Keiji Inafune Sorry About Mega Man Legends 3 Cancellation

Cancellations are always sad to hear, especially when some games are looking really good. Recently, Capcom had cancelled Mega Man Legends 3. What's worse to hear was that there was a Prototype set to release for players to test the game out, via the Nintendo eShop channel, which should have been already released, but wasn't.

Keiji Inafune used to work at Capcom and was the former head-hancho behind this project. He has brought us recent titles like Dead Rising and Lost Planet. He had also worked on past titles over the years like Resident Evil 2, Onimusha, and the game franchise that made him well known, Mega Man. Before leaving Capcom, he actually had been working on Mega Man Universe and as stated just above, Mega Man Legends 3.

After the word of the game's cancellation made word around the game industry and many fans being disappointed, here's what Mr. Inafune had to say on his blog to his former team:

Today's cancellation decision is out of my control, but there's something I'd like to tell the staff: 'I'm sorry.'

It's a real shame. I mean, I was a fan of the original Mega Man Legends when it was released on the PS1 back in the day. To think that we would've finally gotten a new sequel after all these years and looking good in its videos that were released - it would've been awesome to hear fans "Squee". Who knows, maybe, maybe not - some things can't disappear entirely in my opinion.
