So it seems making games Sony exclusive is a death sentence.
It has more content then SFV too
One game has good reviews and positive press, the other game has bad reviews and negative press. Stop trying to start shit, even ironically.
They're both fine and fun games though.

>Seems making games Sony exclusive is a death sentence
Too bad that doesn't apply to the console itself.
but SFV is not Sony exclusive?
>>332713959
>So it seems making games Sony exclusive is a death sentence.
It's on PC though
>>332714275
It also looks better. Does SFV do anything better?
>In Japan
WiiU has sold more than PS4 over there.
>>332713959
>SF is a western game
>don't port it to a western console
wew. SFIV sold the most on 360
>>332713959
One game is and will be a staple in the FGC for years to come. The other is a meme game with nothing innovative and low outlooks in terms of the future and the FGC itself.
>>332714578
>implying Nintendo won't money hat to ensure Pokken and Smash remain at tournaments.
>>332714578
Pokken isn't the game with nothing innovative though.
Has Pokkén outsold Cyber Sleuth?
>>332715173
That kind of goes without saying, honestly.
>>332714370
The Japanese don't play PC games.
>>332714330
SFV's metacritic is exactly one point above Pokkén.
>>332715173
>has a real game outsold a shitty JRPG that isn't a big name
L O L
Nintendo fans actually care about games. Sony fans just care about having an inferior multiplat machine, and being really religiously adamant about having 2nd place in graphics.
>>332715705
>Nintendo fans actually care about games
Spoken like a nintencuck
Drones only care about Mario Zelda Pokemon and all that shit
>>332713959
Good for Pokken. Nintendo actually released a finished product.
>>332714457
>It also looks better.
That's a bit of a stretch. SFV's art style isn't exactly the most enjoyable to look at but it still beats Pokken's 720p visuals with flat texture background characters. The higher detailed art style works for some of the pokemon on the roster but it just looks off on others.
>>332713959
>in Japan
Both games are disappointing 2bh.
For the longest time, I've wondered why the Street Fighting community and the FGC has long downplayed the success of other fighting games, even resorting to unusual means to do so. For Smash Bros, it was the unusual assertion that Smash wasn't a 'real' fighting game for some asinine reason.
However, now we have Pokken, and we have the same group of people desperately trying to downplay how good it is in order to make SFV look better. Not fighting games in general, just SFV. So now, I think I know what the issue is. Street Fighter babies cannot stand the idea of anything overshadowing their beloved franchise, whether it's overall popularity (Smash Bros is a household name... Street Fighter isn't, outside of the tourney scene) competitive depth, or even something as superficial as a single player mode. According to Street Fighter fans, the mere fact that it's branded with the Street Fighter logo makes it a THE best fighting game out there, no matter what.
Pokken It's blatantly a better product to the point where you can't even argue against it.
>>332714360
The console no
But your lying to yourself if you think PS4's sales = game sales
>>332713959
Reminder that digital buyers can still get the Mewtwo Amiibo card. Just email Nintendo for it.

>>332714578
>Low outlooks in future and FGC
Except the FGC supports it
You fucks who can't play it are shoving this mentality that nobody likes it
>>332716243
Is this why Street Fighter players have added Pokken to their tournaments? Have you ever heard of falseflagging? Why would SF players play and support Pokken if they wanted to downplay it?
SF has nothing to lose if Pokken succeeds because More fighting games just feeds into the potential pot of SF players.
>>332716243
>Street Fighter isn't
Someone wasn't alive when Street Fighter had a popular tv show, popular movie, popular line of toys, ect.
>>332716243
>Pokken It's blatantly a better product to the point where you can't even argue against it.
>Provides no reasons to say this bullshit
The Pokken competitive will scene will die faster than the Brawl scene because of idiots like you.
>>332716076
Just say desu, you nerd.
>>332714393
PC isn't at fault for low sales in any way. Since most PC players are honest and will buy the game right?
>>332716453
>FGC supports it
Smashbabbies support it, not the fgc.
>>332714330
Pokken has better reviews and response from the community
>>332716565
Not him, but how do you expect us to prove it?
You can't just quantify or define what makes a game competitive enough to be played in tournaments, it's just something you can see and know.
I've seen incredible matches in pokken with all the shit other good fighters have: Zoning, footsies, mixups, impressive juggles, cancelable shit, option selects, special tech for certain moves or characters, etc. The skiillgap between players has a huge impact and it's very obvious to see, and so on.
It's a good fighting game.
>>332716726
>SF
>King of the Hill
>literally has a slew of other communities that dedicate their lives to making sure it falls (see anime justice warriors) because they think people will move on to their games
>Pokken
>Pokemon
>WiiU only so it doesn't threaten other communities
>underdog
Surprise
Street Fighter has brand loyalty that will have people keep it alive. You can already see Pokken slowly dying off
>>332717003
>backpedaling
lol stay mad kiddo
>>332717178
>backpedaling
explain
>>332715929
tell that to Splatoon
>>332715929
Isn't those games sonycuck
So?
Lots of games have and will outsell SFV. Won't stop me from playing and enjoying it.
>>332713959
>Thinking exclusivity is the reason why the game sold like ass
>>332716483
and Pokemon didn't?
Pokemon is was bigger in terms of broad appeal.
>>332716243
95% of the FGC is a capcom circlejerk. Constantly shitting on games for being anime while praising MvC as one of the greatest games ever made even though it's the most anime game in existence.
>>332717448
Guess who you sound like anon?DmC fans
>>332717489
Everytime I see that fucking hambeast hand.
>>332713959
Attach rate
>>332717556
Might as well call you a furry too.
>>332715929
Opposed to being a Sonycuck/Xcuck and only caring about Call of Duty/Destiny/Madden/FIFA and that kind of shit?
It has been proven repeatedly on /v/ that a large portion of anons compliment their PC with a Wii U. The only true cucks are brand loyalists like yourself.
>>332717665
Which explains why Wii U owners have no reference of what quality Nintendo games used to have.
>>332717003
>anime justice warriors
>>332717516
Anime communities are literal tumblr. They constantly shit on the dominant game and try to fuck with everyone, but then try to play the victim and demand charity. It's amazing how much harrassment people like Wizard and Jebailey have gone through, but then still help out the anime community. There was a time when the anime dindunuffin community almost got Jebailey in deep shit because they decided to go full nig (white people doing this) in the parking lot and run around near naked.
>>332717556
What? If you like Pokken, cool play it support it. I haven't played it yet but really want to been hyped for it since announcement. But the fact that SFV has been outsold means I should just stop playing it?
>Its another fucking fighting game war thread
>>332718002
>But the fact that SFV has been outsold means I should just stop playing it?
Not at all, but it's when you and people like you get defensive about it by posting in a thread saying "I don't care" is the biggest flag for "I care fucking shit loads" you can do. Want to play SFV? fucking do it but don't post in bait threads like this pretending you don't give a fuck.
Don't be like DmCfag who are still butthurt to this day, you're better than that.
>>332716631
Nigga what are you talking about? Who the fuck would pirate a game where online is the only thing that matters? What are they even going to do, fight the cpu over and over again for months?
>>332713959
A POKEMON game has sold higher than a fighting game? Colour me amazed.
>>332716043
Especially Lucario, who only looks good during synergy burst, and i hate mega Lucario, but i`m gonna admit it fits the game art style better then the regular Lucario.
>>332718279
But I don't care about it's sales. I'm not a Capcom investor, so why should I care about how well it sold in comparison to other games.
And the DmC situation was more about people not caring about the features in didn't have in relation to the other DMC games. Not merely about the sales numbers.
Pokken is a pokemon game, it's gonna sell no matter what.
>>332718161
this , games survive because there is a community, if after evo people keep playing the game now you have a thriving community if not, your game was a pop sensation and everyone moved on
>people say sonyggers are the worst fanbase
How is this true when countless nintencuck threads always seem to directly attack sony for no reason in order to elevate their flavor of the month bullshit?
Enjoy your products while in chemo, because Nintendo fans are nuclear white-hot cancer.
>>332716640
Please, it's nothing like smash.
>>332713959
the wii u sold more in japan than the ps4 did.
I guess making nintendo games is a death sentence worldwide because of how much more successful knack was.
>>332719042
Stop being clueless. Console wars autists are all the same, regardless of what company they swear allegiance to.
Pokken is a complete game.
SFV is basically early acess.
>>332719556
>Sorry excuse for a single player campaign
>complete
Sure.
>>332719784
>Playing fighting games for the single player
>>332715309
They don't have Xboxes either, and as far as I know the Wii U isn't making huge numbers over there either.
Honestly, Capcom should NOT have released the game in the state that they did.
>>332720441
I'm enjoying it. I just hope story mode brings more sales so we can have a season 3 and 4.
>>332720183
Home consoles are selling like shit in Japan. It's a mobile market
>>332719253
PS4 will surpass Wii U in a few month's time despite Wii U's one year plus headstart
PS4: 2,551,659
WiiU: 2,787,008
>>332720658
I hope it brings in more sales too.
Speaking of the story mode, I really wish it were MK-style with more actual cutscenes and shit too.
Basically Capcom is retarded.
Even when they make a good game, they fuck it up somehow.
>>332720865
Isn't it what it's going to be?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-BWJ9fUE0M
I only "played" through MK9's story (skipped the cutscenes because I got bored) to unlock Cyber Sub-Zero. I assumed it would be MK9 style or are they making a movie like Xrd?
>>332721145
The story modes so far have been half-assed.
>>332714578
>The other is a meme game with nothing innovative
>nothing innovative
SFV is just a continuation of the same shit. Pokken is reinventing the fighting game genre.
>>332720841
Mudslinging at 3 conventions in a row to get the other competitors userbase will do that.
>>332721251
I don't remember SF having a story mode. I know Alpha had stories, but they have always been labeled as arcade modes.
>>332721279
>Pokken is reinventing the fighting game genre.
It's something new and different but I wouldn't really go that far.
>in japan
Okay.
SFV will still milk it over time anyways. More people will buy it later because of that too
>>332714275
Right now yes. But both rosters as they are right now are a joke for a fighting game these days.
But Pokken looks pretty good, those fucking details on the background are amazing.
>>332722924
>There's hieroglyphics of Unowns in the Regi Temple stage
>Sometimes they come to life and peel off the wall and fly away
>>332721453
The manga from that image is pretty fantastic.
>>332716470
>Is this why Street Fighter players have added Pokken to their tournaments?
You mean event organizers at fighting game tournaments have added Pokken.
Retard.
You copy pasted my post? I should feel honored.I was being completely serious, by the way. Fuck the Street Fighter community.
japs know SFV is shit
>>332717489
that poor poor nail probably gets chewed and bitten on so much.
>>332713959
Kiddie Pokeman spinoff outsells fighting game, in Japan? Woooooow. This is why sales matter now.
>>332716356
this shit is honestly irrelevant. You have to scan it each time to use it and it limits you to singleplayer use. You can just beat the fucking 'ferrum league' and you'll unlock both mewtwos for keeps
I cannot wait til people try to force enthusiasm this year at E3 when Pokken, Smash 4, and SF5 are on stage.
I can just hear and feel the forced laughter. I can hear the forced FGC nigger speak spouted by white guys on the mic.
It'll be even worse than usual goddamn.
>>332724707
EVO, not E3. Pardon.
What don't people like about Pokken?
>>332723483
Guess who those even organizers are? Nearly every single one is a Capcom player. There are a few Tekken players that run big events, but that's it. Nearly every big and small even organizer is an SFfag that made the even to play Capcom games with friends. The people hosting, helping, and showing up to these events are all Capcom players.
>>332724426
It's a nice card though anon.
>>332713959
>Pokemon
Gee, I wonder why?
>>332725027
Pokemon is for fags, and also it belongs in the fucking containment board.
>>332725027
It's not Street Fighter.
You see the same thing in Smash Bros threads. They just can't get away with spamming 'Not a Fighting game!' to downplay it's success among both casual players and the tournament scene.
I'm surprised that many people own a WiiU.
>>332727429
WiiU has like a third of the ps4 sales, but it has like 10 times the attach rate.
It's no surprise to be honest.
>>332727539
For example, Mario Kart 8 has sold 8 million units, Splatoon was the best selling exclusive new IP last year at five million, and NSMBU and Nintendoland are sitting at five million as well.
I believe even games like Bayonetta are becoming million sellers.
>>332727539
There are plenty of casuals who own a PS4 and don't use it for anything but Netflix and maybe NBA 2K and GTAV or something.
