Did he apologize?
Heard the dealers room booth wasn't set up on Saturday. Did they sell anything on Sunday?

I almost feel bad for Inafune. I consider him more of a bumbling idiot with dreams too big for his resources than a con man. He didn't even create the idea that he created Mega Man. That was a misconception. Although he hasn't done enough to dispell this idea.
Meanwhile this is the crowd for Bloodstained panel at AX. Interest has increased after the demo's release.

>>343777504
People are giving Iga cakes. I imagine Inafune would only get literal shit in boxes.
>>343776778
they stopped giving a shit when the game was still in the making
at least they are dedicated about not giving a shit all the way through
I'm glad this happened to Inafune, and I don't feel sorry for him. He totally deserves this, but even after this I feel it won't be a wakeup call for him, and he'll try to go right back to what he usually does. Only now he can't get away with it in the US.
>>343775941
Was it delayed?
>>343777875
He's shown himself to be a really shitty manager. He is the CEO of Comcept and either created most of the bad decisions, or hired the people that did.
>>343777875
I imagine that Inafune will learn nothing, but still has dreams of being the CEO of a new Capcom. He seems really ambitious. But he will just rely on Chinese money from now on. But how long can that last?
Crowd sourcing is great because it really shows us who were frauds and who was great. Before they had these whole companies and tons of talent. Now they're on their own. So some no name guy comes along and makes a great game, and then this supposed father of some big series and it's a disaster.
>>343777504
>He didn't even create the idea that he created Mega Man.
hmm
>>343778801
>meme image
That's a fake. He never said that.
>>343778580
>But he will just rely on Chinese money from now on.
SNK seems to be getting on just fine for now, and it actually pulled them out of a disadvantageous spot. But SNK are experienced game developers, not just a bunch of whack ideas guys. Inafune is an idiotic ideas guy who doesn't seem to understand the position he's in. His role has generally been a producer and the games he did work on have been really shitty. Chinese will put their foot up his ass and that's funny because it's the chinks.
>>343778801
>hmm
Kill yourself.
>>343777504
It's like looking at an international family reunion. Over half of them look related.
>>343779203
Inafune's spin is that as the illustrator he fleshed out the character. But there's some obvious problems with it:
1. The design is simple as hell. The illustrations add nothing to it.
2. Kitamura and others likely sketched out Mega Man in rough.
3. Kitamura never mentions Inafune once in the interview, implying he had a very limited role in MM1-2. You'd think that the guy who did "half the job of creating" would get mentioned. He mentions Matshushima instead.
3. The idea of giving the illustrator half the credit for a character creation is unique only to Mega Man. I don't see anyone saying that the illustrators for the early Mario games, or Zelda should get half the credit for creating the characters. It looks like Inafune's fans working backwards from the idea that he's the creator and trying to find something to prove that.
>>343778897
>That's a fake. He never said that.
https://youtube.com/watch?v=R3rkb-zifUQ
It wasn't for MN9, but you bet your ass he said it
>>343779856
I want a Japanese speaker to double check that.
>>343779856
Confirmed. Hell, it wasn't even in Japanese, he straight up says it in English, "Megaman creator"
>>343780064
Why? He says it in English, idiot.
>>343775941
>>343776060
It's better than nothing
>>343780098
>>343780206
>>343780064
He says a Japanese phrase. You're mis-hearing it as "mega man creator" The translator got it wrong. He's saying he's the Mega man producer.
>>343777504
I went to that panel, and then got a couple game cover autographs
Unfortunately, he didn't really give much info on the game during the panel.
>>343780386
If I got a chance to meet him, I would ask him what the hell happened to Tohu Hagihara. Guy makes Rondo, and half of Symphony then just vanishes.
>>343780379
>Official Capcom trailer with official translation
>"the translator got it wrong because I say so! e-even though I don't know Japanese I know Inafune would never lie!"
Tell me, what do you get out of defending Inafune?
>>343780379
Let me get this straight. You're wrong, but let me try and understand your logic.
A translator got a phrase wrong, and it went straight through quality control, into an official advertising material. It was approved with that mistake left in.
Is that about right?
>>343780379
I'm gonna spell it for you.
He says,
>"メガマンクリエターの稲船です。"
Since you claim to know what he's saying, it's clear you can translate this without going to googl translate. Then again, it's written in kana aside from his name so it shouldn't even require N5 level.

>Bloodstained has the same artist and staff as MN9
>people somehow think it will be better
>>343781968
Really? They had parallel development where they worked on one game a day the other the next, or were they two different teams in the same company?
>>343780602
He doesn't know ether. Right before bloodstained was announced, Iga appeared on the dev's play series where he was interviewed while someone was playing SotN.
He said he doesn't know what most of the team that made SotN was up to these days.
Pretty interesting interview overall. Iga was surprised to find out that the Materialization Cube was translated as The Cube of Zoe.
>>343781968
but the demo was already better than MN9
>>343782246
MN9 was basically done in 2015. There was a build posted from that time and the game is functional to completion, just a little buggy (more than normal). Ini-Creates are a kind of small company, so they can't handle a million productions at once anyways.
I know Yuji Natsume is the main artist for both games. No clue who's directing it or designing it.
>>343781968
I do wonder why that happened. Why I'm not saying that bloodstained will flop, given that by the time the KS was announced people had already turned on mighty. No 9 .
Maybe it's just that people don't learn.
>>343782271
>Iga was surprised to find out that the Materialization Cube was translated as The Cube of Zoe.
Jeremy Balustein did the localization. He flat out just made shit up for item and enemy names. That really annoys me. I can understand and even defend his dialogue choices. Most of it is pretty good. But the changes to items is indefensible and pointless.
You know Necklass of J? It's just a necklass. And he added Lord of the rings references for no reason.
>>343782695
>Jeremy Balustein
That name sounds familiar. Didn't he have something to do with another major game?
>>343782695
>He flat out just made shit up for item and enemy names.
Zoe is his daughter's name. In one interview he confessed that he did it to get his daughter's name into the game.
>>343777504
All of them are fat
>>343782879
I think I heard that name in Drawn to Life, not sure though.
>>343781450
Not him, but to be fair, nips use the word "creator" a lot to mean "developer/person who worked on something" and not "the one person who actually created the thing."
Knowing Inafune, he probably took advantage of the confusion to avoid making things clear, but there's a slight chance it was a genuine translation mistake.
>>343782879
He did the localization for Metal Gear Solid, and Silent HIll 2.
>>343782930
And the J is in reference to another family memeber. I think his son.
>>343782879
Was he the Chrono Trigger guy or was that someone else?
>>343783052
I just looked him up. He was a translator on MGS1.
>>343781968
>>343782246
Inti didn't have anything to do with the actual development with Mn9, they only did illustrations. That's why the character portraits in game look 100x better than the actual models. Same goes for Shantae, they also did artwork for that.
>>343783256
>Inti didn't have anything to do with the actual development with Mn9, they only did illustrations.
MN9 is a joint venture of Ini-Creates and Comcept. The credits list Comcept people and then Ini-Creates people. Comcept is listed under "Staff" and Ini-Creates under "Development". So you are just lying or talking out of your ass.

Inti developed it you idiot. They got fucked because the game had to run on everything. It looks like shit thanks to crappy hardware like the O3DS.
>>343775849
>Keiji Inafune returns to #AX2016! He will be a part of a panel with CEO of Inti Creates (developer of various Mega Man games, as well as Mighty No. 9), where they will discuss "Creating New Games With a Retro Flair."
>>343783862
>It looks like shit thanks to crappy hardware like the O3DS.
And the greatest irony: the 3DS version is nowhere to be seen. It may very well end up being cancelled. They have to remake the whole game in a new engine since UE3 can't work on it.
>>343775941
Holy shit, that's just sad.
>>343783862
the 3DS version isn't even released and probably won't at this rate
and fuck, there's 3DS games that are more visually appealing than MN9
>>343782638
Because they are like Platinum, they can make good or bad games but it depends mostly on who is directing them, if the director is shit we get shit games if he is competent we get good games
>>343777664
>eating food given by fans, ever
>>343775941
So wait, did they rent the room and then just never set it up? That's a waste of money.
>>343777664
That face looks like he poisoned the cake.
You can have the better programmers, coders, illustrators, 3D modellers, etc. But, if the game concept itself is flawed, the team isn't properly guided and the manager is unable to manage the budget, the project will end in disaster.
Bloodstained may have the same developers as MN9, but unlike Inafune, Igarashi knows what he's doing.
At the very worst the game will be a serviceable SOTN-style Castlevania, even if it doesn't put the entire world on fire.
>>343783170
That was Woolsey. He's endearing but for the wrong reasons.

By the way, does anyone remember the name of that site where people sold horrible fetish shit like shit cookies and used underwear?
Because being able to link to that would be a good warning against eating rando food.
It's been like a decade since someone brought it up to me, so maybe it doesn't exist anymore.

Uh, most versions have "issues". WiiU version runs at a whopping 20fps most of the time. this is like early ps1.
>>343786747
I was just using it to make fun of their claim for 3DS efficiency when they can't even get it to run on another supposedly more powerful Nintendo hardware is all. I know PC version is the only one that can run with any efficacy at all.

I remember before I deployed to Iraq they'd give us this orientation on their local culture, like if you were offered food it's recommnded you should eat it or they get offended/insulted. I was like, fuck that, it might be a terrorist in disguise who poisoned it. I'm glad the only times I went outside the wire was transporting between FOBs, though.

I've heard of no soldier being poisoned like that. Apparently it's taboo or something. But I have heard of some Islamic State fighters being poisoned with tea.

>>343781450
My money's on this honestly, the Japanese language can be remarkably vague sometimes and some people take advantage of that

>メガマンクリエーターの稲船です
>megaman kurieta no inafune desu

>>343787347
Nothing.
And that's the problem: it doesn't do anything that previous Megaman titles didn't already do better.
The promised transformations being removed from the finished game don't help things.
>>343787934
It's not vague at all. I even transliterated exactly what he said. Look for my post because I hate spoonfeeding.
>>343787941
Inti made Mega Man 9 and 10, and those were great. I blame this fully on the conman.
So no one bothered to report on what did Con Man even said yesterday or if there was any damage control?How the Mighty have fallen
>>343788402
>Inti made Mega Man 9 and 10,
Ini worked on those games, but didn't make them by themselves. The key staff, like directors and designers were all Capcom people.
>>343787347
Level design is shit and not interesting There's also a few parts that are just annoying and tedious instead of fun, especially the bosses.

Console versions run at 30fps. Not sure about ps4/Xbone. WiiU version runs at 20fps, with dips, and occasionally crashes.
PC version erases saves.
These are MAJOR technical issues which hurt the game.
As for the game itself, it is boring and forgettable. Reminds me of later X series games.
