Inafune on Mighty No. 9 – IP ownership, didn’t want to copy Mega Man, next game won’t be on Kickstarter, more
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 3 Comments
In an interview with Engadget, Keiji Inafune commented on a number of topics pertaining to Mighty No. 9. He commented on the benefits of owning the IP, how the team didn’t want to copy Mega Man, confirmed that a sequel wouldn’t be funded via Kickstarter, and more.
Read on below for Inafune’s comments. You can find Engadget’s original piece here.
On owning the IP…
“As a creator, as myself, the best thing that happened to this project [Mighty No. 9] is that I have the IP. The IP is mine. The IP is the company’s IP, so we can do whatever we want. And that will actually speed things up really nicely because once the backers ask for something, we don’t have to go over to the publisher or the first-party [studio] … or whoever we’re working with. We can just make the decision.”

Yarn Yoshi amiibo pre-orders impacted at a few European retailers due to destroyed stock
Posted on 10 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 9 Comments
Update: Some clarification from “info amiibo”:
Actually, Yarn Yoshi pre-orders cancellations are only coming from France at the moment and they were first reported on @infoamiibo. Auchan (a major retailer) said on twitter Nintendo France destroyed bundles and amiibo, and the same goes for Boulanger (another major french retailer) who told us exactly the same thing. I reached to Nintendo France for more information about this.
So here’s something rather strange that we’re hearing about. Apparently some Yarn Yoshi amiibo pre-orders are being impacted at select European retailers – particularly in France – due to destroyed stock.
We’re not entirely sure about the particulars of the situation, but there’s no reason to worry about this being a widespread issue just yet. It’s also possible that this may have been an innocuous mistake rather than someone intentionally destroying stock.
