Mighty No. 9 has reached yet another goal in its Kickstarter campaign. Donations have surpassed $2.55 million, meaning the game will now include an extra end stage and boss.

There’s five days remaining in Mighty No. 9’s Kickstarter. The game’s next stretch goal? It’s none other than a “Beck & Call” online co-op challenge mode.

The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker HD wasn’t a completely internal Nintendo project. HexaDrive also worked on the game, according to the studio’s website.

HexaDrive is well-known for developing remakes and HD versions of games. The company was involved with Okami HD, Rez HD, and Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater 3D.

We should mention that Hexadrive also worked on another recent Wii U release. The studio helped out Platinum Games for the creation of The Wonderful 101, too.

Unsurprisingly, Monster Hunter 4 was a huge endevour for Capcom. Speaking in an internal interview, series producer Ryozo Tsujimoto said “a few hundred people” contributed to the game’s development.

How does that compare to other Capcom games? DmC Devil May Cry, a fairly high-profile release, saw a development team of “over 90 members”. Resident Evil 6, on the other hand, experienced a staff count of over 600 people.
