I'm guessing fangamer is handling everything and probably got the sketches in a shipment. The whole project was just kind of sad. It's not a terrible game but it's not great either just kind of bland. I'm glad that bloodstained is looking positive and not a whirlwind of incompetence that this one ended up being.

Agreed about everything, including Bloodstained.

MN9 has definitely made a lot more weary about Kickstarters. I still pledge, but I'm a lot more careful about what I back and really think things through, including the amount pledged. I try not to let my hype decide anymore, which I did in MN9's case.

Lesson learned, I guess.

 

[Ventara]

I'll believe it when I see it. These guys haven't exactly instilled confidence so far.

 

[KingBroly]

why

They were cheap.

 

[James Scott]

Maybe Level 5 wanted more multi media projects. They seemed to be all over that in Level 5 vision

My face when opening email...

[chrono01]

Email should have read:

"We are Back! At your Beck and Call."

I actually had to go back and search my gmail for Mighty No. 9 to see how much I pledged.

$60 in 2013. I'm getting a box and I'm not sure I even want it lol

edit: the estimated arrival date of said item was april 2015

Same, I tried to play it at launch. First my PC download copy would not save. Then I waited later in the day for my steam copy to work. The codes were broken but the game code work. On my 2nd stage the game crashed and I have not touched it since. Probably gonna just trash my pos cardboard box.

I pledged 250....

I don't even want this shit anymore.

If this game did anything for me... it thought me never fall for KS hype.

What's this box look like?

 

[ScientificPizza]

I can't believe physical rewards still haven't been fulfilled

What an amazing mess

Spoiler

honestly i thought this was going to be about red ash

 

[kunonabi]

I'd laugh if the 3DS version ends up looking/playing the best out of all of the versions.

It cant be any worse than the wii u one.

 

[Serenade_King]

Glad that Comcept is finally talking, I just wonder how long it will take them to talk about Red Ash and how is that going.

 

[Sacul64GC]

What's this box look like?

At this point I don't even remember.

 

[The Spoony Hou]

LEVEL5 comcept?!

Yeah... I guess I'll have to start boycotting Level5 games now. Sucks.

 

[Rymuth]

Hino stepping in to save us all, bless you Hino

Still think this is a stinker of an investment on Level-5's part...

 

[Geraldo_Ray]

It's about ti...

Level-5 has acquired Comcept

Wait, what!?

 

[night814]

Lol at "internal adjustments". In other words "we fired the people we are blaming this game on"

 

[unrealist]

Is this a way to promote the new company and prevent any soiling of its reputation?

 

[Gleethor]

Everyone who got this email should file a police report

 

[Danji]

I'd say this was good news but no Mighty No 9 news is good news. But who knows, maybe I'll stop being some astronomical level of pissed about this sometime before I die. Doubtful.

$250

 

[Ragnamith]

Pledged this in 2013 and still havn't played this. And the game ended up looking like it wont even be worth the space/blocks on my 3DS.

 

[AgentOtaku]

Finally. I don't care anymore but at least we are getting what we paid for.

pretty much

 

[newtypepilot]

hey, it's better than nothing

 

[Rmagnus]

hey, it's better than nothing

Well it's an bang average game tbh not sure if it is that much better than nothing

 

[joe2187]

He's quoting what inafune actually said after the game got a very cold reception on it's launch.

It wasn't actually Inafune that said it, but Judd. It's a common misconception, though.

 

[slosherbomb]

I think I'm suppose to get the Vita version.

I don't have Vita anymore. lol

i just got rid of mine because my warranty was almost expired. $220 i got in my pocket now.

 

[IrishNinja]

oh good, now that box for that code i didn't even use will show up, neat

not as neat as the actual boxed version for cheaper on amazon, but hey, thanks for poisoning the well with these KS's, inafune

 

[Klart]

"we estimate to release them within 2017 (it could be earlier, "

It'll be hard to release before 2017.

 

[RM8]

Welp. I'll play my 3DS copy some day, apparently.

 

[Szadek]

Getting that shit now must feel like you forgot to cancel the preorder for a present for your gf that broke up with you since then.

"we estimate to release them within 2017 (it could be earlier, "

It'll be hard to release before 2017.

It's called time travel.
Duh.

 

[Diprosalic]

they should have a "don't bother" option on their kickstarter.
i mean you don't have to manufacture something so i can toss it in the garbage as soon as it gets to me. just save the ressource and time needed.

 

[ShadowgeistX]

why

*Insert Kamiya tweet here*

The guy is truly the best businessman.

He conned people into MN9
He conned other people into funding red ash
Now he's conned someone into buying him out.

He can either keep playing this game or run off with the money he's gotten.

 

[Rmagnus]

Haha I know, I just feel like maybe nothing is better... I have it on wiiu.. it's one of the few KS that left a sour taste in my mouth.

 

[Kresnik258]

I do not know how to react to this news.

 

[Sumio Mondo]

I don't even care anymore.

I do not know how to react to this news.

Apathy?

 

[Wereroku]

Well I just got an email from Fangamer to update my address so I guess this is actually happening. So if you are still waiting for something check your email's looks like they are making everyone reconfirm them.

 

[budpikmin]

Can confirm I have an email from fangamer. At this point I'm not sure I want a physical reminder of such a disappointment

 

[chrono01]

Probably to see if people have moved and/or are still alive after the long wait.

I received the email as well. Nice to see the end is in-sight.

 

[YearoftheWooster]

So, Professor No. 9, anyone? Mighty Layton?
Not sure what to thing about the buy out, but with Mighty Gunvolt Burst looking really good, maybe MN9 has another shot coming into LEVEL5.

Better than nothing.

 

[Fuzzy]

And trying to save money not shipping out stuff to people who don't want it any more.

The sad part is MN9 could have been good given the time and budget it needed. The constant porting stretch goals probably killed the budget he should have managed the project better.

And trying to save money not shipping out stuff to people who don't want it any more.

Who would be stupid enough to decide they don't want what they already paid for? Even if you just flip it on ebay for a fraction of the price it's still something back.

 

[CaviarMeths]

The best thing to come out of all of this is Mighty Gunvolt, and it didn't even need a Kickstarter.

 

[The Wheel of Fortune]

That Level 5 comcept thing is pure bollocks; I love Level 5 and the care that goes into their games, but this doesn't make me feel optimistic at all.
Glad to see people are getting what they paid for, though, even if it's a lot later than promised.

 

[themagicalkitsune]

Finally, good thing I held off buying one.

I'll continue to hold off.

 

[Savitar]

It's better than nothing.

 

[me0wish]

What do you think they did with all the kickstarter money they got?

 

[Nightbird]

I don't like Comcept being involved with Level5.

Because I actually care about the games Level 5 makes. They are good!

 

[JigglesBunny]

I can't wait to see the 3DS version. If the PS4 version struggles to get a locked 60 FPS while looking as garish as it does, this is going to be a spectacle of shit.
