Why does Capcom neglect the Darkstalkers IP?

A new Darkstalkers requires a lot of work and talent, two things Capcom lacks now.

Kaho Shibuya if anyone's interested.

because only coomers know or care about the franchise. and since their SF titles are consistently FAR more popular and profitable why risk the other? they already tried rereleasing them on all platforms and nobody bought them

No way he hasn't killed himself by now...

>Why does Capcom neglect the ____ IP?
They don't give a shit anymore. Plain and simple. They have so many good IPs just rotting away.

I like monsters.

>and since their SF titles are consistently FAR more popular and profitable
SF3 says hi.

Morrigan was the meta for 3 seasons in row in teppen

>Jimmy McNormalfag doesn't care about le radical aussie zombie man or le wacky pharaoh dude they just want gay anime bullshit like Tekken or DBZ.
Sad but true.

>Trusting Capcom to make good looking games
This is why I'll rather have Arcsys. Yeah their game mechanics can be garbage but at least I can trust them to not make me physically recoil from the visuals.

Because it's not that good or popular. It's a 'cult classic' of the gaming world that's popular for a succubus that's not even the main character of the series she's from. A good margin of 'fans' are the type to have downloaded Fightcade, made an account, ran the arcade mode, lost, then never booted it again. The fact of the matter is that no matter how much people like to pretend they like Darkstalkers or Vsav or whatever fucking game in the series they pretend to play, the amount of people willing to actually care about a new game are minimal. Even the modern FGC would drop it like a fat shit -- look at what happened to DBFZ or UNIST. HUGE for the bandwagon, dropped like an anchor the year afterwards. Just like those million Twitter artists who are 'HUGE FANS' but only ever draw Lilith, Morrigan, Lei-Lei, or Felicia.

Spoken like someone with two hours on Baiken. Nobody should listen to you and I say this as someone loving Granblue right now

Believe me, it's for the best. As long as they don't bring back 2D animation, they could butcher Street Fighter all they want, but I couldn't stand to see the same fate for Vampire.

>Yeah their game mechanics can be garbage
This is the dumbest fucking post I've seen in a fighting game thread. I bet you think DBFZ is balanced and mandated by Arc-Sys, huh

Because They ran out of ideas for new walk cycles for Huitzil.

This is the actual correct answer.

>Because it's not that good
It is good fag.

You are giving them too much credit. At most they watched some gameplay on youtube and called it a day.

Your pessimisim is justfied but still, for fans that do love it, as few as they are, it's obviously something special to them if they've stuck by it.

DS as an IP is too limited and niche. Especially with the SFV/MvCI model of selling costumes and stages and other shit. DS has one theme, supernatural undead etc, while Street Fighter is all over the place

The best they could try to do is cram DS into the Street Fighter timeline, like they did with Final Fight and every other dormant IP

Capcom vs SNK 1+2, MvC2, Project Justice, Capcom Fighting Jam, isn't "withdrawing from the entire fighting game genre for a decade"

Notice how most of those involved recycled assets? ESPECIALLY MvC2 and Jam?

if I beat you will you be my cute lilith gf?

Like every single Capcom fighter during the 90s heyday?

but it is
prove me wrong

Pure kino, user. Dust off the Saturn and enjoy it the way God intended.

It is to my own eternal shame that I heard this way before actually knowing the sample.

I’m a WiFi warrior, sorry

He needs a bouncy hat

Because they will never top Vampire Savior.

what even is there to this IP besides big tiddie vampire succubus ?

Inventing pretty much everything that all fighters from the mid 90s onward had.

Had this game on PS1 back in the day. That was like 25 years ago. So much soul.

But vampires dont even have souls

She's someone's mom...

I like Night Warriors more

Probably out of embarrassment. It is pretty much a pervo game for pervs.

Is this a subtle "who wants to play Savior thread?" If so I'll play some matches.

Someone post the code

Despite what the fanart might lead you to believe, no, it isn't. SF5 is more sexualized than anything in Darkstalkers.

user, Capcom is a company that was once saved from bankruptcy by a strip mahjong game. They aren't ones to shy away from sex.

Is that story about capcom usa telling capcom japan about succubus folklore really true? Hard to imagine a time when japan did not have sex demons to put into all of its porn.

The Japanese devs themselves say that she was going to be a vampire at first and was only changed to a succubus partway through development. So it seems to check out.

She doesn't do porn anymore, she's a cosplay-thot now

Darkstalkers is popular only among oldfags with nostalgia from the golden age of arcades. Its dead Jim.
And thats a good thing because I dont want the series to go the same route of SF4 and 5

Why is DS the only dead Capcom fighting game series that anyone ever says they want to bring back? Rival Schools, Power Stone, and even Cyberbots are just as deserving.

Because it was far more popular and successful than those.

You forgot Star Gladiator you massive cocksucker nigger thot.

Yep, this is a Yas Forums post about fighting games

It was neither popular nor successful.

who puta is this?

Out of those three, I think Power Stone is the only interesting choice that would probably do decently.

Not like anyone really remembers that, remember way too many people thinking Hayato was an original character for MvC2 when it was new.

Capcom uses the DS IP more than 90% of their IPs. Morrigan is in everything and they slap a couple other DS characters next to her just because. Teppen has multiple cards that feature the whole roster of the series at this point.

Why would anyone want to remember that crap?
Old and niche doesnt equals good

I mean, who doesn't bash their meat to Sasquatch?

because It is too erotic.
