But does this not piss you off even a little bit? I have an interest in it too, if the characters are right (which that list I'm not OK with because...still no Mega Man...REALLY!?) and the online actually gets a proper spectator mode for lobbies, but that's what pisses me off so much. They know people have interest and they'll f*ck those people in the ass again and again because they know they've got them trapped. Capcom is absolute scum.

Also, you actually want MORE X-Men and SF characters? They already run the god damn roster. This is a chance to flesh it out in more interesting ways, not go back to the same well.

Edit: Capcom cancelling Mega Man Legends 3 has pretty much drained me of any good will I had left for Capcom. Those reserves were already running on low, but they've proven again and again they're a worthless bunch of pricks.

What you just said, I totally agree. I have no more faith in them whatsoever.

The only decent characters I'm interested in are Strider and Ghost Rider, but I should've known there'd be no Mega Man, especially with the canning of Legends 3.

Capcom is officially Rare 2.0. They can go suck a Capcock.

lol, classic Capcom! Always trying to 1-up themselves and charge the faithful consumer an-arm-and-a-leg for the latest and greatest update, eh?

Not enough to complain about it. I've got better things to do.

Other than the fact that I would have liked Rogue because she's my favorite X-Men character, no, and I never said I did. I just said that it surprised me that Capcom didn't go and put more of those characters in.

Mega Man not being in there, despite being the director and fan's #1 pick for DLC, is simply because they're burying the character, probably for some sh*tty "Super Fighting Robot" Western reboot in a couple of years. Look at Resident Evil, Devil May Cry, Final Fight Streetwise, and Bionic Commando for proof. Capcom wants to be a western publisher soooo bad, but they have no clue how to go about it.

I know for a goddamn fact that I would never play as a single new character in this "updated" version, so I won't be buying. My team used to be Spider-Man, Mega-Man, Captain America. Now they've buried their mascot for the sake of who-the-fu*k-knows why, yet now we have FOUR resident evil characters? Western pandering much? They're too obvious. It's like Nintendo burying Mario in Smash Bros. for more Metroid characters just because the West is supposed to like Samus more than Japan.

Capcom has no mind at this point. They're going to kill the fighting revival with shi*tty updates. They've already alienated a 20 year fan. I'll be pirating from here on out. I wish them ill.

I'd rather wait a few years for Marvel vs Capcom 4. With every character and stage that's ever appeared in MvC games. Plus more.

And they STILL won't have Mega Man in it.

I just thought you were above the "I have better things to do" justification that most of the clowns here and across the internet use. You opinions should be able to stand without that kind of sh*t and yours always do, so it was just disappointing to see one of the few I actually respect use that tired qualifier instead of just letting your point stand alone.

On Capcom (henceforth once again known as the childish hater name Crapcom), I love the rumor going around that they're kicking Mega Man cosplayers and people even talking about Mega Man out of their Comic-Con booth for fear of some physical manifestation of the backlash they've been feeling online for their sudden cancellation of MML3. I hope everything they do in the next year is an outright failure.

I can see where Ninjinister is coming from, though. The internet has completely ruined me to the point where I don't even feel like forming an opinion and then sharing/defending it. I'll talk with people I know and respect about it, sure, but never with complete strangers. That's just a recipe for the classic "HURR DURR YOUR OPINION SUCKS" dinner everyone knows and hates.

But since I'm talking about it, I feel horribly slighted by Capcom, and it's been going on for some time now. Resident Evil was ruined years ago, Mega Man has been put away on a shelf to never be seen again, and now with this bullsh*t "New Street Fighter every 6 months" business that they're even incorporating into MvC3. I already bought your nerdgasm game, and now I have to buy it again for characters I don't even like? Great! I just can't f*cking wait!

Also, I didn't actually hear this until now, but I guess they're not bringing Ace Attorney Investigations 2 out in NA either now? My fiance just lost her sh*t when I told her that.

How is it that all of these awesome things get canned, while something like the universally hated DMC reboot is still in the works? Fan reaction to MML3 apparently just wasn't good enough to keep it going, but the fan reaction for DmC is good enough? What the f*ck? I've never done/said this before and I really feel like TMB now, but I'm totally not buying any more Capcom games. F*ck them. I need to play Legends 2 and weep.

Oh yeah, when I heard about Investigations 2 not coming here, I flipped sh*t too. I find it completely unjustified. The Phoenix Wright following is absolutely ridiculous! They'd be completely retarded to not release it here! Who's dick do I need to suck to get this sh*t to come out here? Playing that game in Japanese is way too hard for me.

I didn't even know DMC fans wanted another game badly enough. Wasn't that franchise beaten into the ground already? There's nothing new you can do! And I'm pretty sure they wrapped that story a long time ago.

Nah, guys, it's more like a "Gee, do I want to spend 25 minutes going Red Lantern over something that doesn't really bother me all that much, or do I want to take a nap? Nap it is."

What's with Capcom trying to bury Mega Man? He's one of their most, if not THE most, recognizable characters.

Well... he did have his own comic book series start up this summer courtesy of Archie Comics! It may only be a mini-series but it looks great and is in the classic style.

Word is it's due to some sort of grudge Capcom they have against (Mega Man creator) Keiji Inafune blabbing about how terrible it is to work for Capcom and quitting. However, several of his other creations are still being showcased both in Ultimate MvC3 and other upcoming games that (so far) haven't been canceled, so I don't know what the deal really is.

To get to the bottom of what bothers me about Ultimate MvC3 without making a tl;dr: the timing. An upgrade coming out doesn't bother me so much, nor does the roster (while not great, I'm not hating anybody but Nova), it's just the fact that it's coming out so soon after vanilla MvC3.

Yeah, sounds like the whole Mega Man Universe project really burned a lot of bridges between Inafune and the House that Mega Man Built.

I also hear Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney will not be localized, either. Complete bullsh*t.

Between Nintendo and Capcom, especially as of late (Koei as well to a lesser degree), there's been a lot of:

Westerners: "Hey, we love this series that has a new entry in Japan! Is it coming out here?"
Company: Nope -trollface-
