...its not about story =
Besides, you just listed most of the series. X9 has about a 1% chance of being made and theres 0 hope for a Mega Man 11. Other than that all you have left is ZX which isn't even popular so no 3 for that, and Legends which just died. Capcom cancelled Mega Man Legends 3, that doesn't mean that Mega Man is dying. It was already dead.
Series (dark text means unfinished):
Classic
X
Legends
Zero
ZX
BN
SF
Classic series, despite how awesome it would be to see what led to the X era, can never have a conclusion. Think of it like the Saturday cartoons ((The good ones XD)) you would see. There really isn't a main storyline other than the point you received from the intro or first episode. Each episode is a different conflict the protagonist must over come accompanied by either the same or different foes. If one episode was so deep in it's plot, then a part two was needed later on. Once it's over you knew all was in peace but the bad guy always returned in the end.
Classic series is basically a never ending cycle that kinda gave it that charm. Then X series came forth showing the end of the Blue Bomber and his nemesis Wily but with something different. We knew the old era was gone, just not sure how really. Anyway they were replaced by Light and Wily's creations X and Zero in a period of hunting Mavericks all up till X5 ((canon ending cause X6 was just plot rape)). So technically speaking, X series was LOOONG completed in terms of storyline, it's just that Capcom wanted to milk it off more with more games ((Command mission was the ONLY good one out of the rest IMO)) so it never seemed like it. We know about Zero series, so skipping to ZX. . . well I CAN'T say it isn't unpopular cause it's basically like an improvement of difficulty over the past formulas of X and Zero series, but that's just an assumption I gathered from lurking in countless forums and listening to HideofBeast and it got some positive reception last I checked. SO I would assume it has a better chance of getting ZX3 and maybe ending there, but IDK.
=========
well hopefully its fake (which it probably is)
or mega man really is dead
Course it's fake, that's just a rumor to cause more drama. Look at Capcom's twitter page regarding it. . .
