Californian developer WayForward, the development studio behind A Boy and His Blob and Contra 4 has revealed that it’s continuously receiving requests from fans to develop the next Mega Man game. Sadly Christian Svensson, Capcom’s VP of Strategic Planning & Business Development has stated that it’s highly unlikely that WayForward would get the chance to create the next Mega Man game.
I’m also a WF fan and I’m familiar with their work. I’ll never say never but there’d be a million approvals before a MM title could ever be produced in the West.
Too bad :(
Everybody look up Sagia Casteneda and Nayer Regalado!!!
those ugly witches?!? Hell no
Just shoot down any attempt at a new Mega Man game coming out then Capcom?
Mega Man isn’t really about the super-smooth animation and fanservicey art that is WayForward’s trademark. I feel like it might lose a bit of its “video-gamey-ness” if Wayforward handled it.
But then again, neither was Contra and Contra4 did just fine.
The way Capcom has been acting lately, he might as well have said “…there’d be a million approvals before a MM title could be produced ever again.”
Shit.
Mighty MegaMan Force!
Capcom CEO:Nope! We’re not taking any new ideas for Mega Man games. We have to focus on Ultimate Marvel Vs Capcom 3 Turbo Championship Edition
THIS
Sadly you are right.
Lmfao their new version of umvc3. Defintion: add useless characters that people dont care about edition
Megaman x command mission 2
DO EEEETTTTT
Yes, do this!
Capcom is falling apart! (Yay!)
Too bad. Imagine Symphony of the Night, Mega Man style, as one large castle broken into separate areas occupied by different robot masters. Would’ve been great.
Wow, I agree
That was already done. It’s called Mega Man Zero and Mega Man ZX
Your “picture” is awesome. It looks like an Octorok
they should just come out and say “new mega man developed by any developer is unlikely”
Come on Capcom Wayforward is the best for the job they probably can make a new Mega man x game and make it like the SNES one fucking crapcom >:l
I just want another battle network or starforce like game :(
Megaman is already dead.
no Inafune= no Megaman
Just give us the sequel of megaman zx advent already!
Yes please!!
All of my want!
hmm more like no more megaman…
Fuck you Capcom.. You killed your best franchise other than Monster Hunter. Not only that, but you’re losing your supporters because you’ve become a SELL OUT! You ruined most of your franchises by Americanizing their style AND your ‘games’ for iphone require you to BUY the upgrades and characters. You were my favorite company up to 2010. Dammit all!
What’s really sad is that Capcom has some very talented people making games, but also lots of a-holes for executives taking business decisions.
Resident Evil Revelations will probably be my last Capcom game. Afterwards, I’m banning their asses from adding any new games on my shelves.
(And this is not JUST about WayForward)
Capcom should be BEGGING Wayforward to develop for them.
In fact, Nintendo should too, considering how much they carry the eShop…
The most enjoyable games I’ve bought from the eShop are WayForward’s!
Their original games are incredibly addicting, original and in extra modes quite difficult!!
I wish they can develop as many games as they can and of course continue their original games coming, not just developing other companies games.
Santae 3 anyone?
What about Mighty Switch Force 2?
Or even Mighty Flip Champs 2?
Or just another ‘Mighty Something’ game’??
Can’t wait ;) ;) ;)
I’d be all for a longer Shantae or Switch Force as a full-fledged console game at this point. I think they’ve earned the good reputation by now, haven’t they?
Why not give it to a Western developer Capcom?
It’s not like you’re doing anything else productive with the franchise.
Besides, look at what Nintendo did when they gave Metroid to a western developer.
Pretty much saved the franchise.
Don’t forget Donkey Kong Country, which was made by Rare and later by Retro.
Yes suffer i hope nintendo is next 2 die. I want 2 see ya truly suffer ur loved capcom r dead. Apple please wipe ninty off the map
Hey class, come over here! This is this the “Average Troll”. A very common siting in the Internet. As displayed, these trolls are very uneducated, grammar-wise and also have very bad comprehensions of other companies they don’t worship. Okay now, though it is harmless, you should never get near it as you may scare the pathetic thing and it will most likely end up frightened. Now, go scurry off and search your kiddy sites, educational videos, or pornography, or whatnot.
Teach, teach! can I touch the pathetic little man?
No, it’ll cry, and run back under it’s bridge.
Megaman sucks, please just give it to somebody that will change my opinion
Too hard for you kid?
“We must keep our shit coming from East. Don’t ask for it anymore.
With love,
Crapcom”
Why not? Retro Studios made a Donkey Kong game without Rare. Look how they’ve accomplished.
yes but retro had permission from nintendo, without capcom, WF cant touch MM
They’re just gonna make make Super Mega Ultimate Marvel VS Capcom 3 Hyper Turbo HD Championship edition.
Followed by Super duper Mega Xtreme Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3 Hyper Turbo HD championship 3D edition..same as SF4…
no kidding…
Resident evil and now Megaman… how sad…
I HATE YOU CRAPCOM!
Capcom Y U NO RESPECT SUPER FIGHTING ROBOT MEGAMAN ANYMORE?

Mighty Switch Force is just like MegaMan and what Capcom should do is give the MegaMan rights to WayForward and start working on MegaMan X9, MegaMan 11, and rework MegaMan Legands 3, and it’s not even Capcom fault that they are getting alot of hate from MegaMan and Street Fighter fans it’s Yoshinori Ono’s fault that he ruined games like Street Fighter 4 and Marvel Vs Capcom 3 so yeah i would love to see Wayforward make new MegaMan games like MegaMan X9 my money will go to them instead of buying Super Ultra Street Fighter 4 3D Arcade Edition
