The other reason was, Capcom says, due to the game’s delay, which caused the title to be shafted on the marketing it needed to be truly successful.
This doesn’t mean Lost Planet 2 was a miserable failure — not by any stretch. Globally, Capcom has shipped 1.5 million copies of the game. While that is nothing to sneeze at, the game did not meet the 2 million plus expectations Capcom had for it.
