Capcom VS SNK?

Is there any chances what so ever of getting this on the PSP? Just wondering.


Also is Capcom going to pick up on PSP development? I know the MH games are doing well. But so may games could go here. CVS, DMC, Onimusha... Heck even Chaos Legion... Which might I add was one of Capcom's greatest games. You need to remake it already...

I would rather see it released for xbla or psn. There isn't a feeling that compares to completely owning your opponent online.

Capcom no longer owns the SNK rights, thus they can't release or re-release anything with the SNK characters in it, unless they have the rights. Same goes for Marvel, JoJo, Disney, etc.


As for other PSP games you have to take into account what is going to be successful instead of just sticking anything on it. For instance you brought up Chaos Legion which didn't sell well, so there's not really any reason to re-release on the PSP or remake it, or make a sequel to it.


There's been continued support for MH because it's the highest selling game on the platform, and it's safe/easy to do, where alot of other games that Capcom has released on the PSP (MegaMan, Power Stone, etc) did not do well.


The PSP's library mostly consists of ports, remakes, and collections, however it's the PSP exclusive games that tend to do well on the platform, ie Chains of Olympus, Crisis Core, Daxter, etc, however at the sametime it is a big risk to make an exclusive game for the PSP because there's nothing saying that it will for sure sell.

I can understand that. I know Chaos Legion will never be seen again. But I always have to mention it. Just because of how awesome it was.


But the thing confusing me the most is Capcom has not really tested the grounds. MH is doing wonderfull on the PSP, why not try a few others? I know a companies fear of losing money. But I keep hearing how Capcom is one of the best PSP publishers in the market, but it only seems to be because of MH. Square Enix is really shinning. And they are taking some risky moves, but made their money back. I wish Capcom would try to do more on the PSP.


MH is great don't get me wrong. Played the PS2 one until it got cut... But alas it is not enough for a company to be praised as one of the top publishers of a platform. I just don't understand it.
