Why does Capcom hate its hardcore fans? EDIT: Its a fake

Post by corn619 »

They've been pulling a lot shit moves lately and here's the latest. I don't understand it, these guys obviously love Mega Man, probably don't even really get paid for it and spread a lot of Mega Man love around. So Capcom decides to send them a cease & desist in a showing of fan appreciation. http://www.gamerevolution.com/news/mega ... apcom-6933

Capcom's nearly a dirty word. I think it's almost at that Activision/EA level of anti-fanboyism.

damn it's almost as if Capcom has a bunch of top board members that are secretly working for Konami or something.

They don't hate their fans, they just don't give a fuck about them. There's a difference. It's not the old days anymore, we're wallets and nothing more.

I don't know, sending a C&D to an established and fairly well known cover band that's been around for years out of the blue seems like active hatred to me.

Who'd like to think that it's just some boardroom troll begging to be fired?

If they don't give a fuck, why would they go through the trouble of a cease & desist? I know wouldn't send a cease & desist to someone I don't give a fuck about. I however would send one to someone I hate.
