Mighty No. 9, the new Kickstarter campaign from Keiji Inafune, has numerous stretch goals, one of which is console ports for Wii U, Xbox 360 and PS3 if pledges make it to $2.5 million. Since the game is being developed for PC, wouldn't it make more sense to port to Xbox One and PS4? Both of which are built on x86 PC architecture.
"One of the clearest reasons is that the developer, who is developing the core of the production, is Inti Creates, and they're not familiar with next-gen," Inafune told Joystiq during an interview at PAX Prime.
Mighty No. 9 and Mega Man 11 are two games that tried to fill a very big gaming hole, and the story behind it all is even more interesting. So which game wore the Mega Man dress better? Jason Capp is here with some retrospective thoughts upon his 2022 playthroughs.
Only tried the demos for both and mighty 9 looked atrocious. Megaman 11 was fun and polished. Never played both full versions but will see it they are on PS Extra when i get home.
Mostly get my megaman fix playing the azure gunvolt games and spin offs. And Maverick Hunter X on my Vita.
Kickstarter has allowed game developers all over the world to bring their respective visions to life, while AAA Studios remains out of touch.
This is very true. Companies like EA, UBI, MS seem to be disconnected from what fans want.
Um I’m not too sure about that check how well those games sold besides the money they got from Kickstarter they didn’t sell nearly as much as most games from publishers (AAA or not).
The unfortunate reality is these days games like Shenmue 3 and Bloodstained are incredibly niche and the only way it could survive is by use of a fan funded website like Kickstarter.
There are games people hoped would be good. Maybe there was a great developer making it or fun premise. Unfortunately, those things couldn't save these titles.
No Man's Sky had the most disappointing launch after the massive hype.
It also had the best turn around of any game.
Today it is basically a mammoth sandbox/city builder/space sim/casual podcast in the background meditative play. Love it right now.
CD3, and ff15, maybe shemue 3, I feel are more recent disappoinments than Duke nukem and perfect dark.
Anthem was predicted to be a failure from its beginning especially since the last game Bioware put out was the abomination called Andromeda.
Well you aren't going to get familiar by bypassing them.....
PS4/X1 should be the much easier platforms since they both use x86 same as PC
Dear oh dear. That ninja gaiden thing he's trying looks absolute garbage. This isn't devastating news
DAMN!!! But they have X86 architectures, same as PC, the main platform you're making it on! If it doesn't happen this time, Mighty No.9 2 has to be on next gen consoles!
