Here’s a little bit of depressing news for you. Mega Man Legends 3, cancelled by Capcom back in 2011, nearly had its voice work finished.
Cup of Tea Productions was working with Capcom on the game’s voice recording portions. Interestingly enough, owner Danni Hunt told Siliconera in a recent interview that they were “almost completed.”
He said:

REDMOND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– When Tomodachi Life is on, all bets are off.
