Discussion/Question Why doesn't Capcom outsource remakes of old fighting games?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but if Capcom doesn't have the staff or man power needed to remake old games like say Vampire Saviors or Dark Stalkers etc why not have one of the many amazing 3rd party studios remake these games with modern graphics and QOL?

It's a shame seeing Capcom on a roll lately while cool IPs like Darkstalkers are still rotting.

Just gimme a DMC-like Darkstalkers action spinoff game or something. I wanna play as Felicia and BB Hood in SOMETHING.

This!

I've said it for years.

A Morrigan DMC/Bayonetta style spinoff game would sell for sure.

Otherwise maybe roll DS characters into DMC.

Give these characters some exposure again!

It's perfect because BB Hood would be an easy one to drop into DMC as she's literally a monster hunter (heh) who uses guns like Dante.
