I just want to play the Mega Man clone. Why do you keep doing this Inafume???
What could they have as a reason to delay into 2016?

I'm up for delaying a game as long as it's because the game needs improvement/bug fixing. One of the things I hate most of the newer console generations is the mentality of "ship it as is, we will patch it later" so I hope that MN9 doesn't have a day one patch when it releases. That been said I was really looking forward playing the game by September, at least Dangan Ronpa:AE will help with the wait.
Businessmen are not known for their goodwill.
They're also bad at damage control, as we've seen first hand with Red Ash.
I'm not sure why a producer/character designer ever had such as high a pedigree as Inafune. He had some dope designs but people talk about him like he was solely responsible or the lead developer behind MegaMan. Megaman seems to always be associated with Inafune, but I never hear the actual creator, Kitamura, mentioned.

I'm thinking it'll be out normally in September digitally but the physical release is cancelled altogether.

aww man. I'm a backer and wanted to play it this year. Ah well....as long as its early 2016 I guess they have their reasons.

It was a page or two ago, that news was for when Amazon changed the dates if I remember correctly.

Hmmm... understandable to be disappointed but honestly this isn't the first time a high profile Kickstarter title wasn't released on time.
Just look at amplitude... it was supposed to be released March of this year... now they're aiming for December.
Kickstarter should ensure that companies put down better estimates for the release window as backers should have a good idea when the game (and/or items) will be in their hands.

Of course, I imagine everyone would want that, but comcept should've talked about it by now.

Wait why all the negativity toward inafune? Did i miss something huge? Can someone give me a summary of why he is suddenly bad and red ash is a failure @_@?

I'd be okay with a delay. Anything that can make MN9 better I'm down with. Right now I'd be satisfied if the Red Ash Anime KS gets funded. They're so close. $14,000 to go and 24 hours to go.

well he's had a few weeks now to explain what's going on with mighty.

People were disappointed with how MN9 looked after seeing the concept art. Other than that, he started up a kickstarter for a Megaman Legends clone with very little effort put into it without releasing his first kickstarter project. He's also pushing to make these franchises "big" with cross media projects such as anime and live action movies without any of the games being released. There's even a kickstarter for a Red Ash anime.
Despite getting a lot more than he needed, Mighty No 9 might be delayed and has features cut out of it.
I'm sure there's more that I'm not remembering right now

Wait what?????? First time Im hearing this. Is this true? Other than a delayed 3DS and Vita release what other promised features are not being met????

Saw it on twitter yesterday. Something about normal enemy transformations.

Apologies if it's fake.

Ray-Edition XONE
Ray-Edition Wii U
Both with a date of 30th december 2015

big story add-on (ray dlc), poster and artbooklet. the dec 30th is a placeholder.
deep silver will be at gamescom (with mn9 playable, i think), so we will get answers soon.

Shenmue has its whole dev cycle ahead of it. MN9 has been in development for a while and is supposed to be done soon. If Shenmue looks not great close to releases, then I might start to worry.
Also, there's the whole Red Ash debacle. After that and MN9 so far, I don't have much faith Comcept can deliver well on a crowd funded project.
Concern? It's August and they've only shown 2 short pieces of footage!
I don't know how they're planning to release it in 2015!

Is the any truth behind that image? Because if it's true then it's very worrying that Mighty No 9 suffered from development budget despite raking in $4.1 million and raises question to where did the money go?

Into unneeded things that nobody asked for like voice acting and an animation series...
4 million for a game that comes out on seven plattforms, 3ds/vita versions will be developed from scratch (by a different team i think)....thats not really a lot of money.
they also have to pay for the production and shipment of the backer rewards.

It's been two years since the project launched, how far is $4 million supposed to stretch?

4 Million isn't a ton of money for game development, but the side projects and stuff like Red Ash look real bad next to it.

Look for me on the local news, I'll be the guy arrested for trying to burn down a Nintendo exec's house.
Are they really not going to comment on this or set the record straight until after the Red Ash kickstarter fails?
Thats amazing. This is quite the week for Inafune!

Didn't they later state they had extra funding aside from the Kickstarter? They launched a 2nd fundraising campaign, right? I'm guessing Deep Silver might have helped throw in some coin into it too, considering they're publishing it?
