Ow.
Probably not, but I saw some footage a while back. Anyway, I just think Keiji Inafune should have Mega Man. I don't really think he would stray too far from the tried and true formula unless he were starting a new series. MN9 has some similarities to Mega Man, but it isn't a Mega Man game. I'll reserve judgment on the game until I get my own copy. Barring that, I would say give Mega Man to Inti Creates since they have a proven track record working on the series, albeit with Inafune's involvement. |
Honestly, I don't think he should. I don't think he's what's best for Mega Man anymore, and honestly, his quality has been on a decline. I know MN9 isn't Mega Man, but the things wrong with that game are things beyond the concept. It's the weird storytelling, the bad artstyle, the poor presentation, and the bad animations. Again, I think there are studios that exist that would be far more faithful to Mega Man than he would be and they'd frankly make better games than he would make.
Retro Studios. Yacht Club. Wayforward. Give the Blue Bomber to one of them, preferably in that order. They'd all make absolutely fantastic 2D Mega Man games, especially Retro. But keep Inafune far, far away. He's almost as bad as Sakamoto is to Metroid, if I'm being honest.
...Almost.
