Capcom blames lack of fan support for Mega Man Legends 3 cancellation

Capcom has been pretty mum about the reason behind Mega Man Legends 3’s cancellation. On their official blog, it was only stated that “it was not felt that the Mega Man Legends 3 Project met the required criteria”.

A more concrete reason for the game’s cancellation might have something to do with fans. At least, that’s what Capcom Europe has indicated. The company hinted on their Twitter account that the game may have seen a different fate had fans been more active with the project and participated more on dev rooms.

“@kdawg3000 We weren’t asking people to do much but response to dev rooms was cool at best …@kdawg3000 it’s a shame the fans didn’t want to get more involved 🙁 if we saw there was an audience for MML3 people might change minds”
