Mighty No. 9 (spiritual successor to Mega Man)
OoOo Pretty: here is the first early footage of Mighty No. 9, the spiritual successor to Mega Man. It's a "super-short, super-rough engine test" on the Unreal engine, and the final product may end up looking rather different according to today's Kickstarter update.

IGN preview looks really promising. Looking forward to this game (which I backed).

Are they still being sued by Capcom or is that settled?

i thought there was never a lawsuit, just people speculating there might be one eventually.

This reminds me, I had an awesome idea for a game with two electrician brothers who are tasked with rescuing an empress from a giant lizard.

From the PlayStation Blog :
Mighty No. 9: Retail Details, Cross-Buy, Pre-order for Retro Hero Mode
+ Posted by Pete Brolly on Jun 03, 2015 // Senior Global Brand Manager, Deep Silver
Hello again PlayStation fans!
We’re back again with a few more Mighty No. 9 details that we know that gamers will be excited to hear. For those of you who are perhaps new to whole Mighty No. 9 discussion, come in, sit down, make yourself comfortable and allow our sparkly new Mighty No. 9 “Beat Them at Their Own Game” gameplay trailer get you up to speed — in glorious 60fps, no less!
<iframe width="853" height="480" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Nlg-SPCvVwU?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
So, on to the news! We saw that, let’s just say, more than a few of you have asked about this, so it gives us great pleasure to announce that Mighty No. 9 will support Cross-Buy across PS4, PS3 and PS Vita. What’s cooler than that? Well, how about the fact that Cross-Buy will be available on both the digital versions and the PS4 retail version.
We also have a few more details on the PS4 retail version – in this edition you’ll not only receive the “Ray” DLC which grants you access to the Abandoned Lab stage, a boss battle against new bad-guy Ray, and the ability to then play through the entire game as Ray herself, but we’re also packing in a double-sided poster as well as “The Art of Mighty No. 9”: an art booklet which showcases the sublime artworks and concept arts from our friends at comcept and Inti Creates.
Finally we also wanted to drop some information on a special goody for those that choose to pre-order the title: we’ll be giving you the “Retro Hero Mode”: where Beck will don a retro-inspired suit, complete with 8-bit style pew-pew sound effects and direct access to a rock hard insta-death mode, where any single hit will result in Beck’s destruction. Not for the faint of heart!
While the Retro Hero Mode with the Retro Beck character model & the access to the insane difficulty mode will be the pre-order bonus, the insta-death mode is not exclusive to only those who pre-order: the core game will also contain a slightly different one-hit death mode – one which you’ll be able to unlock by completing a specific, but more on that later!
Last announcement of the day is an extremely limited Collector’s Edition only for North America. The Mighty No. 9: Signature Edition will include the Launch Edition of the PS4 game as well as an individually numbered 6.5” figurine of Beck complete with 14 points of articulation and three interchangeable faceplates. Packaging on this version will prominently feature a metallic foil signature from legendary creator Keiji Inafune across the front. Oh, and all of that for only $59.99!
That’s all for now — stay tuned for more updates on Mighty No. 9!

Amazon had this for $29.99 so I went ahead and snatched a pre-order. Pretty excited for this one.

Isn't 29.99 just the retail price?
Is the LE a store exclusive?

All I know is if we Kickstarters don't get the "Ray" DLC, I'll be Mighty pissed.
Love that box art!

Officially delayed till Q1 2016. Audible sigh, although that's not even close to being a surprise.

Actually, I am kind of surprised. Once they started showing the sweet box-art and CE content, I figured we'd be getting the game on-time. Bummer.

Re: Mighty No. 9 (spiritual successor to Mega Man)
Comcept was reportedly reluctant to confirm the rumors of a delay until after the Red Ash Kickstarter had ended. They're pointing to online issues as the reason for the delay, sticking to the story that the meat of the game has been finished for quite a while now.

Re: Mighty No. 9 (spiritual successor to Mega Man)
Online delays are so commonplace. It's frustrating to me since this is the sort of game 95% of players will never play online. Oh well, what can you do? Just another (twice) delayed Kickstarter game. I don't know why I'm surprised. Of the 9-10 games I've backed, only Quiplash by Jackbox came out in the anticipated window. Harmonix just delayed Amplitude again as well.

That Red Ash Kickstarter... man that had people lose faith in the company quickly, and this delay doesn't help.
