I think Capcom should re-release some of their older games, in compilation packs.  Kinda like what lucasarts is doing with the Jedi knight collection, which by the way is a top seller on steam.  Give pc gamers an alternative to gametap and emulation, release some compilations on steam.  Warzard and Gigawing series, yeah....

Mostly because someone somewhere in Japan probably didn't think it would be successful on the platform. As big a proponent as I am of PC gaming, I don't disagree with that assumption.

It's easy to say "it wouldn't cost much to port", but a good port, properly ported and tested on PC costs a lot more than you think it does.

You never know unless you try... when was the last time Mega Man was on the PC in a major way? Who knows, it could go on to sell really well. Certain PC gamers like the niche stuff that Mega Man 9 has to offer, retro graphics and audio, insane difficulty, etc.

That's right! Argue with the guy who actually works for the company, and therefore knows what he's talking about.

Not long ago, actually!

Trine and Braid say "Hello, Scarecrow!"

Well would be at least 500,000 copies

Did Megaman 9 sell that well? Did any platformer sell that well, regardless of platform? BC:R only did half that at best, despite being held in high critical acclaim and going for only 10$ on consoles.
