Mystery Capcom Project #1 = Mega Man 9?
BY Chris Holzworth Jun. 13th, 2008 More on:

Like the triumphant return of Indiana Jones, Capcom’s original Blue Bomber may be suiting up (powering up?) for his first adventure in over ten years. According to Australia’s Classification Database (essentially their equivalent to North America’s ESRB), Capcom — or more specifically Australian distributor Red Ant — applied today for classification of Mega Man 9. The classification report makes mention of the game’s version being “original” as well as “multi platform”.

Could this be one of the two previously reported Capcom mystery games set to show at E3? Only time will tell. Or some serious investigative journalism. Or bribery. Whatever dirty tricks utilized, I’m sure rabid Mega Man fanboys will unearth every detail possible between now and July, when E3 kicks off.

Now if only that other mystery title could be a new Breath of Fire

      Mike, aka the guy with the Mega Man tattoo, should be pleased.

      I doubt they’ll have hands on there but if they do I’m going to be tearing people limb from limb to get at it.

      side-scrolling 3-D (2.5-D?) is the only way to go, baby. I’ve been hooked on that ever since the PSP remake of X and New Super Mario Bros.

      Yeah, both Mega Man games on PSP rocked! Some games only feel right that way. I was surprised Metroid Prime was so great, but none of the 3D Mega Man games or Castlevania games really impressed me. This is great news to me!!

      Oh man, this has got my MegaMan-dar all a-twitter. I can’t wait, I just hope that they don’t do anything dumb. Take it back to it’s roots, make it 8-bit if you have to, just don’t make it another MM8… that was a sad departure of the norm.
