Do you like Megaman? Have you lamented Capcom's treatment of the series in the last couple of years? Have you wondered what would happen to the franchise once Inafune left? Want to see what a Megaman game would look like if it was funded by fans and thus created for them? Well... if you maintained any shred of hope I suggest you check out the kickstarter for Mighty No. 9.

Although not a Megaman game it's a spiritual successor created by the one person who is qualified the most... a title not marred by licensing, investors, or the whims of their publisher... a game being developed by Inafune himself. Although the initial goal was reached you can still secure your copy now which would help it reach it's stretch goals that might see this through to a console version or possibly a handheld version somewhere down the line!

Personally I'm hoping he gets Yasunori Mitsuda on board for the soundtrack like he did with his last game but yeah... looks like there's still life in the blue bomber (kinda)!
