Do you think Marvel vs. Capcom 3 will outperform vanilla Street Fighter 4 from a sales stand point?
Svensson: That is my expectation, yes. MvC3 has a more broadly appealing/recognizable brand with the inclusion of Marvel, a more accessible but still deep fighting system that’s fun for casual players and EVO attendees. It’s only helped by the fact that it has been by far, our most requested sequel title in my tenure here at Capcom. And we’ll be supporting it with marketing at least as aggressive if not more so than we did with Street Fighter 4 to ensure everyone knows that it’s coming. All of these factors lead me to believe that it will be at least as successful as SF4 from a sales perspective. EventHubs: Do you think Capcom will do more HD Remixed titles in the future, or are we much more likely to see titles in the same vein as Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Final Fight’s re-releases? Svensson: Yes to both. Read the rest of Svensson’s interview here.
