Capcom is so dumb.
REmake sold like crap because it was a mature-rated product on a kid-friendly console. Plus there had only been one previous RE game on a Nintendo system at that point (RE 2 N64). The fanbase for that game simply didn't exist on Gamecube.
Had Capcom made REmake a PS2 game from the start, I'm sure it would have sold fine.
