Thrill Man has the best stage. How is it that one guy working on the budget of a stick of gum managed to make a more entertaining game than the "creator of Mega Man" and a team of people experienced with the franchise backed by $4,000,000+?

Naoto Ohshima only created a pixel "skeleton" of the Sonic hedgehog character. He didn't know how to finish it, until his friend, Keiji Inafune paid him a visit. It was Inafune who brought this sprite art to life and finalized the design to be what we all know and love. But because of his obligations to Capcom, Inafune was not allowed to officially take credit for his work, even though he's at least the co-creator and "father" of Sonic.

>>379100357

No, F (Not-Roll) won. D (Inafune's Design) still made it into the game as the fucking final boss.

>>379100509

Inafune talked shit about Japanese gaming being dead, but all of Comcept's games are very "Japanese" (like Soul Sacrifice) and some are outright copies of Japanese games (MN9 and Red Ash). He talked shit but he couldn't deliver.

>>379101142

tbf he was the brain behind Lost Planet and Dead Rising, but I don't recall how important he was to MH and RE.

He was the only one at capcom that believed in Dead Rising, to the point that he went behind his superior's backs to go overbudget on the games' demos to force the rest of Capcom to not cancel it.

I think he got a giant swelled head from the success of those two games, he started to think he was the only smart person in Capcom.

According to him. He's our only source for those games development. Don't you think that's a little suspicious? At most he's an ideas man. Other people actually direct. Ideas are easy. Translating that into a good game is the hard part.

I believe him about Dead Rising, since the series is well known for its very high quality demos, and Inafune's apparent plan to make the demos so high profile that cancelling them would cause too great of a stink, which failed the third time he tried it with Legends 3.

You already did the opposite of "Buying good faith" there by hiring some nepotist whale to speak for you on western fronts and literally ban or threaten your biggest playerbase AND finanfical support base.

She stirred a fucking mess on her first day when she went from tweeting about how she never played a Mega Man game to her T3H PENGUIN OF DOOOOOOM random-ass intro where she sperged about Mega Man X being the best game in the series.

She was so fundamentally ill-suited for being a community manager that it was a bad fucking joke.

At least she's not working for Comcept anymore, I guess.

I cannot find anything about OP's bullshit so I am calling bullshit.

>>379105829
Terrible from a basic level. All the shit they had to cut out from it due to Inafune spending the budget elsewhere made it a trainwreck.

If you wanted to make a GOOD Mighty No. 9, then go back in time and force Inafune to make the game before trying to make it a franchise. Make it 2D, keep the original plans for the game, and release that.

Someone should still use that transformation idea in a game. It can't be that hard to implement and it's not like every enemy needs to have a unique transformation either. Basically it'd be kind of like the abilities in Kirby, but with more individual uses for them and environmental interaction, I would think.

>>379106056
so would it be reasonable to think he's gone into hiding to fix his game since he doesn't seem to be working on anything else.

He literally did everything at the same time. Made an "ideas" office, made a development office, made a kickstarter, made another kickstarter, promised to make 92 versions of the same game with a very small team, pushed for an anime, pushed a CGI show, pushed a movie.

This fucking idiot was so far deep up his ass you could find undiscovered aquatic life.

What goes around, comes around. This guy was a dumbfuck hack who was fucking up some 6 game series before fucking off and announcing he was bailing the company A MONTH AFTER ANNOUNCING MEGAMAN LEGENDS 3.

not really, MN9 was trying to be knockoff Megaman. but Legends always had radically different gameplay than the classic formula.

it was more of a 3D action dungeon crawler rpg thing.

What Inafune better pray and hope to God is that Red ash is good, because THAT will be the real test for interest in Legends, and he's already on thin ice considering the kickstarter failed and he had to go to a publisher or developer or whatever that agreed to fund him.

So capcom already wrote off legends when that kickstarter failed. But the end result will be the make or break factor.

Honestly Im surprised Inafune didn't outright START with Red Ash. Legends has always been his favorite spin off, and it's clear that's what he's wanted to do ever since Legends 2.

So im surprised he didn't try that first.

And then I'm surprised he was retarded enough to actually try not one but TWO kickstarters for Red Ash. The game, and the animated feature. While MN9 was still in development, and had already gone through controversy and been delayed.

Honestly, i do hope Red Ash is successful. ive always liked Legends, and considering it's even more of a ripoff than MN9 was, (and it was always his true passion project) there's the faint possibility of being good if he just sticks to what made Legends good, instead of trying gimmicky new gameplay ideas.

No. 95% of Inafune threads the last few months have been made by the same Canadian shitposter from /emugen/.

>>379115892
No, MN9 wasn't even out so people were hesitant to fund another game.
Of course after it failed a shady Chinese company came out of nowhere to pick it up. This was probably Inafune's contingency plan the whole time.

Fun fact: He also had a game design school. It closed doors last year because their students left them in droves.

>>379118569

There's some videos on Youtube. It seems pretty pointless. I mean, it's not accredited in the slightest. So the "degree" would be worthless. The classes don't seem to teach you anything at all.

>>379118868

Fujiwara was producer from MM2 onwards, and he was also against MM2, and was the reason Kitamura left, so he may have done more harm than good early on.

Not sure who the producer for MM1 was. Wiki says Nishiyama but I can't find a reference for that.

>>379119073
He's certainly crying like one.

>>379109890
No

Producer is Takashi Nishiyama
Director was Akira Kitamura

>>379118982
>>379118647

Inti-Creates made the whole game, but theyonly are talented at 2D. They can't handle 3D, Unreal engine, and have zero programmers. All of MN9's "programmers" were just people who used the unreal engine level building program.

>>379119112
I don't know if he was against MM2 or what but the man deserves credit for making the Megaman Franchise a huge success

He produced Mega Man 2-7 and Mega Man X-X3
He turned the Mega Man series into an absolute juggernaut

He was a phenomenal producer

>>379108861
It's a meme. On some website, it listed Inafune as the creator of Metroid Prime or something

Whatever happened to the guy that got the """"dinner""" with Inafune?

Myself and others were in the twitch chat on launch insulting Inafune. People made sure to call him a Kon man in Japanese phoenetics too. I thought it was all harmless fun, but Inafune and Ben Judd read it. He and Judd both referenced insults in the chat.

Did we go too far? I mean, we probably made Inafune cry like an anime fan on prom night.

>>379108649
>Especially Megaman is misunderstood by many people.
So are the old Capcom fighting games. Any time the subject of Capcom fighting game artists come up, the discussion always goes to Kinu, Bengus, Ikeno, Edayan and such, and all their promotional art is posted with comments like "Such great character design! What amazing concept art!" When all of that stuff is actually just the equivalent of movie poster or video jacket art and is done after the games are already almost done. The people who actually created the characters, their movesets and animations all remain obscure aside from the top one (Akiman). And even then people still have lots of misconceptions about his role.

Inafune and Ono are still quite tight, according to Ono (Which is unsurprising, since Ono was basically his protege and has largely taken over his old role). Inafune was partially responsible for Bad Box Artwork MM appearing in Street Fighter vs Tekken.

>>379120484
Ouch. And here I am sore for the 60 I spent for the boxed version which I have yet to get.

>>379117945
dont forget it was split between a game kickstarter and an anime adaptation kickstarter, which both confused people, AND split the potential money, since many people were not going to back both.

All those people who made comics and videos look so stupid now. But the biggest dumbass is Egoraptor. From what I heard he pledged like $1,000 to have a picture of him in the game. Now he is immortilized in a blunder.

Nope. They're still complaining about it on every other site ranging from the MN9 subreddit to games news sites to wherever. The VIta and 3ds versions havent been released at all and the physical rewards are nowhere to be found, Fangamer says they're prepared to make them but haven't received the artwork and designs and stuff from Comcept itself.

F fits more with the artstyle of Beck

>>379127786
How was this even a competition? People have such shit taste. Arale/B was so superior to other designs there shouldn't even have been a vote. The others are all low effort Roll clones, or have absolutely no robotic qualities. A is good too I guess.

>>379132916
I'm still amazed they ran out of budget. As Inafune found out, I guess porting was hugely more expensive than they anticipated. What a debacle, they should have known that beforehand. Seriously, I'm not a PCfag, but it seems to me there's no point kickstarting a game for any platform other than PC aside from pandering to misplaced nostalgia. A PC game can run on a machine for years and years, most likely, and be downloaded by just about anyone, but you have to pay development costs for porting something to a console, AND licensing fees, AND bugtesting, AND the console will be obsolete in a few years anyways. What's the point?

>>379133247
The problem was that Inafune blew a lot of the Kickstarter money on trying to make MN9 into a brand
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys8pj2EY-n8
He saw the popularity as a businessman rather than a developer, thinking MN9 was popular for it's brand potential rather than representing a middle finger to Capcom for cancelling MML3
