capcom seriously that broke?
Foxtrot94
Eh probably yes man...
absolitude
dunno, i'm finding it hard to believe.. i mean capcom is huge, not some small company
Foxtrot94
xD so what? A big company cannot be in a difficult financial situation?
absolitude
well if the case is to an extent they can't do phsyical on a console, man, they're really in trouble..
Foxtrot94
Eh... but when you think about it, what other reasons could there be?
absolitude
exactly why i'm confused, and capcom hasn't explained why was it now? what other games was getting this digital only release on most part of the world?

It's probably because they don't believe it will sell well on west.
