As a long time Megaman fan it's pretty sad to see this happen but honestly at this point it's not even a surprise anymore.

Looks like Capcom just got a victory screen and a Mega Buster.

let's invest in some more megaman games, then cancel them halfway through and then cry:
in the last decade, megaman games couldn't make us any money cause people just won't buy them!

 

[PolloDiablo]

this is the first time I hear about this game

 

[LoloLakitu]

Should we be surprised?

I tend to compare this to how Sega use to treat Sonic, sure they made some pretty bad games after the jump to 3D but at least they got their IPs out there. But this, MML3 and MegaMan Universe's cancellation and the god-awful Xover? Capcom isn't even trying to keep megaman alive... not even sure they care anymore

...either that or they really want to spite the shit out of Inafune for leaving lol

You're thinking of MegaMan Universe.

 

[Hells Malice]

Never heard of it so it's not exactly a loss to me, despite being a huge Mega Man fan.

Needs some Mega Man Legends online...that's be pretty interesting. buut the MM series is basically dead, sadly.

 

[TheDarkSeed]

The company is treating one of their best creations like a step child...It's really depressing to see Rockman/Megaman get shut down like this.

 

[Rydian]

Megaman 10 and Zero Collection. Those were the last two games release, outside of mobile ports, and those were 2-3 years ago.

Maybe, just maybe... Capcom can't make sales if they don't put games out there?

 

[Kouen Hasuki]

I have never been a MegaMan fan so this sort of news never bothers me

 

[EMP Knightmare]

Being a huge fan and that I was really looking forward to this makes me sad

 

[1234turtles]

I'm dieing from megaman game starvation.

 

[ferret7463]

well, at least if I want to play a new mega man, there is always the hacked roms.

 

[RPG Hacker]

I kinda miss that blue bomber...

 

[Gahars]

Honestly, I think someone at Capcom just can't get his rocks off unless he cancels a Mega Man title.

 

[shakirmoledina]

it was our fault

In case anyone is wondering what this game would have been like, here's a trailer:

 

[ForteGospel]

imo this game would have been awful for megaman, I am pretty sure this would have implemented a level/experience system where you would have to grind the same levels one after another just to progress...

if they would have implemented also a drop system then add an grind this item, grind that item... the game trailers look fine but remember this is an online game... even if they had 20 stages it would be too short...
