And that's it, thanks for watching!

22:56

Loads of Capcom games are on sale on the PS Store right now.

22:55

There's no time limit on the demo, so you can play as much as you like.

22:54

Resident Evil 4's Chainsaw Demo is out today!

22:52

Resident Evil Death Island is launching in the summer. And now it's time for the main event: Resident Evil 4.

22:52

Looks like we're kicking this section off with the latest animated movie.

22:51

Time for Resident Evil news...

22:50

It's launching on 28th April, 2023, and you can pre-order now if you want to.

22:49

As expected, Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak is coming to PS5 and PS4.

22:49

There are some pre-order bonuses in the form of extra background wallpapers and music.

22:45

Right, we're moving on... Ghost Trick is next up! This was an absolute classic on Nintendo DS. And it's launching on PS4 from 30th June.

22:42

There's a Battle Pass and all sorts of live service stuff.

22:42

Exoprimal launches 14th July on PS5 and PS4.

An open beta test is coming 17th March to 19th March.

22:39

And now it's time for a brand new look at Exoprimal. The release date has already leaked: 14th July.

22:38

Capcom will celebrate its 40th anniversary with an online museum named Capcom Town.

22:37

Not much new on Street Fighter 6 there, just a new commentator.

22:34

Now we're moving on to Street Fighter 6, ahead of its release in June.

22:33

So, they've added an Easy Mode (essentially) and all of the E-Reader content. Pretty cool collection.

22:31

We're starting with the frankly enormous Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, which is an absurdly huge compilation. Good luck adding this one to your backlog!

22:30

Here we go...

22:30

Right then, Capcom Spotlight is LIVE now.

22:26

Pre-show is basically a series of trailers and commercials for previously released Capcom games. Which is fair enough, to be honest -- these are all good games!

22:22

Capcom Spotlight's pre-show is live now.

22:21

No... Now we're getting a pre-show!

22:20

Okay, we got music and... It's a countdown! You still got 10 more minutes, folks.

22:20

Anyway, the stream is live but just a static picture at the moment. We wait. We wait.

22:20

Don't really know what's going on with this pre-show part, doesn't look like there's going to be one now?

22:18

We're most likely getting an Exoprimal release date, Resident Evil 4 demo, and Monster Hunter Rise Sunbreak release date tonight. Anything else you want?

22:17

Capcom Spotlight is about to get underway. Join us LIVE.

22:02

You've got time for a bathroom break and quick cup of tea, at least!

22:01

So, seems like the pre-show will /actually/ get underway at about 2:20PM PT/10:20PM PT. Capcom had previously said about 2:10PM PT/10:20PM PT. Let's wait and see...

17:50

Hello everyone! The Capcom Spotlight showcase livestream pre-show will get underway from 2PM PT/10PM GMT, so be sure to join us live.

later

KundaliniRising333 said:

yah i hear that!

BeerIsAwesome said:

Right, see y'all in another angry comments section. Later all!

BeerIsAwesome said:

@KundaliniRising333 You're probably right in that regard. I think these games are just a little more exciting to look forward to.

Grumblevolcano said:

Exoprimal being typical live service nonsense was a bummer.

KundaliniRising333 said:

it was identical/ just one large marketing trailer

Stay frosty, marines!

Eadgar said:

Good night all! Stay safe!

KundaliniRising333 said:

how was it better?

BeerIsAwesome said:

That was better than the Nacon presser earlier, but not the best one I've ever seen. Roll on the Summer Games Fest when there's the big stuff.

Two new scene captures from the movie and that’s about all I get out of this showcase.

Uncharted2007 said:

No Dino Crisis... again....

BeerIsAwesome said:

yay, stuff!

BeerIsAwesome said:

@BearsEatBeets No spoilers, right?

KundaliniRising333 said:

i thought this was current gen only.

BearsEatBeets said:

I'll skip the demo, I'd rather experience it all new when it launches

KundaliniRising333 said:

is this a cross gen game?!

BeerIsAwesome said:

The worst kept secret in today's gaming news.

KundaliniRising333 said:

wait what

Uncharted2007 said:

Nice. The Remake demo is the same area as the original demo on Gamecube.

BeerIsAwesome said:

Gamecube port of this game plz.

RE9 please

BeerIsAwesome said:

Funnily enough, the first bluray I ever owned was Resident Evil Degeneration. Remember being blown away by the picture quality when I got my first HDTV.

continuation from Vengence

Uncharted2007 said:

50/50 they announce RE5 Remake.

Uncharted2007 said:

Ok

BearsEatBeets said:

Yes

Yeah

Uncharted2007 said:

Wait... is it a movie?

Fizza said:

she looks exactly she does in RE3 Remake XD

Fizza said:

I think I heard about this actually!

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Uncharted2007 We wait in vain my friend.

Fizza said:

is this a movie

Uncharted2007 said:

Another movie?

Fizza said:

Uncharted2007 said:

Hoping for Dino Crisis still.

Fizza said:

grumblevolcano there ya go XD

QBGaming12 said:

I do miss the Toukiden games.

BeerIsAwesome said:

I still have to start a Monster Hunter game. Still remember enjoying the Toukiden games.

Grumblevolcano said:

Come on announce the April update for Switch

KundaliniRising333 said:

Areus said:

Fizza said:

Fizza said:

literally about to go on the eShop right now

Fizza said:

I am so damn excited dude

BeerIsAwesome said:

Stream just started lagging for me, just as they were about to announce the live service elements. 😜

Fizza said:

TAKUMI!!!!

Fizza said:

I'll stick to the ogs for my first playthrough

if they announce a season pass for this….

Fizza said:

THAT'S ME SET FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR OMG

BeerIsAwesome said:

F

Fizza said:

THIS IS WHAT I WAS WAITING FOR

BeerIsAwesome said:

Remember last month when like 6 live service games announced they were shutting down? I think we've hit peak online-gaming saturation.

Fizza said:

YESYES YES

Fizza said:

I do hope there's an actual single player as well

Grumblevolcano said:

It's going the same way as Suicide Squad but this time on Game Pass

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Fizza There are worse out there. Companies count on us idiots being completionists.

yes, we know what a season pass is, thanks!

KundaliniRising333 said:

that went so well for Rocksteady

KundaliniRising333 said:

oh wow.... they are going into detail on this. lmfao'

Fizza said:

I'm gonna give it the benefit of the doubt: Capcom does a pretty good job with live service games recently

BeerIsAwesome said:

Wow, gaudy!

Fizza said:

NO YOU CAN'T SHOW THE GREEN COMPANY HERE

KundaliniRising333 said:

It really doesnt matter how good these types of game are, I will never play them for their predatory core design gimmicks alone

BeerIsAwesome said:

Games have too many battle passes, said no executive ever.

Fizza said:

uh oh

Grumblevolcano said:

Oh no, Battle Pass

Eadgar said:

Battle Pass

Fizza said:

ooooh

QBGaming12 said:

This looks like cheesy version of Binary Domain, which I wish got a sequel

its a sign!

BeerIsAwesome said:

This is an online battle arena though, so...

she’s got Jill Valentines hairstyle

KundaliniRising333 said:

if this just wasnt another 3rd person co op shooter..... such a shame.

Fizza said:

genji?

get2sammyb said:

This looks so weird lol

Fizza said:

cheesy action movie vocals: I LOVE IT

BeerIsAwesome said:

A redheaded heroine with a bob-length haircut? Definitely Regina from Dino Crisis.

Areus said:

You know it would be funny if we got an update about deepdown from capcom

BeerIsAwesome said:

Welcome welcome!

BeerIsAwesome said:

Dinosaurnado? Dinonado? Dinado?

Good evening all just tuned in

BeerIsAwesome said:

Fizza said:

BeerIsAwesome said:

Metaverse?

KundaliniRising333 said:

wt actual F

Fizza said:

ACE ATTORNEY!

BeerIsAwesome said:

The last time I played online in a fighting game, I took 10 losses in a row before I noped out. I don't think I'll be winning that cup.

BeerIsAwesome said:

We need Red-eye to commentate this game with "Brutal, savage, rekt".

BearsEatBeets said:

Will they mock how naff I am?

Fizza said:

rooflemonger is losing his MIND

No xbox, Phil can’t have offered game pass money

Fizza said:

WHAT

QBGaming12 said:

I can't wait to play this

Fizza said:

great collection honestly

BeerIsAwesome said:

Where's my e-reader Sony? 😛

Areus said:

i plantinumed most of the mainline games and some of the side games

Fizza said:

oh s*** e-reader?!

Grumblevolcano said:

GBA E-reader content!

Fizza said:

crazy to think this is out in a month

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Areus Lol. I think there are something like 80 Final Fantasy games out there. Imagine 100%ing all of them!

Fizza said:

@Areus not enough .

Areus said:

to many

BeerIsAwesome said:

Anyone want to count the number of Mega Man games and spin-offs there are?

Fizza said:

I HAAAAATE the smoothing effect oh GOD

BearsEatBeets said:

tennis match finished just in time for the main event

Fizza said:

Here we go guys!

Fizza said:

@get2sammyb ohhhhhhh, thank you XD

get2sammyb said:

I think on Twitch they are

Fizza said:

I saw something on Twitter that said Sphere Hunter and Runebee were hosting the pre-show, was I mistaken?

Fizza said:

@Beerisawesome going thru a similar thing myself, just picked up Zack & Wiki for the Wii because of it!

BeerIsAwesome said:

I wish I was 10 years older, so I could've played these games at the time.

Fizza said:

could you IMAGINE if we get a TGAA trailer here XD

Eadgar said:

Glad to hear that good sir.

Fizza said:

@eadgar Grabbed it myself last year, can't recommend it enough! (especially Pocket Fighter )

BeerIsAwesome said:

1/10, not enough fighting games - IGN

Eadgar said:

Already own Capcom. Great collection as well. Recommended!

Fizza said:

can't say I had Capcom Fighting Collection on my cards for this event. Now gives us another one cowards

BeerIsAwesome said:

Paid DLC for possibly the easiest models a developer will ever make. 🤔

Fizza said:

oh lord XD

BeerIsAwesome said:

Monster Hunter is something I have still yet to play. But it's because I've never had the right opportunity to start one. They aren't quick games after all.

Fizza said:

At least the music's jammin

BearsEatBeets said:

Did the pre-show die?

Eadgar said:

I noticed Ninty was doing something today but was not sure what it was

Fizza said:

Oh for the love of Asura XD

Grumblevolcano said:

The Mario movie Direct probably complicated things regarding this Capcom stream

BeerIsAwesome said:

Sweet, a countdown to a countdown!

BeerIsAwesome said:

Though Panasonics tend not to be sold as much in shops these days. Didn't even see a display one in the shop.

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Eadgar I don't regret it at all. I'm already liking this TV. As long as it's a Sony, LG, Samsung or Panasonic, you can always be sure it'll be a good TV.

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Eadgar matter) don't even have Crunchyroll, but weirdly Funimation.

Eadgar said:

Samsung is a decent brand as well. Can never go wrong with them. You definitely made a good purchase.

BeerIsAwesome said:

@Eadgar Sonys are Android TVs, and my parents have a non-Sony Android TV. It has SO MANY apps on it. You want something on there, you'll definitely find it. Samsung (and LG for that

BeerIsAwesome said:

@BearsEatBeets Hehehe. I would if the picture quality in the shop wasn't so glorious. Sound is lovely, and it's just generally a good TV!

BeerIsAwesome said:

Don't worry, there are ways of avoiding it, like just selecting the HDMI via the "source" button.

BearsEatBeets said:

@BeerIsAwesome sacrilege! Take the TV back immediately

Eadgar said:

just described.

Eadgar said:

Speaking of tellies, I need to upgrade from my Samsung from 2013. It was my first HD telly and has serve me well. Looking at a Sony for this next purchase to avoid what you have

BeerIsAwesome said:

A bright green banner that says "GET XBOX GAME PASS!" 😐

BeerIsAwesome said:

recognises it as a console and goes into a "game centre". All very clever! But what's the first thing I see when I'm in this game centre?

BeerIsAwesome said:

Hey peoples. I have an anecdote: Yesterday I bought a new TV because my old one was starting to lose it's sound. It's a new Samsung TV, and when I hooked my PS5 up to it,

ice t acting skills are admirable

I’m watching Law & Order whilst waiting. I should get a cup of tea

Fizza said:

This company summons me, hello everyone XD

Eadgar said:

7! VII!

BearsEatBeets said:

Are you sure about the pre-show time? I have a countdown clock for 20 mins

Evening all

Eadgar said:

Greetings Playstation Nation. Hope everyone is doing well.

ShogunRok said:

Who's ready for an hour-long Dragon's Dogma 2 blowout?!

BearsEatBeets said:

Going to try and keep an eye on this whilst watching the tennis. Capcom have some good stuff, a surprise reveal would be great

Hey Sammy
