They literally pulled the director off mega man to lead SF6. He never even played a fighting game. (He's fired now) They also crippled a ton of other projects to put a ton of worthless features into it, which is why pragmata got delayed for years and all their recent games have been unfinished dogshit. (Also why itsuno got fired)

Ranks 6-11 are pretty distant.
6. Dead Rising 18m
7. Ace Attorney 13m
8. Dragon's Dogma 13m
9. Marvel vs. Capcom 12m
10. Onimusha 8.9m
11. Okami 4.7m

and yet, the ones getting new games that are upcomign are Onimush and Okami. I guess it's better to be either the top or bottom of the runt ladder to get games. Anything in-between is just a luck of the draw if they come back to it or not. Also, Breath of Fire as a series hasn't sold more than even Okami?

Now, time for some fun with numbers.
Here are groupings of RE titles as a percentage of the total 174 million.
>Remakes
42.75 million, 24.5% of total sales.
>Games named 'Resident Evil 4'
25.4 million, 14.5% of total sales
>Games in the 'Survival Horror' Era (1996-2004 + Remasters)
29.63 million, 17% of total sales
>Games in the 'Action' Era (2005-2016 + Remasters)
59.1 million, 33% of total sales
>Games in the 'Modern' Era (2017 - Now)
64.2 million, 36% of total sales.

>How much is missing from the Platinum titles list?
The total from the official sales is 152.93 million, or 87.8% of the total sales.
That means, for titles and ports that did not reach a million sales (required to be documented on the Platinum Titles list), they make up a bit over 11 million sales total, or 12% of the total. Titles not included are
>Resident Evil - Saturn/PC/DS
>Resident Evil 2 - DC/GCN/PC
>Resident Evil 3 - DC/GCN/PC
>Resident Evil Survivor
>Resident Evil CVX - GCN/PS3/360

Fighting games have high barrier to entry and unforgiving to casual players and even mid level players depending on the skill gap between players.

While Smash Bros. Ultimate sold 35M copies compared to the entire SF franchise, part of what gives it a competitive edge to have its competitive league match FGC games is that it directly addresses this fundamental genre issue. And Meleetards can't understand that it's not conducive to the player base as a whole to have an engine where you can ping pong an a player across the stage in a true combo.
