Is that the MegaMan with Ryu and Arthur? If so then curses

Megaman got so milked, it has been replaced with SF.

I believe your thinking of MegaMan Universe, and last I heard that had been canceled a while ago (unless it was some kind of April fools joke) as well.

Personally I don't really care for anything other than the Mega Man X series.

Ah.....well still curses

First they don't have Mega Man in Marvel vs. Capcom 3. Then they cancel Mega Man Universe. Then they cancel Mega Man Legends.
I think Capcom hates Mega Man now that his co-creator left the company and talked bad about them.
Either way, it sucks to be a fan of the Blue Bomber right now.

Thank the Lords for that!

I like Megaman, I really do, but the Legends series were BAD! I would much rather have them turn Megaman Zero series into a HD PS3 version. ^^

Son...of...a...BITCH!

The Legends series are actually my favorite MegaMan games to play, and ever since the way they end the second game I've been dying to see the third.

On the other side of things I was never gonna buy a 3DS just to play it. Plus the whole include the fans in the development process, to me, was not gonna have a very good impact on the finished product.

The original MM and MMX series> all other MM media

But, yes, Capcom would fuck your girlfriend if given the opportunity.


One of the only good decisions they made regarding MvC3. Arthur fo' lyfe.

I hope they announce Monster Hunter for the 3DS to make up for this blasphemy. My faith in Capcom is starting to fade, too.

I'm officially done with Capcom. Not just for MML3 being canceled. A lot of reasons, up to and including:

- Charging almost $20 for on-disc costumes in Street Fighter IV
- Charging $5 for on-disc friendly-fire in Resident Evil 5's "Versus" mode
- Charging for difficulty modes in Mega Man 9
- Excessively restrictive DRM in PC version of Super Street Fighter IV on PC
- Canceling Mega Man Universe out of spite for Keiji Inafune's departure
- Claiming "Super Street Fighter IV" was the last and final version of SF4.... then releasing Super Street Fighter IV: AE less than a year later.
- Inafune confessing Capcom's policy is to milk franchises and stifle creativity (he had to cheat the system to make Dead Rising and Lost Planet)
- Charging fans of Marvel vs. Capcom 3 for on-disc costumes and characters
- Re-releasing Dead Rising 2 with a different protagonist and claiming its a brand new, full-priced game.
- Saying they would make a new Darkstalkers if they received 100,000 requests for it. They did. They then said, "sorry, we meant 1,000,000 personal requests for it."
- Implementing "forever saves" in RE: Mercenaries to kill the second-hand market value
- Threatening to cancel Mega Man Legends 3 if the Prototype version didn't sell well
- Canceling Mega Man Legends 3 anyway before the Prototype was released. Canceling the Prototype too, just for kicks.
- Announcing they are pulling support from the Nintendo Wii and 3DS to concentrate on 360 and PS3.
- Probably going to announce a new, improved, better version of Marvel vs Capcom 3 this week... less than 6 MONTHS after the game came out. Sucks if you bought that $80 Collector's Edition, eh?

MML3 is particularly painful because the policy of the development team was "transparency" between them and the fans. They wanted the fans involved all the way, to let them know what they were doing, to get their reactions and feedback, to discuss gameplay, character designs, level designs, story... everything. After an 11 year wait, it was very reassuring to see such community building and passion.

And the game is canceled. Not just canceled, but they won't even give a clear indication as to why. The transparency disappeared. It became a business-suit PR response when before it had been a cheerful, enthusiastic collaboration between creators and fans. Pulling the fans in, investing their time with the creation process, and bringing their hopes up only to dash them is beyond spiteful, and the least they could have done was be forthcoming about why, but fans weren't even given that answer. It's a cold, harsh, bitter end to a dream project thousands were becoming engrossed in.

And that's just the nature of Capcom now. They'd rather re-release Resident Evil 4 for the 7th time (not counting packaged deals and platform specific re-releases; seriously, 7 times), re-release yet another version of Street Fighter IV (9 versions between platforms and counting), and milk their current games (Marvel vs. Capcom 3, step right up) for every dollar and penny than keep their promises to their fans.

This is not the same company that used to take such bold risks and give fans such quality games as Okami, Power Stone, Breath of Fire, Killer 7, Dino Crisis, Strider, Captain Commando, Mega Man Legends, Onimusha, and Godhand. Not even close.

"They" didn't say anything--that was Ono's attempt to build support for a sequel. Everything else you said is totally true and has merit (except for the updated MvC3 and SF4 stuff), but this part really isn't fair to Ono who's been fighting the executives for another DS game since SF4. Granted, a new DS would probably be terrible since it's post-SF4 Ono, but at least he's trying.

And you forgot about the awfulness of DmC.

Mega Man Universe got cancelled?

Sucks about Legends, but I wasn't really a Legends guy. That said, I was incredibly interested in Universe. It just looked so crazy.

Though the way things are looking, I have little doubt Mega Man X is heading for a reboot, and I am a HUGE MMX fan. We all know X's entry into MvsC3 is inevitable anyway. Might as well use X and Zero while they're still high profile.

Looks like Capcom has already become the Japanese Activision/EA. Shame to see a good company fall to greed. Looks like Bioware and Capcom are on the official dead to me list.

What has Bioware done recently? I thought they only had one slip-up (Dragon Age 2), and even that is debatable.

Here's an interesting article form IGN: http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/118/1183767p1.html

Not even all that.. then they give a bullshit excuse for why Mega Man isn't in Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3.. because he didn't quite make the top rankings... despite the fact that Mega Man X was the most requested Capcom character during their polls... so.. yeah..
