Man, they sure do believe this game is going to be a major success with all this money-milking before the game even comes out.

I've never played a Mega Man game so I don't know what the quality or story of the games are like, but those games never struck me as something you could make a good movie with a decent plot out of and the same applies with game.

They even had a CG animated tv show/movie planned too like around the time the Kickstarter was still going. Yeah I'm not sure what they are thinking since many people have their trust already with how it's all been handled. The new anime/game project is being pledged very slowly and with fewer people, already.

I'm sorry, but when I think of a Mighty No. 9 live-action film, I can only think of the awkward NA box art for Mega Man 1-10. If it was animated, I can get behind it, but a live-action film doesn't feel like it'd work with this property.

I don't think Inafune should count his chicks before they hatch.

Let's face it: "Mighty No. 9" is going to disappoint some people. They're hyping the sheisse out of it and they've already got multimedia adaptations on the mind. MN9 is never going to come out, and if it does, you're going to wish it didn't.

I think Mr. Inafune may be biting way more than he could chew with this live-action film of Mighty No. 9...

If somebody asks you if they can pay you a ton of money to make your game into a movie you don't say no.

He better hope the game does well otherwise Inafune's gonna look like a fool. Not that he didn't ALREADY look like a fool way before this.

The film is slated to debut on digital platforms.


This is just gonna be a small-time film.
Like the Dead Rising before.
This isn't the first time Inafune worked with Western films.

That could also be contributed to a lot people having their money tied up in the Shenmue 3 kickstarter. Probably would've been a smarter idea to wait until that one ended.

What the hell, guys?! Finish the freakin game already, before you start making all these other things.

Seriously, it's been like, what? Almost 2 years already?
