Let's be honest, the spiritual successor to Megaman has been out for awhile now:
I just... can't help but laugh at this and apparently everything Inafune touches thesedays. I'm flabbergasted that I made this thread in 2013. I guess I should remind myself and others that Inafune was basically a character designer and nothing else on some of the original Megaman's. I guess the guy was doing more behind the scenes and became a quality producer on PSX/PS2 era games that you could trust, but I'm starting to clearly not see him in the same light as Shinji Mikami or Kamiya at all, who are real game designers and seem to hold projects together better, know what they're doing, or... something.
It just really feels like Inafune's credits are perhaps a bit overblown in retrospect. Hate to rag on the guy since classic Capcom is my comfort zone and I'd argue I'm one of the biggest Megaman fans on the boards, but yeah.
