Capcom reckons we haven’t seen the last of Mega Man on consoles and handhelds

After two cancelled Mega Man games – Mega Man Universe and Mega Man Legends 3 – things may not be looking so great for the blue bomber.
On the bright side, we do know that Capcom intends to celebrate Mega Man’s 25th anniversary. Senior vice president Christian Svensson also explicitly said fans have “not seen the last of the Blue Bomber on consoles and handhelds”, while speaking with Nintendo Power.
Svensson told the magazine:
“I can say with certainty that you’ve not seen the last of the Blue Bomber on consoles and handhelds, and, with luck, we’ll be celebrating his 50th anniversary, including all of the games you’re going to enjoy over the next 25 years. That said, an issue we’ve had in the past has been talking about games and announcing them before we’re certain they’re going to come out, which unfortunately has lead to profound disappointment for many fans. So for now, I’m going to have to stay mum about any details.”

Scott Moffitt says that the Wii U’s deluxe Set is selling extremely well
Posted on 12 years ago by Austin(@NE_Austin) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
Nintendo of America’s executive vice president of sales and marketing (and guy-who-sort-of-sounds-like-a-nursery-rhyme-character) Scott Moffitt said that the response to the Wii U deluxe set has been extremely positive, and he thinks it means Nintendo priced it properly:
“All I can say is that the response has been phenomenal and we’re getting, especially in the higher priced deluxe set, that one’s selling out incredibly quickly. That seems to indicate that the pricing’s in a good spot and the proof is in the consumer response.”
He also went on to reiterate that while initial demand seems to be higher than it was for Wii, Nintendo will also have “more systems on hand for the Wii U than we did for the launch of Wii” and that “replenishments will be more frequent this holiday time than during the Wii launch.”
All in all, we can expect some shortages, but nothing on the level of Wii. At least not yet!
