Keiji Inafune, the creator of Mega Man, is the latest developer to declare an interest in Wii U.
Inafune, who is currently making King Of Pirates for 3DS, admitted that he hasn't worked with Wii U yet but he would like the opportunity to make a Wii U game.
The former Mega Man producer's latest game, Dragon & Colonies, is going to dragon heaven.
I kinda feel bad for him at this point but he did bring it on himself with mighty number 9.
Seems everything he touches since he left Capcom becomes filled with misfortune.
- Started work on a 3DS game called Kaio: King of Pirates that later got canceled
- Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z was a disappointing game that all but killed the Ninja Gaiden franchise
- Mighty No.9 failed to live up to the grand expectations set for it
- ReCore was very below average title that didn’t leave much of an impression
- Red Ash has fallen off the radar and the public hasn’t heard anything about its progression
All these flops from the same man who dissed Japanese developers a decade ago. He even defended Phil Fish’s harsh criticism of Japanese devs yet Inafune himself has hasn’t had any critical hits of his own since leaving Capcom.
Level-5 Comcept’s Keiji Inafune recently sat down for an interview where he talked about how the idea for Dragon & Colonies came about, how they had to fit the needs of the smartphone crowd, and more.
Keiji Inafune was once a legendary and iconic game developer, but after the disaster of Mighty No. 9 and the failure of Red Ash, he's disappeared.
I lost so much respect for this guy. I am still bitter over Mighty No. 9 and not getting the backer rewards as promised. All I've gotten was what was promised in the lowest tier with a t shirt and a dumb plushie.
Have you guys seen the latest comments on the MN9 Kickstarter page? Lots of backers still haven't gotten their rewards.

Inafune is an amazing game developer that has been searching far and wide to find his way. To create his very own successful path in the land of gaming. Not surprised a single bit that he has decided to take his talents back to the big N. Nintendo holds the innovation and tools that a man of Inafune's caliber needs to create the game of his dreams.
Its great to have him back on board. Lets see what amazing masterpiece he cooks up on the Nintendo Wii U over the years. The gameplay he provides is already top shelf, proven in his previous work. Now he will be able to take advantage and harness the superior tech inside the Nintendo Wii U. Also likely to take %100 complete advantage of the new groundbreaking tablet controller.
All things are looking up for Nintendo. Hopefully he will have something to say to the fans about his ideas, and work at E3 2012.
Rated E For Everyone
a good dev wants to create a game on my next console to be bought, why not? :)
