Capcom: Mega Man 9 on WiiWare only
Novakaine \| 9:26 PM on 06.30.2008	12 comments

Ars Technica just got an e-mail from Capcom in response to their article asserting MM9 would come out for WiiWare, XBLA, and PSN.

"Capcom pinged us to let us know that the game is currently slated "for WiiWare only" and that the information data indicating otherwise in the E3 roster was a mistake on its part."

Now, it's worth nothing the "currently" in their statement, especially considering Capcom has an extensive history of declaring a game to be exclusive on a Nintendo system only to roll out a port on another console a year later. I definitely wouldn't be surprised if MM9 is only a timed exclusive; if it's even an exclusive at all.

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

I was hoping MM9 would be something capcom put so much detail and effort into like Street Fighter II HD, but no...

I personally have no trouble with this, as I have no intention of buying it. Had it been redone graphically in the style of 7 or 8 I'd be all over it, but as much of a fan as I am, I did not want another retro title.

That seems rather reasonable as it uses graphics reminiscent of an early Nintendo console.

Perhaps spacecat read from an incorrect document? Perhaps he was foiled by a counter operative . . .

Capcom statement overrules internet speculation and assumptions.

.....what no Michi rant?

would've thought he'd post this by now with a quick response.

@ SHIN ONI: Ha, I just posted a link to this blog post in Michiyo's "So Mega Man 9 is multiplatform after all" article. XD

Anyway, way back in 2006 Keiji Inafune said he was betting the Mega Man horse on the Wii, so this is consistent, if anything.
