That's an amazing project, it might even bring inspiration to a possible MM10... keeping it retro while adding new elements that evolve that particular style.

There was, but I think this is a new video which shows way more gameplay.

That's pretty wicked. Way professional looking.
I've never played much Mega Man but I'd be down for this. Co-op looks like a lot of fun.
very dump idea to release a trailer. They are going to get a cease and desist letter from capcom before the whole thing is completed.

The co-op looks very difficult. I'd probably want to kill whoever I was playing with.

Square-Enix is a bunch of douchebags defending their shitty Toriyama games. Let the fans baww for overrated works.

First off, it's "grammar."
Second, Mother 3 is the glaring exception to the rule. Lots of companies squash fan-made projects, and Nintendo has done it themselves for a few Zelda projects. This is really an apples to oranges comparison you're making.
Third, if you don't like CT and/or hate Toriyama's art style, that's fine. But there's no need to be a dick wallowing in the pleasure of other people not getting a game they want, and there's even less of a need to do so when you consider that the CT2 guys worked on their project for a long while under the labor of love.
I get that you tend to walk around like a condescending jerk most of the time,it's pretty much uncalled for here, especially when people have valid reasons for worrying.
As for this thread's topic itself, looks like fun, if a bit confusing. MM9 was a revitalization, so I'll take anything that spins the franchise on its ear like this.

Capcom is definitely less C&D-happy than S-E, regarding fangames.
I mean, a bunch of dudes from 2chan remade Mega Man VII in NES style and released it, and they never had any trouble from Capcom whatsoever. I wouldn't worry about it.

Aw, hell naw.

You are correct, my grammar was horrid. I hadn't ingested my coffee.

It's an animation, not a game.
If someone is actually inspired to make a 2.5D game after seeing this video, they should get the game's mechanics right: it's probably impossible to jump to a higher platform from a lower one of the same exact length like in the dragon boss fight, or drop to a lower one from a higher one of the same length because Megaman drops too quickly to push onto the platform. I don't think you can slide under enemy projectiles either, unless there was quite a distance between you and the enemy.

Shame that it's most likely just an animation. It looks like it'd be an excellent game.

this is the kind of classic game id pay 10 for on psn. wish more games would get an upgrade like that ( still hoping for an re1-3 upgrade).

yeah for the gc and i had it awesome game. all im saying is if youre going to rerelease games like that why not clean them up and make em pretty instead of just giving us the same thing. i didnt mind paying for symphony of the night cause its a hard game to find and i always wanted to try it. more people would be willing to pay 10 or 15 bucks if they actually added more to these games.

I think if this were real, it's not going to get cock-blocked (unlike a particular other company as of late).

Because re-releasing the original games requires almost no investment, and people still buy them. And that's not necessarily a bad thing; a lot of people want the originals, not tampered with.

If they could remake the games like this and include the co-op featured in the video as well, that'd be gold right there.

Great concept, maybe Capcom will take this idea and run with it.
