Absolutely. I am amazed they have sat on the IP for so long without doing anything since the ps2.

Come on Capcom!

Sequels weren't as good as original in my opinion. Even though the third game has Jean Reno in it! But it's more than time for a new one. Even if they had an outside studio do it. They did that with DmC. Regardless it's time for new Onimusha!

I agree, the series did slightly decline with each sequel.

But seeing as Capcom haven't done anything original since Dragons Dogma, I can't see them bringing Onimusha back anytime soon unless funded by Sony or MS as an exclusive.

I think Platinum games or Ninja Theory could do a good job with the series. There is no Dante design for fans to get triggered about this time around.

Good article. I didn't know Inafune was a co-creator on onimusha. He's a legend but I haven't gotten into anything he's made since he left.

I would buy a new onimusha. Nioh took full advantage of that premise and it's fantastic. A new Dino crisis would be cool as well.

Fully agree on Haunting Ground. It was a severely underrated horror that was panned more for the way Fionna dressed than actual gameplay elements. A great story with demented but memorable characters, gameplay that was pretty much the understudy for the Amnesia titles and its all orchestrated on an great engine that loads once or twice for the duration for the whole game. I wish that it was on PSN due to the ludicrous pricing it normally has, both stores and online, preventing more players from experiencing this masterpiece......

Well it doesn’t surprise me. As much money as they make and how they value their employees. It’s a great company in that regard.

Good guy Nintendo
Microsoft and Sony are the bad guys

Well, when your games remain full price many years after release.

And you make profit off of outdated hardware.

I would be shocked if they couldn't afford to retain their staff.

I didn't want to say anything but drivxr is right.

Nintendo always sells at a profit because they purposely use tech that's always 5 or more years behind. And it's also true their games hardly ever get price decreases.

Don't get me wrong, it's great they kept most of their workforce, but making a point to have your tech specs behind everyone else affords that luxury.

I don’t think it’s their purpose to use old tech. It’s their purpose to make value of software and know their value. Nobody makes games like them that’s for sure. I just don’t appreciate their customer unfriendly policy.

It’s not impossible to take their status. Companies need to have a selection of 8-bit and 16-bit. Now imagine a split screen for 8 player game for SNES Mario kart and selling at $9.99. The problem is that it doesn’t make profit. So many companies won’t invest in “old” technology. Everyone guns for triple AAA modern technology software but honestly we can enjoy modernized 16-bit creative ideas that allows 8-player mayhem. It’s a pipe dream, possible but impossible.

If they ended up kicking people out after all of that stated above, it would be truly shameful.
