I don't know if people saw this, searched and came up with nothing.

So this is a teaser for a potential, possible, big maybe DLC pre-order (?) bonus that teases Mighty No.0, who of course is meant to be Zero.

He reminds me a bit too much of MMZ Zero. I'm starting to wonder how far can comcept go before Capcom can consider suing.

 

[Tizoc]

lol I like how

Spoiler

He resembles both Bass and Zero

 

[alr1ght]

Do I have to wait on the GOTY edition of this too?

 

[wwm0nkey]

Bass + Zero? I'll take it

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Spoiler

Zero!??!?!!?

Hmmmm okay. I can't wait to see the Final Product.

 

[nynt9]

Isn't it way too early to be announcing/teasing DLC?

 

[Jawmuncher]

Isn't it way too early to be announcing/teasing DLC?

Was thinking the exact same thing.

 

[Stallion Dan]

Capcom will never consider suing.

 

[BY2K]

Isn't it way too early to be announcing/teasing DLC?

It's not even sure it's gonna be DLC or if it will exist at all.

It's a maybe, "we're thinking about it" bonus DLC teaser.

It's weird.

 

[Kyzer]

Oh shit its bass and zero at the same time

 

[Ishida]

Count me in.

 

[LePie]

I'm not actually sure. Can't this just be a spoiler of an alternate version of MN9's final boss? Or at least an additional one?

 

[nynt9]

It's weird.

With their track record I wouldn't really be surprised at this point.

I'm not actually sure. Can't this just be a spoiler of MN9's final boss?

The video's official title is "Potential Bonus DLC Teaser"

 

[Camjo-Z]

I'm not really a fan of how this game is going about development. Seems like every time I hear about it they're either showing how much they can rip-off Mega Man or boasting about some extra side project that they're working on before the game is even out.

 

[Holy Order Sol]

I want this. Take everything awesome you can from MM and put it in.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

With their track record I wouldn't really be surprised at this point.

What track record?

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

That is literally bass and zero at the same time. Like exactly..

 

[LePie]

The video's official title is "Potential Bonus DLC Teaser"

Ok, I see.

 

[JDSN]

Isn't it way too early to be announcing/teasing DLC?

Cross overs, animated series, voice acting in different languages, biting more than they can chew seems to be a pattern with this project.

 

[BreezyLimbo]

That is literally bass and zero at the same time. Like exactly..

Well, Mighty No. 9 is exactly Mega-Man. And Call is literally Roll. It's almost as if they're beating a one trick pony to death.

 

[nynt9]

What track record?

These two pretty much said it for me:

I'm not really a fan of how this game is going about development. Seems like every time I hear about it they're either showing how much they can rip-off Mega Man or boasting about some extra side project that they're working on before the game is even out.

Bitting more than they can chew seems to be a pattern with this project.

Edit: also these guys:

Expect this to be the next "stretch goal" for their extended fund raising campaign where Inafune continues to exploit the nostalgia of fans to give them more money before delivering satisfying product! He really is the best businessman.

Wow, TMN9 has a TV show, a Gunvolt cameo and now DLC plans. Inafune's certainly getting the most out of this IP before it's even finished.

They're really milking people for money as hard as they can with this project.

Did you watch the video at all? Lol. Right from the start:

Yup.

 

[Tesseract]

this is kinda sleazy, i am shamed for their deeds

 

[SirPenguin]

Can you imagine if they gate this "potential bonus DLC" behind yet another crowdfunding campaign?

 

[duckroll]

Can you imagine if they gate this "potential bonus DLC" behind yet another crowdfunding campaign?

Erm, that's what they're going to do. It's pretty clear from the message.

 

[jett]

Surely this "DLC" would be free to all backers, right.

Anyway, not surprised that it looks like a clone from another MM character, seems to be par for the course.

Unrelated, but I wish they would revamp their logo. Every time it shows up on trailers and whatnot I think "man, that's sum ugly." I guess that is also par for the course.

 

[BY2K]

Oh God I didn't even notice the "Visit MIGHTYNO9.COM to learn how to make it possible" thing.

He's gonna ask the fans to fund this AGAIN!? The second crowdfunding went horribly, why does it think a 3rd one is gonna work?

Is he gonna use the money for that for real is will he put it on another version of Soul Sacrifice?

 

[Slayven]

Man they are like a dotcom bubble company, putting all the carts before the horse.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Uh, I still don't see the problem? About the only thing they've done to "milk" money for was voice acting. The TV show is nothing they are paying for (they licensed it to another company), and I'm not sure how a Gunvolt cameo is a bad thing. And the DLC isn't even confirmed. It's just there.

Also, of course they are going for nostalgia. That's the entire point. To continue "Mega Man" without actually continuing Mega Man. Not sure why that's a complaint considering that was the entire point from the beginning.

How much you paid him so far :V

If you don't see an issue with planning DLC even before the game is barely playable then i have nothing to say to you.

 

[shuri]

Capcom's legal team must be monitoring that stuff. Wow

edit: I'm not really a huge fan of Megaman, I loved the first ones on the nes when it came out, but I've just looked at that page, and wow that new 'Might No. 9' guy feels so bootleg. It really has that deviant-art fan project feel. I assume the fanbase will insta-mod the game to re-add the original blue megaman within minutes of the game coming out for PC..

 

[Kriken]

So what's the stretch goal for this one gonna cost? 20k? 50k? Oh wait, we'll need VA for him as well, add another 20k

Spoiler

/s

 

[BadWolf]

They need to stop this, just release the damn game first.

 

[duckroll]

How much you paid him so far :V

0 bucks. After over 20 of them, I don't really think there's a desperate need in the world for yet another side scrolling Mega Man clone. If it's cool when it's done maybe I'll buy it.

 

[Toparaman]

Kamiya really knows his shit.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Why would I have an issue with it? It's the norm. If it doesn't effect the original product, and isn't "on disc DLC" or cut content from the original product, why should I care what they're "planning"? 99% of DLC is "planned."

 

[JNA]

I'm not really a fan of how this game is going about development. Seems like every time I hear about it they're either showing how much they can rip-off Mega Man or boasting about some extra side project that they're working on before the game is even out.

I'm with you there. This is just annoying now. I'm almost sick of hearing about this game now too. And once again they are asking for even more money. Its almost as bad as that Broken Age kickstarter lol.

Seriously just finish and release the damn game already. Then they can talk about all the DLCs they want to cram in.

 

[clay_ghost]

Oh God I didn't even notice the "Visit MIGHTYNO9.COM to learn how to make it possible" thing.

He need funding for that 3DS pirate game

 

[Leafhopper]

Isn't it way too early to be announcing/teasing DLC?

This is coming from the guy who announced an animated series already.

DLC seems pretty reasonable to be announced this early.

 

[Demon Lizardman]

Kamiya really knows his shit.

what does he have to do with anything?

 

[BadWolf]

what does he have to do with anything?

Probably referencing that tweet where Kamiya said that Inafune is a business man and not a game creator, or something to that effect.

 

[Leafhopper]

what does he have to do with anything?

This is what they are referring to.

 

[Miker]

Yup, that's MMZero, all right. With hints of Bass as well. Hopefully he's not overdesigned like Beck. If it weren't Inti Creates behind this game, I would be a lot more pessimistic about it, but they did make Mega Man Zero, so I'm still pretty sure they'll deliver.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

Another thing he can hold over fans desperate for another Mega Man game, despite playing like two dozen of them already

Meanwhile, in the world of Viewtiful Joe clones...*tumbleweed blows by*

I'D LIKE TO BE EXPLOITED TO, GUYS

 

[Zomba13]

"Hey guys I did a sketch of Zero crossed with Bass and am thinking about making him DLC, what do you think?"

 

[FloweryMarston]

inafune pls, already a "DLC concept"? the game is not even out yet

 

[SerTapTap]

Yeah, sorta looks like a concept for Omega from MMZ3 or something. Whatever though, it's not like you can't say Toriyama's stuff doesn't all look fairly similar either, he's got a style and I'm fine with it.
