DMC out of all major action games (excluding Dynasty Warriors) in it's type probably sells the best in Japan -- so it's good to see MS taking advantage of every situation. If NG can sell about 60,000 on Xbox1, DMC4 should do a lot more since the hardcore audience of the 360 should eat it up and hopefully attract others.
(thanks to john, I'm sure the above info has been stacked onto yet another thread somewhere)
FROM IGN:
All this in a special DMC4-themed box, for just 37,800 yen! In addition to being a 4,000 yen discount over buying the system and game separately, this price is exactly 10,000 yen less than the recently announced PS3 bundle, providing some incentive for DMC fans to jump in.
************************************
Capcom's IR pages has been updated (as of Dec. 21, 2007). I don't recall if anything particulary notable has been updated since when I last posted it a few months back before the 'update'. But here it is.
Resident Evil 4 (WII) has broken 1 million units worldwide, and the new Apollo Justice (DS) game has sold 520,000 units. They state "penetration of women and casual gamers has been successful [due to DS/Wii]"
They also claim RE4 hitting 1 million on the Wii is the first time a domestic third party game has done so. Both RE4 and Apollo have exceeded expectations.
Breakdown:
RE4:
JPN - 140,000
EU - 410,000
USA - 420,000
Apollo Justice
JPN - 520,000
Lost Planet PC
WW - 310,000
Monster Hunter Freedom 2:
Japan - 250,000
Overseas - 220,000
Next, they talk about how they have won a total of 7 awards from JAPAN GAME AWARDS 2007. Making them the most kick-fuckin-ass Japanese developer. (somebody tell Kojima to go to Capcom). Apparently no other Japanese company has won so many awards. The award winners are:
Monster Hunter 2nd Freedom
Dead Rising (international award)
Lost Planet (international award)
Zack and Wiki
Devil May Cry 4
Sengoku Basara HEREOS (reads sporks thread to see how super awesome it is)
Okami
Capcom is impressed with the results over their multi-platform strategy, and they are strengthening their overseas focus with titles like Dark Void, Bionic Commando, SF IV, Lost Planet and ... ??? Okami ???
Results Intended for early 2008:
Devil May Cry 4: (Xbox 360, PS3 -- worldwide ) 1.8 million (DMC3+DMC3SE also sold, 1.8 million according to Capcom's IR pages.)
Umbrella Chronicles (worldwide) 620,000 (likely already reached)
Monster Hunter Freedom 2 : G (Japan) 500,000
It then talks about the arcade business, where they suffered losses. They also talk about cell-phone penetration, as well as other businesses like panchislo slots (DMC3).

Auf der Playstation kriegt man seine Festplatte schneller voll, als auf dem Hauptrechner. Wenn ich dann noch an die 100 MB + Patches denke...
