiots, that's for sure. Read the market. See the games that are coming out that people are loving and if you have an old IP that fits the bill? Well? Do something about it ya goofs! Otherwise? Let the IP go to the public domain. Trust me, bro. The internet will do a far better job - and worst - than you ever will with all these dormant or dead IPs.
Some Indie devs are even making Dino Crisis like games and people are excited for it. And what is Capcom doing? Sending surveys...FFS!
Get the fudge out of here Crap.com
Capcom is looking to bring back some of its dormant franchises, according to recent investor relations communications.
Capcom, may I suggest Asura's Wrath...less QTEs
God Hand
Dino Crisis
Rival Schools
Darkstalkers
Seriously, Capcom has such an incredible history. they could bring back so many games and make it work
I am all down for Dino Crisis if they don't botch it, Breath of Fire would also be great, Onimusha, I am all down for Final Fight, Knights of the Round, Saturday Night Slam Masters, Darkstalkers, Clock Tower, and a decent Bionic Commando. I'd also like to see Demons Crest and a decent Ghouls and Ghosts game one thing I like about Capcom is their library of games. Capcom was another developer I really loved back in the day, along with Konami before they flipped off the gaming world, Squaresoft also use to be good as well.
Chris at GameSpew: Now that Devil May Cry 5 is here, here are five other Capcom games that we'd love to see revived.
Excellent selection of games. Capcom has such a gold mine of IPs to bring back.
I'm still completely baffled as to why Steel Battalion has not been ported to VR.
I would like to see:
-Beatdown fists of Vengeance
-GODHAND
-Viewtiful Joe (even if just a remaster)
I loved this game. It was my first PS2 game.
Dude where is the sequel. The third game was epic. The opening cut-scene would melt a normal mans face right off.
This one is a classic! I wish Capcom would give it the reboot it so deserves
I KNOW! ONIMUSHA 5 PLEASE!
hehe, I watched my cousin go through this on the Xbox (that version was titled Genma Onimusha) and the f*cking doll they included in that scared the living crap out of me (I was a kid)... I don't remember if you can kill it, but if you can, it certainly would have taken a long time. Sadly I only beat 1 & 2 (I didn't like 2 at first because it didn't have Samanosuke, but it grew to be my favorite) and i don't own 3 or 4. My of my favorite series :)
