Petition against SOPA

Capcom USA’s VP responds: http://www.eventhubs.com/news/2012/jan/05/capcom-usa-vp-responds-sopa-concerns/

So… basically:

“We are represented by the ESA, we have never said we support SOPA, the ESA agrees with SOPA, The ESA supports the lawmakers who are pushing SOPA, lawmakers are the ones to blame, we agree with what they are doing, this isn’t circular at all.”

tl;dr version:

Capcom supports SOPA.

Precisely.

I let Capcom get away with all kinds of bullshit and still bought their games.

I don’t know that I can do that anymore after this.

I know one thing for sure.

I’m rather going to regret not ever playing Asura’s Wrath.

But Capcom ain’t getting another dime out of me with this X-Factor Level 10 of bullshit.

MPAA President Chris Dodd defends SOPA…apparently it defends AMERICA!!!

OMG…to keep from stealing American properties and jobs.

I don’t know what pisses me off more, the fact that he said that, or the fact that his name is two upside-down “d’s” from being my name.

I don’t want people mistaking me for that idiot.

Honestly I feel like ESA basically just shoehorned every game company to make it seem like they all individually support it.

I don’t think everybody Capcom agree, but more like they must agree because ESA agrees.

Epic Games doesn’t support SOPA…in its current form that is.

We might as well just say fuck it to almost all gaming. Capcom isn’t the only publisher on that support list.

We might as well say fuck it to all sorts of entertainment…

As far as I know, Marvel is the only comic company that supports SOPA. DC’s new 52 here I come

If Warner Bros. supports SOPA…DC would be shoehorn’d in.

Capcom are stupid for even admitting to agree with ESA. Isn’t the answer for other gaming companies not saying anything obvious?..:nono:

Nintendo Sony, EA, etc didn’t answer requests because they know that people will boyscott their company. Sure Capcom is ballsy for admitting the truth, but they are endangering business just because they want to impress ESA(who will be trolled in the future)

Now you’re talking.

The boycott doesn’t have to be permanent, but just long enough so these corporations know that they just can’t do whatever they want and expect us to come back like battered housewives.

You along with majority of the people in this thread have it all wrong. This SOPA bullshit isn’t just about piracy. Piracy is the least of things to worry about in regards to the current written form of SOPA and Protect-IP.

Even nintendo? Why is this surprising at all? The wii is a complete trash system and the 3ds was a sales failure. They are running off of washed up icons who have repetitious games and have ridiculous business standards that total to make the company an annoyance for its gamers. For example, there is no fucking Ethernet port on the wii. You have to buy a wii adapter if you want to use wired internet for the wii. If you want to open a nintendo device, you have to buy a triwing screwdriver customized for nintendo products which isn’t available at pretty much any store in the world. Nintendo also uses graphics equivalent to the ps2 and xbox (180) in the year 2012. It’s no surprise that they aren’t doing that well. I hope they do even worse, so they realize they need to step their game up. . . fuck nintendo
