So we're getting a new Megaman game…kinda. Keiji Inafune is running a kick starter for Mighty No.9, the spiritual successor to the Blue Bomber:
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...o9/mighty-no-9 Currently, only a PC version is announced but if the goal stretches beyond the set amount they'll release it on consoles and other operating systems too. If anyone here is a Megaman fan, I strongly suggest supporting this project if only to give a big F you to Capcom. |

It looks interesting.

I want this to fail, because Mega Man fans piss me off, and I want them to see the consequences of their actions.

@Matrixbeast: Dude, that's just mean.
Why would you want that to happen? Capcom won't be doing anything Mega Man and Kenji's being nice enough to offer the opinion of getting this ported to consoles. Personal experience? If it makes you feel better I'm hoping Fighting is Magic does well. |

That seems…unbelievably harsh, dude. In what way is it the fan's fault? |

Hell, both projects are awesome ideas that some big company put the kibosh on because of stupidity, and now the idea is getting a new chance. All fueled on Spite and Dreams. Or at least, that's what I see. And damn, I hope Keiji exceeds his goal and goes console. Such joy will sweep the gaming community and such anguish and remorse will hopefully sweep through Capcom. |

When 9 and 10 are decried as trying to capture the glory days of the classics, when Starforce is decried as dickriding off Battle Network's popularity, when fans act angry over the cancellation of a generic FPS (That would've been completely decimated on a critical level as being a generic, "Darker and edgier" remake) just because it bore the "Mega Man" name, it's getting ridiculous. Capcom gives the fans what they want, that being Classic Mega Man, and they get torn apart for not being innovative or creative, and just rehashing what worked two decades ago. Capcom gives the fans what they want, that being a unique take on Mega Man, and they get torn apart because it's alien to fans and it's not "Their Mega Man." Capcom gives the fans what they want, that being Mega Man in a crossover fighter. In what's clearly just a joke fighter, they get torn apart because it's not X or Rock. Capcom has made bad decisions, but ultimately ending the Mega Man franchise was not one of them.

Capcom over saturating the market with rehashes of Megaman games might've not lead it to not being viable that I'll give you…but I still don't understand how this is the entirely the fault of the fan base.
It's kinda difficult to want a support a franchise when Capcom keeps cancelling every new announcement, so I think you gotta try and understand just how frustrated Megaman fans are with Capcom…I mean anyone would be frustrated after one…two, or even three cancelations.

Luckily this project did get the full $900,000 they were seeking in Kickstarter funds. Very cool that the fanbase could produce that kind of support.

Well to fair the Mega Man in Street Fighter X Tekken looked terrible they could have at least made him skinnier. Capcom has made bad decisions, but ultimately ending the Mega Man franchise was not one of them. unanswered. Quote:

I hope Mighty No.9 is a big success so Keiji can continue to use his ideas and Capcom realizes their mistake
