As many of you have noticed, CAPCOM isn't too fond of giving Mega Man much attention these last few years. Unlike CAPCOM, Keiji Inafune (Mega Man, Dead Rising, Onimusha, etc.) has decided to create a new project: Mighty No. 9. It will be a new game with classic side-scrolling gameplay, but with many new additions. It looks rather promising and any fan of Mega Man will definitely enjoy this. Using Kickstarter, they are on their way to reach $2,000,000 (originally $900,000) to ensure that Mighty No. 9 comes to home consoles as well as PC/Mac/Linux.
