Mighty No. 9 - Keiji Inafune's Next Mega Man

[Phantom_Angel]

What’s wrong with playing this game on PC?

My laptop is ass… I have a Vita, 360, and 3DS that would welcome this game with open arms.

I have no problems with anyone wanting it on a console/portable system, I just don’t think this game would be a resource hog for a PC/laptop. But to each his own, I guess.

[The_Question]

Serious question for the Mega Man die hards here. And for the record I don’t condemn Mighty No.9 or anything, I would consider myself neutral. How many Mega Man games have you played and beaten? Counting ALL of the games including spin offs. If you’ve played a majority of them or even just most of the main series and X what keeps you coming back for more? My main problem with the franchise is that the sequels are not different enough from each other and that just gets boring after a while. Following the same pattern in nearly every single game.

I will be interested in this one if it’s something different. I don’t want a level select of 6 levels, beat all the bosses and then head to the real boss and play through another 2-3 levels and finally face him, defeat him, and he gets away or learns his lesson. I don’t want a “Boss Order” that I have to know ahead of time in order to make the game a little bit easier and find all the secrets quicker. I just find it odd that so many of the games are so identical. I mean Castlevania 1 and 3 are similar but obviously different. Rondo of Blood, Bloodlines and Castlevania 4 all have the same kind of gameplay but are very different from each other. Just saying.

I’ve played and passed

Megaman 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8
Megaman X, X2, X3, X4, X5, X6
Megaman Zero, Zero 2, Zero 3, Zero 4
Megaman ZX, ZX Advent
Megaman Legends, Legends 2
Megaman Battle Network 1, 2, 3, 4

It’s the entireity of the game that makes me come back.

Every level, enemy, weapon working together to make a perfect run and as fast as possible. Different ways to beat the game, so many artificial challenges. the game is just fun fast paced action, and its even better because you can slow it down or make it faster if you have the skills.

I really freaking hope that this works and Capcom allows Inafune to complete Legends for console. One of the biggest gaming injustices is that we never saw the ending for Legends. That series was the best, and most emotionally evolved of the series, and its story the most immersive and mysterious of all Megamans.

Whoa looks like we have a winner. Closest I have is playing all of the nes/snes/playstation/2/legends/gameboy ones never got into battle net ones all I thought was pokemon, ehh no thanks and that was the end of that. I just enjoyed them it was mindless fun that reminded me of being a kid. Kinda like playing Castlevania games though I never did give the new one a fair shake. I beat them all and I frequently play them again along with metal slug they are games that I can’t quit.

These games were for me like that line from Billy Joel’s Piano man which went something like…

“…Son can you play me a memory? I’m not really sure how it goes. But its sad and its sweet and I knew it complete when I wore a younger mans cloths…”

Purely preference, that’s all

They aren’t non-issues: videogame PCs are overwhelmingly male, and part of the allure of gaming to many, many gamers is identifying with the character they’re controlling.

But this is a “bottom to top” issue. If it really were a big deal, then games with female leads would be getting huge sales from female crowd who supposedly “prefers them to other games”, then it would be profitable to make them. So either the crowd of female gamers is so small that it’s not worth to cater to it, or that this small crowd really doesn’t give a damn about this, and only a few hundreds of people cry about it on twitter without affecting sales one bit.

It’s like how the NBA is funding the un-profitable WNBA, and how sports newspapers went PC and put WNBA reports on the front pages. Did this approach of shoving it down people’s throats made the situation better? Nope, it made it worse. Profit and media cover would be coming naturally if WNBA was interesting to watch, but as long as it isn’t, not for men nor women, you can’t fix the problem via other means.

So back to gaming- When the potential female crowd decides it finally wants to play some games, things will change naturally, without internet outcries.

Must keep an eye on this.

I just think that it’d be nice to have some Megaman on my PS3 that isn’t 8-bit.

That’s how I feel about the fan games.

Is it going to super hard like the old Mega Man games? The old games really tested your abilities in precision movement. If you were not precise, you failed.

Am I the only one disappointed with the No.5 they settled on? It looks okay, but some of the others especially the spiky airplane look way more badass.

[Korbidon]

I want to donate more just so I can get machine gun boner guy.

[Tien_Gouki]

Is that some reaverbots there? : D

[King9999]

I kinda like that creepy one.

Yeah, I’m honestly getting tired of both Capcom and the fandom trying to segue Megaman into this 8-bit box…it’s too safe. I thought some of the newer stuff for classic MM like Megaman 8 and Powered Up were pretty good in their own right, and with some polishing could’ve been the future for the character. MM9 was a cool throwback, but there’s no reason to keep the franchise locked into that style.

Ain’t said this in a hot minute but QUOTED FOR TRUTH!

The worst part about 9 and 10 is the removal of moves he gained from previous games.
