Does that make yacht club games John the Baptist?
Possibly. Could be $25 or something. Not much more. Since it'll be on Steam though, it'll almost certainly be on sale at some point for $5. Everyone wins.

I think this is the first video game I've backed on Kickstarter that doesn't look like an NES game.

Any other backer kinda bummed that we're not going to see this game for almost another 2 years? It's kinda bittersweet. The existence of this project makes me really happy... but having to wait 2 years
Not really. How else could this have gone down? We also don't know when in 2015 it will launch, so it could be more like 18 months.

Probably. That seems like a reasonable price. Maybe 40, but I think that's a stretch.
I'm sure no game you've backed looks like a NES game. Unless you have only backed Shovel Knight which kind of looks like an actual NES game.

it doesn't mean much that it's on PSN, they might release it for PS4 if they see it viable(which I feel they probably will)
At least it's on PC and Wii U, I'm so getting both.

There are two mystery stretch goals so 3DS, Vita, PS4 and XB1 are still a possibility.
The way I see it:
AVGN Movie --> Double Fine Adventure --> Shovel Knight --> Mighty No. 9
Funny part is Mighty No. 9 might make it out before the AVGN movie is finally edited and ready to release.

Wish they gave us more info on the beta access. I want to go for the $99 pledge for the beta but I want to know how early we'd get it..

damn What I miss since the 900K funding
How sweet of Capcom UK defending Capcom JPN
This is perfect
With all my hype for this coming up generation, none of the next gen trailers and gameplay impressions has filled me with the same level of joy as Mighty No9's KS and support. And the game is still in preproduction.

It took Keiji Inafune almost 2 days to raise 1 million dollars!
This is perfect
God, already one million?! How awesome is that?! And about the consoles stretch goal...

Nope, you can contribute even after it's met its goal. We need to go for those Stretch Goals!
Simply pledge as normal.
Edit: It seems you've already discovered the answer for yourself.

Oh?
Here are the video games I've backed.

Tiny Barbarian has more color depth than NES graphics, but eh, the point still stands.
You should upgrade to SNES looking games and back Ghost Song
Ghost song didn't really appeal to me from what I saw of it.

So I finally got around to watching the kickstarter video, it was perfection. I will pledge as much money as I can to this project.
Yeah, the Kickstarter video was very sincere/genuine. After watching that if anyone is a fan of Mega Man, or video games in general, I'd find it hard to believe that they wouldn't contribute to the cause. There seems to be a lot of passion behind the project too.
I have full confidence that Mighty No. 9 is going to be something truly special.

I wonder about that, from the FAQs:
Isn’t $900K a little cheap for the game you are promising?
Good question! Let us guess—you’ve worked in the game industry?
So, no, this is not a case where the initial goal is set irresponsibly low, risking everything in the hopes that the Kickstarter campaign will pay off over expectations and get us where we secretly, actually need to be financially. We do understand that concern, though, and kept it in mind when carefully setting our initial funding goal. More money over the initial goal would be wonderful—don’t get us wrong!
By the way—if you have some spare time, you mind talking to any folks you might happen to see ask the next question?
Seems they do expect to invest a bit, it just isn't clear how much is necessary if all stretch goals are met.
Your presence reminds me their needs to be a Not Bass.
Also Not Bass should be playable if we get enough money.
He shall be called Slash.
Pretty sure the Bass counterpart is going to be something amazing like Carpe and his side kick Diem
Please.

Game development is a surprisingly long process. We almost never hear about games this early on.

While this is obviously a mock-up, I kind of laughed at how unplayable that screen would be.
I doubt it. They mentioned on the FAQ they're considering into their calculations having to pitch in from their own funds, no matter how much the project's backers pledge to it. There's definitely an element of risk to the whole thing, even if we reach the 2.5mil mark. They seem to be really into managing and tracking their expenses though, and I really hope they end up with enough profit to show the industry how a kickstarter project can be successful both for the creators and for the backers. I don't think we've seen many that demonstrate that principle yet.
So it looks good.
Nah, But they are letting people design bad guys later so I will be trying my hand at that.
I already have ideas I am working on.
Slash.
And Evil doctor whose name is a pun related To Dr.Dre or Timberland.
And Boss named Metal Fingers.

For 10 years my user name on the internet for everything gaming related has been Bass from the Mega Man franchise. The death of the MM franchise has been brutal to me and I'm not sure how I'd feel whenever we get Not Bass in the Mighty No 9 franchise.
That's hard mode.

But Slash was already a Megaman villain
I will name him something else. Hmm "Yes", would be weird.
Well I will come up with some more concepts and you all can name him how about that?
Bass related? Slash already used? Dude, it's so obvious: call him Duff.
(I'm aware of Duff McWhalen, but fuck Duff McWhalen)

Do you know the source?
He's right!
I wouldn't want to commit to a physical box until I know for sure what platforms its is coming to. From the KS, it seems like the physical box is only for the PC version.
