Some people are talking about boycotting Capcom over this, but I think I'll be fine with just not buying the inevitable "Megaman 11: You Like This Because It Looks Retro, Right? RIGHT?!"

Of course, after that, who knows if we'll see another Megaman game for years, if not ever.

Yeah the big problem is that boycotts are sort of a blunt force thing. Capcom probably wouldn't get the right message. They'd probably come to the conclusion that their games aren't Western enough or something stupid like that.

Same thing with people boycotting Nintendo over them not bringing the big Wii RPGs over: That's EXACTLY why they aren't coming! No one buys "Hardcore" Wii games and it would just further backup that statement! (Also the fact that without these games Nintendo basically has one game coming out this year)

There's also the fact that Internet game "boycotts" are never that. Too few people will actually follow through with them because, let's face it--gamers are addicts in a double-edged sword kind of way. They're passionate, but if they see something they like they can't give it up.

Well, at least there's the used market as an out.

Like Willy down there, I pictured this happening in the back of my head, but I'm pretty annoyed that it's happening now that I was finally starting to like how the game was shaping up, crappy heroine choice aside. This and Sonic Generations were pretty much the only reasons I was going to grab a 3DS. Maybe Kid Icarus.

"Megaman 11: You Like This Because It Looks Retro, Right? RIGHT?!"
Ugh, if they pull that shit again... well, I didn't buy Mega Man 10, either.

Yeah, I was feeling kind of stupid for wanting a 3DS only for one game (or rather, a "demo" of one game), but it looks like I won't have to worry about that for a while.

By then it'll be around the time for the traditional first hardware revision anyway.
