I was reading the round-table on 2012, and in the recollections of 2011 the loss of Mega Man was mentioned. I'm still upset by this. I just kind of sat there for a second thinking about the awesome 3D Mario and Sonic games. There was even Shinobi. But there was no next gen 3D Mega Man installment. It just seems so...odd. I guess Mega Man has recently had several lackluster X installments, but thinking about playing Mega Man Maverick Hunter X on my PSP earlier this year made me really wish we had seen an awesome new installment in the Mega Man Series. I want Mega Man Legends 3 back! And who else thinks that a new 3D Mega Man X game with 2D sprites would be awesome? Is Mega Man dead?

I think I might try to terminate my account. I'm not cut out for posting on forums lol

When he's actually dead then we should begin complaining.

I think Capcom specifically addressed this a few months ago. They were like, "We've got more Mega Man announcements coming soon, just be patient. We don't want another MML3/MMU."

Mega Man Universe had potential, they just needed to change the dreadful artstyle.

It's also shame that Mega Man Powered Up only had one installment. I was hoping Capcom would continue the series on 3DS or XBLA / PSN...

Yeah well I know that really haha I probably shouldn't have bothered asking if Mega Man was dead at the end. Sigh... But I still feel weird that there was no great next gen Mega Man. I really want to hear some of these darn announcements soon. I've loved Mega Man since I was a wee tyke playing Mega Man X on his family's SNES. And Mega Man II on Game Boy. I'd like to see a Mega Man game on 3DS with 2D sprites and awesome 3D effects.

Acording to Wikipedia December of this year is Megamans 25th http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megaman So maybe Capcom is planing on a a big game or games like last year we got Zeldas big 25th, along with the Sonic Generations for its I believe 20th with Sonic Generations? It would be cool if this year was a huge 25th anniversary year for Metroid, Megaman and Castlevania.?!?!?!?!?!

I doubt they'll rush a new version of a fighting game no one wants just to compete with tons of other far more popular and better games.

I doubt they'll put in an anti-used game save feature that will likely do absolutely nothing to prevent used games.

I doubt they'll say the DS sequel to Okami being released the same month as Pokemon games did better in 2 weeks than the last Ace Attorney game has done period.

I doubt they'll let an idiot handle their twitter in Europe. That would just be embarrassing.

You guys are all overreacting. If Sega can revive the Sonic franchise, then Capcom can revive the Mega Man franchise.

Oh wait, they already did with Mega Man 9 and Mega Man 10.

Mega Man Universe was likely cancelled because it looked like crap. The concept was great, but the art style was terribly ugly.

It still amazes me how Mario, Zelda and Metroid have kept going strong for over 25 years.
Then out of the blue Mega man's creator leaves Capcom and suddenly it's all over for Mega man.
I fear the day when Miyamoto leaves Nintendo. I really do.

Miyamoto leaving Nintendo wouldn't be that bad.
Mario wouldn't be the same, but Aonuma would look after Zelda and... whatever the other guy is called would look after Metroid.

@joevox316: I'd plunk down on a new 2.5D MMX as long as the gameplay is solid. Bonus for me would be 2D High Res Sprites and well animated backgrounds (doesn't necessarily have to be polygons though) especially on the 3DS. As for MML3, eh...not my type of game tbh. I would've never bought it.

@LordTendoboy: I was actually excited about Mega Man Universe and I didn't think the art style looked like crap. It was probably cancelled for the same reason Mega Man Legends 3 was cancelled, CAPCOM hates you!

Give us at least one of those this year Capcom and I won't beetlejuice b***h slap you across the moon. Inafune or not, and it's clearly NOT in this case. There's gotta be a bunch of dudes under his wing that easily pull off a great MM11....

Mario would continue without Miyamato as hard as it is to believe, so this will apply to Inafune......Grrr, Capcom.

Mega Man 9 and 10 were made by Inti Creates, an indie developer made up of many ex-Capcom employees. They also made the Mega Man Zero series.

I'm glad universe was cancelled, it would of completely tarnished everything exciting and fresh about 8-bit mega man because people would be creating their own stages, bosses and who knows what else left and right. If Mega Man 11 were to hit afterwards, it would of lost most of it's impact because of that reason...I'm betting Universe wasn't canceled because of Inafune leaving, it just looked like a terrible idea.

Except custom Mega Man levels would be freaking awesome.

The best strategy in the game: go up stairs and pause balls.

Did Inafune have any real involvement in Mega man 9 and 10?
I mean besides his name being in the credits just because he's the creator?
If not then Inti creates did a fantastic job without him. They put alot of love into those two Retro revivals!
That'd be proof enough you don't need Inafune to make great Mega man games.
Unless I'm mistaken and he was highly involved in their making.

Than WTF!? lol
Why isn't Inti Creates working on a MM11? Weren't they the creators of the Zero franchise as well?
Anyways, goes to show you don't need Inafune to make a great MM game....Cough, Mega Man 9, Cough.

Exactly. Don't ask me, go ask Capcom.

EDIT: I re-added you on my 3DS. I don't know how you got deleted. Do you have Swapnote?

I wouldn't want Mega Man 11. The numbers are getting too high. Call it Mega Man & Bass 2.

I'm throwing my money at the screen but nothing happens!
