Capcom have released their financials for the autumn, covering sales from September 30 2016. While sales of new chapters in the Phoenix Wright series and the remaster of Resident Evil 4 have been steady, there's something troubling hiding in the footnotes of the report.

In the Platinum Titles chart you can see that Street Fighter V has not moved from 1.4 million units shipped, meaning that the game must've shipped less than 100,000 copies during the last six months.

This is troubling, as the company previously noted that they expected the game to sell two million copies from the release in February to March 2016. The game appears to have fallen over 500,000 copies short of that. Are you a fan of Street Fighter V?
