Rumor: May’s Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate DLC to include new collaboration content
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Rumors | 6 Comments
Capcom is supporting Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate with free DLC each month. We’ve seen things like new quests, items, and more. DLC launches during the first Friday of every month, so another round of new content is expected on May 1.
This week’s GameStop ad may reveal some of Monster Hunter 4 Ultimate’s May DLC. Pictures showing Palico equipment based on Mega Man and Blanka are in the circular, along with armor featuring Samus’ Varia Suit.
All of these collaboration items were announced in the past – it’s just a matter of when they’ll be available. Capcom previously released a Link-based equipment set, plus Super Mario Bros. and Sonic-based Palico equipment.
May 1 is just on the horizon, so it shouldn’t be long before we find out if this rumor holds any weight.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo | 14 Comments
You may recall that a story surfaced in mid-2013 about a cancelled Mega Man X first-person shooter tentatively titled “Maverick Hunter”. This project was being worked on by Armature Studio – a team comprised of staffers who previously worked on Metroid Prime. There were plans for a trilogy, but the game was cancelled in 2010 after just a few months of development.
Maverick Hunter is back in the news today, as new images have been discovered on artist Jaehoon Kim’s website. Take a look at them in the gallery below.

Inti Creates wasn’t originally planning on making any Mega Man Zero sequels
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in DS, GBA, General Nintendo, News | 13 Comments
USGamer put up a massive piece that recounts the history of Inti Creates. There are plenty of quotes mixed in from Takuya Aizu, the company’s president.
One of the more interesting topics concerns Mega Man Zero. Aizu first explains how Inti Creates originally wanted to kill off X, but Capcom intervened.
The main concept that we wanted to explore was Zero killing X. We wanted to come up with something really sensational. There was something about Mega Man Zero at first that we felt wasn’t quite right — it wasn’t true to our idea of the character. So we tried to resolve that by coming up with this dramatic concept.
Within the team, there was no resistance at all. In fact, right up until we went to master the game, the plot played out with Zero defeating X. However, Capcom as a company… it didn’t serve well for the company to have a series in which X is the hero and then another title where that same hero gets killed off. And so because of that, at the very, very, very end, like right before we sent the game to be manufactured, we had to change it so that the X that Zero kills was actually a copy. We didn’t have time to change the game play, though, so just the story changed slightly.
