AA5 and AA6 sold fine on the 3DS.
The modern collections are selling well: AA1-3 is over 4.3m. GAA1-2 just sold over 1m. AA4-6 and AAI-2 are close to selling 1m.
The only recent game that "bombed" was GAA2's original release; a Japan-only 3DS game released in 2017.

What killed franchise is Capcom's lack of interest after the 3DS-era and their focus on big budget AAA titles. Capcom's smaller franchises have been left by the wayside.

AA1-3 Collection is crazy since it was at 3.3m sales just last year. The collections have been slow-burn sales winners for Capcom

Play fangames. Some are really well written like turnabout Turnabout Of The Golden Witch or Conflict Of Interest
That Zelda 64 romhack too
Play Tyrion Cuthbert, Trials of Innocence, Nina Aquila Legal Eagle and the first chapter of Of The Devil

They already hinted at something new coming in the future, made with RE Engine.

At first I thought this was just hinting at the (then) unannounced Investigations Collection. But apparently the AAI Collection was made with Unity, not RE Engine. So maybe this was a tease for a new game after all.

I have zero expectations until they actually fucking announce the thing.
