Who the fukk, gives a fukk, about any of that fukk shyt :mindblown:
Yall internet dudes need to stop with this bullshyt. MvC like most games in existence peaked at #2

Which is why I'm SHOCKED at how Halo 5 and Gears 4 have upped the bar in the ways that they have (Tru Story :manny: )

Now you can act like MvC4 is a big deal, just like yall acted like Street Fighter 5 was.. and yet nobody gives a shyt anymore about it
What would be kind of dope is if they made a VR mode and you had to look up when fighters jump all high n shyt.
The idea would work better for a dragonball type game :ohhh:

In the year two thousaaaaaaaaaaaaaand (and twenty)
You don't play one game competitively with the coli. Sit your silly ass Down

Thats kind of a fabrication. 2 million sales sounds good when you just say that, but MVC2 made WAYYYYYY more than that. On wikipedia it says the ps3 and 360 port sold 1.4 million. Now lets think about how many Dreamcast sales numbers there were? Then think how many ps2 sales numbers there were? Then think about the actual arcade cabs that flooded the country.
When we think about that then MVC3 was not that big of a success.

This is coming from some1 who preordered n went to a smelly mid night release for MVC3. I liked the game but the narrative that it was successful is a lil off.


Plus better to just look at Street Fighter IV sale numbers. That game sold way more copies than Marvel 3. As much as I love Street Fighter 3 third strike(prob my fav fighter) that shyt did not do numbers like Marvel 2. I bring up Third Strike cause that was from that same era. MVC was bigger than SF.
Nobody gave a fukk about third strike until evo moment 37. comparing sf3 vs mvc2 and sf4 vs mvc3 is kind of silly. for the most part sf has always done better than Marvel. SF3 gutted most of the characters people cared about and filled the cast with a whole bunch of unknown characters and that reflected in the sales. I don't know why people want to act like 3rd strike was a big thing when it really wasn't. SF4 brought back a lot of the more popular characters and revitalized the fighting game genre.

in terms of sales Marvel 3 did well. Marvel 3 didn't even have the advantage of the arcade scene because it was pretty much dead when it came out. on top of that if we are going to compare console releases Marvel 3 still sold more than 2. Marvel 3 sold over 3 million (including Ultimate). Only the ps3/360 versions broke over a million for Marvel 2. Dreamcast/ps2/Xbox versions did not break a million.

So whats your argument. Even with 3 milli, Marvel 2 shyts all over it sales wise on console which makes it a disappointment (also where are you getting the numbers for the Dreamcast, ps2 and Xbox sales, I couldnt find anything on that???). Marvel 3 had Street Fighter IV's buzz working for it, but most people went back to SF4 and dropped Marvel. Plus a ton of MVC2 heads dont like Marvel 3, it is what it is. :manny:

Marvel 3 was hurt due to Capcom losing the license, but honestly if the game was true fire it would have done SF4 numbers. Marvel 2 was that popular. As cool as Ryu and Ken are, Marvel reaches a broader audience due to it being Marvel breh. SFIV total sales around 9 milli. Thats a success.

Plus you argue that the dying arcade scene hurt Marvel.... but somehow that argument doesnt exist for SF4 :ohhh:

How does Marvel 2 shyt on 3 sales wise? And who gives a fukk about Marvel 2 heads that didn't rock with it as if they have any say. that's their opinion the world don't revolve around them. Marvel 2 ain't close to sf4 in success either do what's your point? Marvel 3 sold than more than 2 so how is 2 shytting on 3 in sales? on top of that Marvel 3 has been released on 2 platforms vs the 6 2 was on.

in America the arcade scene was damn near dead. Japan doesnt even fukk with Marvel like thst but they do for SF. Marvel 3 didn't even have an arcade release so bringing up arcades doesn't even make sense in comparing the two.

Where the numbers at breh. Theres no way in hell more people bought Marvel 3 than 2. Marvel 2 even if you didnt care about fighting games you owned it.

Marvel 3 is only for the hardcore fighting game heads.

Game Database, Best Selling Video Games, Game Sales, Million Sellers, Top Selling - VGChartz
this is the best I could find and if you are basing it off this than nah. Says 0 sold in USA on the dreamcast.

List of best-selling video games - Wikipedia
they list only the games that sold over 1 million Marvel 2 isn't on that list.

waste of time arguing breh.

The 360 and ps3 ports confirmed sold 1.4. CAPCOM | Platinum Titles

I dont think anyone, even Capcom has the Dreamcast/PS2 numbers. But wouldnt it be safe to assume the game woulda sold more when it was hot, not 9 years later on the 360/ps3?

Anyway whatever, we out here waiting for 4, im not arguing no marvel 3 sold more than marvel 2, waste of my life.

Edit. Looks like Persia is in the know as well



I know the #Marvellives is a thing. But im really concerned she only put that hash tag and said nothing about "Marvel 4"

I swear to god this "reboot" theory better not be real. NO ONE want to go back to 2v2.
