"Reactivating dormant IP" aka "Milking old franchises", because it's cheaper and safer than coming up with innovative stuff.
Kunitsu-Gami was this year. Like it or not, Exoprimal was last year. And Capcom's got a ton of IP that would work really well in the modern era and/or deserve compatibility with modern x64 hardware. I'd personally love to see Viewtiful Joe and Darkstalkers come back.
Innovation for the sake of innovation isn't it either, chief. You gotta strike a balance between new and familiar.
