This whole thing would've been hilarious, it's just an issue of timing. It's like if someone made a joke about a celebrity they didn't know died in an accident earlier that week.
If there's anything I know about Capcom, it's that they aren't intentionally mean. They're just stupid. Seriously, this isn't the first time they haven't really thought about the implications of their actions. In Resident Evil 5, they had you go around shooting a bunch of spear-wielding Africans living in mud huts. The implication is racist, but that isn't the intent. With this, they're referencing two cancelled games that they dealt with badly. The implication is that they're trolling, but that isn't the intent. Like Hypershell said, if Universe and Legends 3 had come out, we would've found it funny, but now it seems just kind of rude. Most companies would've realized that this gesture has horrible timing, but again, Capcom is pretty stupid about these things.
They're the guy who makes a fart joke at the funeral of a colon cancer victim.
