Devil May Cry 4 Cries Over Piracy

You may kick evil ass in DMC games, but it seems like sales are kicking DMC4’s ass as well. The game is doing not-so-well in sales as told by Capcom themselves. DMC4 has been pirated like hell.

I’m not sure about how Capcom in general feels but It’s not doing as well as I would like in the US at retail. It’s such a good version and it really deserves better sales. I know it’s getting pirated to hell and back (it was up on torrents literally the day it shipped).

I certainly have pushed for digital distribution on the title (globally, I’m responsible for all DD deals) but Capcom Japan so far has not allowed it.
