Suddendly, i have like..a hope for a new megaman game in 2015....we will see, but an animated serie could be so good, specially if it uses the style of the manga Megamix/Gigamix or like Super Adventure Rockman....i hope just It wont be like the cartoon lol.

But for 2017? It seems to be a serious project. Nice.

Reminder that Capcom isn't complete evil, guys.
Looking forward to it.

Wow neato - it's even optimal length too.
Think it'll source any games in particular, or will it just come up with stuff on its own? Either way, I hope the robot masters are cool like always.

aaaahhhh oh my god

Sis, it won't have any lionmen, no matter how much you wish :c

This should hopefully be good, funny timing with Mighty No 9 animated coming next year.

I have hope

[Emmanuelf06]

Yeah, but it's not made by Capcom..... and..ben 10? im scared, i would prefer an anime with the style of Megamix/Gigamix.....i hope it wont be a dumb cartoon....(like the Rubi Spears one who wasnt really NOT epic) xD

We will see...anyway, 2017, we have the time.
Can be better than nothing..
I hope more a game for 2015.....in waiting, i go play some others games, but i hope capcom will put out megaman from the grave....

When I was younger I actually really enjoyed Ben 10, so this sounds promising at least.

As much as I enjoy how Archie started their comics, I would like to see the show start after he becomes Mega Man, just to get the pace going.

Perhaps they could do something like Steven Universe where the backstory was explained over time.

Ben 10 ain't bad. It isn't the best thing out there, but it ain't bad, and in my opinion, it's gotten better over the years. Sure, it was conceived to sell tie-in merchandise out the ass, but it's still a mildly decent show. Pretty interested to see what they'll choose to take from the entire Mega Man franchise as inspiration.

Maybe a mixture between Classic's recognizable characters and X's mildly gritty and action-ridden setting and lore?

Maybe an entirely different take on one of the series? I'm highly confident they won't just do a straight up canon retelling cartoon, or even use Classic at all as basis.

Hell, we might be in for a brand new western-styled series, or a westernized take on the franchise YET AGAIN...which taking into account how much Capcom hates the damn guy and how disconnected they are from its fanbase, I'll bank on that.

Maybe Mega Man Universe's getting out of development hell and retooled for this precise purpose? MMU always gave me that kind of Ben 10 vibe...you know, with the whole "radical 90s" commercial look, and the game being about mishmashing robots/toys to "make your own character".

The ONLY THING I find worth caring about is...

Who's gonna make the damn tie-in games? Everyone and their mom and pop that used to make good games for Capcom is long gone.
