Pocket Gamer: The year is 20XX, and it's been 25 years since Mega Man first appeared on the Japanese Famicom, and inspired us to smash our controllers into tiny smithereens in a blind, seething rage.
Capcom's Blue Bomber mascot hasn't stopped delighting, and frustrating, us since.
Capcom says it wants to take 'great care' in new Mega Man games, is not interested in rushing new products out in order to maximize repeated sales.
Good good good. Take your time... But don't wait too long.. lol. Need some Mega Man 202X
5 years was than enough time for a new Mega Man game. The RE franchise had 3 remakes and RE8 in the last five years. Mega Man ain't that deep Capcom. Get it done. 🤣
The first brand spanking new megaman I really want them to make is... actually revive and continue the Legends 3 game. Realistically though, the next would probably be megaman 12, then a new battle network game.
Can we get an X reboot in 2-D with anime cutscenes?
I like Megaman but always thought X was cooler.
Totally agree on X coming back but with an 3d look like Guilty gear Strive or DBZ Fighterz. Cutscenes for those games look like an anime.
Still want it to be a 2D platformer with a more expansive Metroidvania type map.
Capcom has unveiled and listed new Mega Man merchandise for pre-order to celebrate the multi-faceted franchise's 35th Anniversary...
The Blue Bomber has kept things low-key, but now that Mega Man's 35th anniversary has arrived, a new game should be part of the festivities.
For a while there it looked like Inafune's Mighty No. 9 lit a fire under Capcom's ass and they were forced to announce MM11 in response. When it was revealed that Might No. 9 was a nothing burger and MM11 under performed Capcom quietly shelved MM again outside of the occasional MM collection. At this rate they'll announce a Star Force or Power Fighters collection before MM12 or MMX8.
We're heading on the five year mark since 11. Sounds like it wasn't good enough for a Capcom. Franchise record or not.
