| Kurakasa said: @Mise Well releasing a game that can be made for peanuts is not "ballsy" by any means. It is just a try to ca$h in with a retro game. As for setting an example to other publishers, isn't there a lot of little games available already on wiiware/vc/xbla/psn? Well anyway, good for you that you will love this game but it really is not bitchslapping anyone. :) |
If you had singled out any other Megaman franchise besides the classic one, I would've agreed.
Capcom actually did do Megaman cash-ins for years on the original NES, and are doing them right now on ZX and Starforce. If they really wanted to just cash in on the classic Megaman, they would've remade Megaman 8 with minor improvements and slapped a 50$ price tag on it.
And yes, there are a lot of similar games already available, but I don't think any other game has gone this far with the retro thing. Except maybe Nintendo, but anything made by Nintendo is immediately judged "kiddy" and "casual" anyway. And while Virtual Console is a great thing to have, it has no new games.
@Kyros: While graphics do matter, they're far from being the most vital aspect of a game.
