....Not excited about a handheld port being a stretch goal. Perhaps if the game is proven to be successful, then we can talk. I really don't see the purpose right now. 4 platforms is enough for a new game. That is just asking for trouble IMO....

The 3DS is the #1 selling platform in both North America and Japan, and has been for a while now. It seems to me like not doing it is asking for trouble.

There's a reason why they saved it for late in the campaign and priced it so high . . .

Even if they don't make the goal, they can still announce a 3DS version as a "thank you" for all the support, claim they received extra funding, found cost savings, etc. The stretch goals are designed to maximize contributions, not serve as a binding limitation on future platforms or as a reliable indicator of what Feature X costs. A 3DS version at the end of the rainbow is a helluva lot more likely to generate revenue than a Wii U version or a documentary.

Could there be a reason to why he must be so blue?

Yep, I'm sure that was a big part of their thinking. Just responding to the notion that it was somehow pointless or a bad idea.

I voted for F, but I was my second choice.

Well-done!

[Mpl90]

It's over 2,800,000 now, and this just by counting KickStarter funds, without the total amount from Pay Pal.

 

[Mr. Smiley]

Just one more 100,000 and both my Mega Man and Mega Man X needs will be filled.

3 more days gogogo

 

[jett]

I say meh to all of those. Should've brought back this design from MML3:

I understand your pain. Trust me, I do. But Trigger wants us to move on and let Beck lead us to the future.

 

[KojiKnight]

She failed the vote in MML3, why would she succeed in MN9?

Roll-call or bust! Also wow 2.8mil is pretty damn good with 3 days left.

(edit) giving it a second look over, I'd also accept design E. She seems to have more of an attitude (in a good way)... but it will always be Roll-call first for me.

 

[Ravek]

To those who care and want to play a hypothetical game: if money wasn't an issue how much money would you contribute?

Personally, I would give $9999. Why not the 10k? Because I'm a picky eater and wouldn't want to be disrespectful.

If money wasn't an issue I would get one of each of the limited tiers along with the physical disc and both of the USB sticks. As it is, I'm just sitting at the HC art book right now.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

Wow, at the rate this Kickstarter is going, handheld versions seems like a foregone conclusion. Was it like 100k in the past 12 hours? And we're still 24 hours from the 2 days countdown. Hype!

 

[RM8]

Guiiise, I want to remove my pledge.

So I can pledge via PayPal It makes absolutely no difference, right? Also, by pledging exactly $51 am I automatically getting my digital and physical version, right?

 

[todd360]

I'm planning on upping my pledge from $5 to $20 or $60 on the last day. I need dat ps4 version.

 

[Busaiku]

Just about $15,000 away from $2.9 million.
We're getting that Intro Stage in like an hour!

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

I say meh to all of those. Should've brought back this design from MML3:

I take back anything bad I may have ever said about you

 

[Greenzxy]

Man those MegaMan Legend designs were so good. I'm just realizing this too.

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

Did a quick colorization of Call version E:

Any news on the paypal numbers?

I also voted for I, sad to see not many seemed to do the same, but F was my second favorite so I guess I wont be too badly disappointed.

 

[CriterionDog]

Do you guys think it will reach the ps4/xbox one stretch goals? These kickstarters seem to always end in a spike.

 

[jello44]

Any news on the paypal numbers?

Latest is the $54,395 at 7PST last night.

Currently at $2,837,356 on Kickstarter.

We're looking at $2,891,751 total.

I'm guessing there is more paypal money that hasn't been updated so probably close to the next stretch goal, if it hasn't been reached already. (They haven;t announced it has so I'm guessing not just yet.)

Do you guys think it will reach the ps4/xbox one stretch goals? These kickstarters seem to always end in a spike.

Even if it doesn't, which I think it will, given the spikes they get the last few days, I would expect it to be there regardless if they reach it or not.

 

[chugen]

PAYPAL TOTAL: $71,356

INTRO! wooooh

just a little more =)

 

[jello44]

Hah.

Figures as soon as I post the new total rolls in.

One more hidden stretch goal, hope that is revealed soon.

Spoiler

Hoping for single player Call mode

 

[TastyOreoFriend]

All I want is for them to make it to the PS4 goal. That way making it to the Vita/3DS goal won't matter as much because I can just remoteplay it then lol

 

[Busaiku]

I wonder how far it can go tomorrow.
I think $3.1 million is definitely doable.

 

[KojiKnight]

But but but... I want 3DS version!

 

[InfiniteNine]

Made this coloring because I don't get the association with Panty when the eye shape, hair dual colors, and head shape all resemble Stocking more.

 

[KoopaTheCasual]

But but but... I want 3DS version!

We might just reach there at this rate. Faith!

 

[Busaiku]

But but but... I want 3DS version!

I'd say it's pretty likely at this rate.
It's over $130k today, I definitely think $200,000 is possible tomorrow, and I expect the last 2 days to be crazy.

 

[TastyOreoFriend]

I'm praying with you for a handheld version, but I don't wanna get my hopes up for nothing if it doesn't make it

I really hope so

 

[Busaiku]

I really hope so

If it didn't make $3.5 million when it's this far along through today, that'd definitely be a first for a successful Kickstarter.

 

[InfiniteNine]

Hoping it hits that PS4 version. :9

Thats good to know. This is the first time I've ever put money into any kickstarter project.

[CriterionDog]

Oh my god, we might get a 3DS/Vita version...So close!! : D

 

[todd360]

Man those MegaMan Legend designs were so good. I'm just realizing this too.

Lets just pretend like mega man legends 3 never existed. It hurts to much to think about what could have been. Its a crime we never even got to play the paid demo.

 

[Crimson_Gold]

But I wanted Beck's Protoman to be playable

 

[L.O.R.D]

SONY and Nintendo should help some, at least for the 3DS and Vita

 

[RM8]

3DS version just has to happen. 3DS will be in 2015 what DS was in 2010, basically an active system with a pretty big user base that really digs classic side scrollers.

Nah everyones gonna be busy. Over 600 Pokemon to catch takes a lot of time brah. Lol

 

[ArtHands]

You can't customize the reward right? I just want the physical art book and the game but I do not want to pledge $120 there for so many other unnecessary stuffs ..

They're not offering a la carte add-ons so you have to pay.

 

[Fireblend]

Woohoo intro goal reached! Well, even if the nextgen/portable stretch goals are reached I'm thinking I'll go for a Steam copy of the game (and maybe double dip for 3DS later) so I'll be set as soon as we get to the next stretch goal we're definitely reaching the ng consoles goal though. Who has the nay sayers quotes/screenshots ready for the wall of shame?

You'd have to find a MIGHTY big wall....

 

[shink]

Okay I upped my pledge. I want that Vita version!

 

[Busaiku]

We can get started now.

I fear $900,000 is just too much. I don't think it will make it.

I hope I'm wrong though.

I suspect it won't reach the $2,5m stretch goal, so I might aswell back out from this project. I would rather play this game on consoles and I am trying to be very cautious to not double dip lately.

Yikes. Yeah, I don't see that happening.

will not support because he make the last stretch goal the Consoles ver.

And it's impossible to reach 2.5 millon !!!

It's only on $493,111 now, never going to get to play this.

My projections:

$1.1mil (+300k) today
$1.3mil (+200k) tomorrow
+25k-40k everyday until day 28
+80-90k last 2 days

Ending up with around $2.3mil total.

I don't think 2.3m is possible. If it goes anywhere near that then a lot more people will join in for the console versions. It will either end up well below 2m, which is highly unlikely, or it will push to above 2.5m.

I think the $2.5M stretch goal for console versions is a big time stretch at this point. Fortunately it'll be on Mac, Linux, and Windows.

I'm calling it now. It will reach 2.750 "Beck and Call online co-op challenge mode". The rest won't happen. Things are slowing down more and more everyday. There will be a surge at the end sure but not enough to reach 2.9. I hope I'm wrong.
