Well, damn.

MMU is pretty much finished, I guess, so maybe that'll be a nice swan song from him and loveletter to classic MM as a whole.  But Legends 3?  I was really, really looking forward to that, afaik it's nowhere near complete if even much into development at all, and also afaik Inafune held that series closer to his heart than anything else.  So... well, damn.

If they can make something as nice as MM9 or 10 without him, though, maybe it won't be so bad.  If MML3 or the next classic-style MM after U ends up being at least "good", I'll have hope yet.

Japan held robot master design contests or something along those lines. On MM6, our NA box art had Knightman and Windman on it. Which are the only robot master designs that were accepted and came from North America.

I thought he designed all of the original 6.  Dunno about Time or Oil, and I didn't know he designed Wood either... I thought from 2 onward they were all more or less modified versions of contest-winners they'd hold in Japan, with the exception of 6 which had a Nintendo Power contest from which was produced Wind and Knight.

Don't forget Bond Man. Through, he was never really in the games.
I forgot about Time Man and Oil Man, althrough, they aren't very memoriable to me.
Time Man sounds like an old mad lunch lady, who always talks about time.

In the complete works book he says "Cutman and Gutsman were already done by the time I arrived" or something.

Damn. Just damn. This is probably going to be a seriously big blow for Megaman.

I hope not though.....

Uh... If you read that interview, you would understand why and what Inafune is doing. I support him and hope he does bring change to the video game industry, or at least help kick it off more.

Maybe this is a good thing, he makes all these games like Resident Evil, Dead Rising and others, not just Mega Man.
He must be pretty tired after all the work, frustration, success, fame and other stuff he has to go through.

And besides, it's not like he's not gonna have anymore influence in said titles anymore.
 Also, I hear the Mega Man series is in good hands, so I have no worries about anything.
