Sony: New Store Category For Capcom
See Full ImageThe PlayStation Network and Store continue to benefit from the continuous stream of updates and enhancements, and you may have noticed some of the small changes, like custom Store categories for Halloween. Well, get ready for another one coming this Thursday.
According to the official PlayStation blog, Sony will release a custom category for Capcom. As they remind us, Capcom has been an excellent supporter of the Network, and now they will have their very own category. This comes along with Age of Booty this week, but if you want more from Capcom, just feel free to browse around the specially created section. Obviously, everything there will be from Capcom and you can view all the content separated by title; there's everything from full game content to demos to themes and wallpapers, so don't miss out! Of course, now the question will be: what other publishers or developers will receive special treatment on the Store? EA? Activision? Konami? Clearly, Sony will want to highlight the more prominent game companies out there, but there are plenty of options. Being able to browse through your favorite developer's online content could be a very big bonus...
In other words, this could be the start of a new phenomenon, although we're certain Sony will continue to upgrade the Store as time goes on. It's just a matter of how and when.

Anyway, if you look at the most wanted lists for Japan, more people want Last Remnant on the PS3 than the 360.
What I want to know is why TriAce isn't showing the PS2 some love. Where are our versions of Infinite Undiscovery (Dumbest Title Ever!!!) and Star Ocean?

And would every country's specific store have similiar downloads from Capcom? Or will there be copyright restrictions. Cause' right now New Zealand's local PSNStore has like 40-50% less stuff than the normal (USA, big country) stores.

not that i have anything against the Wii, but MHF/2 is (arguably) the single reason the PSP is as popular as it is, and this fact is most assuredly true in Japan. With such a huge (and seemingly dedicated) fanbase, ready to devour the sequel with open arms, it doesn't make much sense to just decide to ignore them.
MH is a niche title already, so breaking out with the ridiculous success that it did with the PSP titles on a system that is almost entirely casual is going to be daunting. I have yet to hear of a Casual-genre sleeper hit, albeit Braid comes close, depending on who you talk to.

Man Im such a big fan of capcom and I know there not going to dissapoint in the future.
There probly going to give us every fighting game they made n put it on the ps store. Already heard rumors about marvel vs. capcom2 coming to the store and street fighter alpha 3 and street fighter3.
That would be nice if they release sf4 on the capcom section and give us tons a new downloadable charcters down the line. What I truly wanted capcom to do for this street fighter game was let us create r own character. Street fighter is the only fighting game and tekken that have not done that yet.
