Great Job Crapcom! Megaman Legends 3 and Prototype officially cancelled.

[Zerokt15]

Hey guys,
I have already seen how strongly alot of you feel on Capcom dropping MML3
One of Capcoms statements implied that they might change their mind if they saw support
Instead of getting angry I am spreading around this facebook link in the hopes they will maybe bring the game back
It may not seem like much and probably wont work, but whats the harm in liking the page if you have a facebook account.
If it could end up bringing the blue bomber back then i think its worth a try

Honestly and personally, I don't really care about Megaman Legends or the cancellation of Megaman Legends 3. However, I will say that what Capcom did was a dick move. They first asked their fans for support, ideas and participation for the game's development only for them to just say "Nope, we cancel it. No reason given!" It's not so much the fact that the game was cancelled as much as it was their attitude towards their fans. It reminds me of the behaviour that Nintendo exhibits towards the North American fans who want the localization of Xenoblade.

And speaking about Nintendo: Wow. The third party developers are already pulling support from the 3DS. Wonder how long it will take till they also pull support from the Wii U. (It will happen people. It has been happening in EVERY Nintendo home console ever since the Nintendo 64.)

It does more than complaining on a news post or forum does.
Capcom avoided making Legends 3 for a long time. Why did it eventually enter production? Because fans petitioned heavily for it for years
This game was well on the way to being made
It even almost had a prototype too
It is not beyond the realms of possibility that they continue...
Furthermore their reasoning for not finishing the game was because there wasnt enough public interest or online participation by fans.
By banding together and showing them there is an audience, this group hopes to change their minds

lol the 3DS doesnt need 3RD Party support, most people buy it for the FIRST party games

[Colamisu]

It was most likely all smoke and mirrors in the first place. Inafune announces that they're making MML3, making a comment about how it's something he's wanted to do for a long time, then leaves the company? And now it's cancelled? I bet they only did enough to be able to say they were working on it. /conspiracy

Also, probably wouldn't be worth playing with Inafune gone, anyways.

GUYS, GUYS, GUYS
ARE YOU MORONS?!
IT'S ALL ABOUT MONEY

The one and only reason for the plug-pulling is that not even people that loved the Legends series a lot would buy a 3DS. They expected people to buy that gimmick-on-top-of-gimmick-on-top-of-gimmick console (which, by the way, ain't worth half it's price) before releasing the game as well as paying for a prototype. I certanily feared for MML3's future ever since I first heard that.
Obviously nobody did, and the lack of any other interesting titles certainly didn't bring anyone closer to the idea of buying one.

GUYS, GUYS, GUYS
I HAVE AN IDEA!

Is there any way to tell Capcom to release it on the upcoming PSV(ita)? After all, there's no reason why they would scrap what they got so far...
...right?

I'd love to see MML3 see the light of day. Unlike everyone else here, I absolutely adored the Legends series. Hardly ever I enjoyed and got so amazed at a game since I played MML2.

I'm not a fanboy, I said PSV because Capcom wants to gain money but not investing a cent. The reason why it got thrown to the 3DS is simply because it'd take too much money to make a current-gen console game.
So, given the 3DS is bad and the PSP is going out of the market soon, why not the PSV?
Damn, for all I care Microsoft (which I hate) could release a portable and if it gets MML3 I'd still buy it...

I think it's already established that the reason Legends was canned was because it was developed on a lackluster handheld console that no one will buy.

3DS will get better once some more games come out for it

[Mupen64 Man]

I agree with luffy, people are so quick to knock the 3DS when it hasn't even been out for that long. Ive yet to try out the 3DS myself, but people had their doubts about the original NDS, yet after a while it became one of the handheld favorites! Just wait, it'll be good. OH! And I can't wait to try out Ocarina of Time 3D.

[luffy4]

though i agree using the 3d the battery life blows, but without it on the battery has lasted me up to 8hrs

Furthermore their reasoning for not finishing the game was because there wasnt enough public interest or online participation by fans.

This isn't what they meant. What capcom wanted was for the fans to practically make the game for them.

The sort of "click one link and never do anything else" fan isn't going to change anything.

This thread should be merged with the other MML3 thread.

Oh yeah a facebook page is going to do alot...

Agree. This isn't going to help. In another Article, when asked why Megaman isn't in UMvC3 or DLC in MvC3, one of the most popular requested characters, Crapcom said, they are adding characters they like, not what the fans like. If They can't even listen to them, what chance does this have. They basically said, though shit, if you don't like it, then don't buy it. I'm so glad Crapcom is listening to the fans.
