Title: Mega Man Powered Up
Post by: Artimus on May 01, 2007, 03:25:49 PM
Does anyone have this? It looks quite good. I'll never understand why they didn't do it for DS (other than it being Capcom). It would've sold so much better.
ETA: Can someone move this to Other Systems?

Mega Man is currently under investigation and so under Japanese law, he can't release news about future games or release games on systems.
Appearently, he's powered up from 'roids.
Sad really.

I thought he was under arrest for killing 72 'men?

And he tore their hearts out and drank their blood to absorb their "power".

I "acquired" a copy of it. It's an okay game, the updated levels were really nice but the chibi characters were even to much for me. There is no doubt in my mind that the game would have sold 10x better on the DS then on the PSP. I can't understand why Capcom shows more support to the PSP then the DS.
If you own a PSP and can deal with sickly cute chibi characters then the game is worth a rental at least. I wouldn't say its worth buying unless you can find it in the $20 bin.

Capcom supports PSP cuz there's little competition and it's an easy way to train rookie devs by making them work on ports.

Probably because Capcom doesn't know how to be innovative. With the PSP they don't have to change, just can just shovel the same games out without really giving a crap.

Not like they can't do that with the DS.

The answer is because Capcom is run by idiots who dont know how to run a business, plus they seem to have a fear of money. Even though the DS has completly dominated over the PSP and is a system that is much cheaper to develop for they continue to give the PSP more support then the DS.
Sega and Capcom are the videogame equivalent to Dumb and Dumber, but with each company switching between the role of who's dumber every couple months.
