Companies don ' t make games to pull at heartstrings of nostalgia , you are correct . They just want your money , as much of it as possible . That is Capcom ' s only motivation . Every company makes a guess as to what they can leverage to make the most money , that is the equation applied by and to every single corporate entity that exists and is successful . It is not bad in any way . So how this game is advertised or designed is with one thing in mind , to make money by selling as many copies as possible . Vancouver Capcom has told us that they expect to sell 2 million copies at launch , which is extremely ambitious . They didn ' t guess at this , they analyzed how to sell more copies , to make it more ubiquitous lowest common denominator . Listen to the hipster who was lead at VC , he says it over and over in all his interviews , that they researched demo groups what people wanted . So who cares how they advertise it ? Nobody makes a buck off being honest . They want your cash and my cash and will say and do what they think makes the most cash . Also , who cares what they intended they intend to pull at nostalgic heartstrings when nostalgic heartstrings makes them more money , and they go for new and innovative when that stops working .
