Dear Reader:
Capcom compliments MadWorld, says there is potential in core games on Wii
“I personally have no fear (about sales of Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles), Resident Evil is a massive brand on a worldwide scale and you can’t really compare it to MadWorld. Personally I do like MadWorld, I think it is a very unique game. I think we should be happy to be able to play a game like this. It’s kind of disappointing that it didn’t sell.” - Capcom’s Masachika Kawata
Capcom didn’t stop with the third party praise there. Mr. Kawata went on to give a nod to their light gun competition, and then stressed a belief in core games on Wii.
(discussing Dead Space Extraction) With that game coming out we feel it is going to be a very nice competitor, help us push our limits and raise the bar for light gun games. There is potential in these types of games.” - Capcom’s Masachika Kawata
