Inafune doesn't know Mega Man 9's secret, picks WayForward t' make Mega Man
A portion a a TMMN interview with Mr. Inafune...
TMMN: We know ye be sort a limited in what ye can talk about in terms a yer work with Capcom, but do ye know what the last secret a Mega Man 9 be, 'n if ye do, could ye tell us?
KI: Unfortunately, I don’t know exactly what what that be. Even if I did, I wouldn’t be able t' talk about it because it be during me time at Capcom, but honestly I do not know what ye be talking about.
TMMN: While Capcom may have issues with the “salaryman problem”, would ye be opposed t' Capcom giving the Mega Man intellectual property t' an outside team with a good track record, like WayForward?
KI: Whether ye choose t' take yer IP 'n give it t' an outsourced developer or not, it really comes down t' the company, the publisher’s, the IP owner’s strategy. Now there be lots a different ways t' think about production 'n development, but I would hope that if they be considering outsourcing Mega Man t' another developer, like WayForward, I hope that they would pursue proper due diligence, 'n find out during the due diligence first 'n foremost if the love be there or not, because ye’ll know if the team be just doing it for money, or if they be doing it if they love it 'n ye will be able t' tell in the final product.
