Even though it originally debuted in arcades more than 25 years ago, Capcom is reporting that Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers for the Switch is officially a “smash hit.” As part of the publisher’s latest quarterly financial report, they revealed that Ultra Street Fighter II sold 450,000 copies during its first month and a half of availability, including 100,000 copies in Japan and 350,000 in the North America/Europe.
Best of all, because of Ultra Street Fighter II’s success, Capcom also revealed they’re “starting to prepare” more games for release on the Switch. However, aside from a previously-announced port of Monster Hunter XX (which is currently only in development for Japan), we don’t know what Capcom has planned for Nintendo’s newest console.
Hopefully, Capcom has more to say about their Switch plans at this year’s Gamescom, which kicks off on August 22.
