Why Does Everyone Hate the Mighty No. 9 Trailer?

The new Mighty No. 9 trailer doesn't inspire much hope for the state of the game. Backers are unhappy with the latest trailer and here's why...

TwoForce3523d ago

And it's Cringeworthy. Ugh.

Timesplitter143523d ago

By far its biggest crime is the guy speaking

Null19803523d ago

This game took a mighty #2 right on top of everyone's hopes and expectations. Should have just called it that... Mighty No. 2.

Sciurus_vulgaris3523d ago

If i wasn't already decently informed about Mighty #9, I could easily mistake it for a 6th gen game. Kickstarter backers must be pissed.

CrimsonWing693522d ago

Oh I know I am...did the art book tier that was...well I don't want to talk about the price.

I think it might be because of how many times the game was delayed after it was shown off and given a release date.

wonderfulmonkeyman3522d ago (Edited 3522d ago )

That's my thought, too; the repeated delays have done more to harm this than any of the graphical changes or cringe-inducing voices have.

Canthar3523d ago

A game that looked to bring back that mega man esque Magic. Now has no real identity. That trailer both in appearance and in tone is horrendous. Who are they trying to market towards? Certainly not the crowd who grew up on mega and backed it...

"This is like..popping bubble wrap cool... Man."

I paid 60 dollars towards that trailer!

Null19803523d ago

You probably should have just bought $60 worth of bubble wrap.

Segata3523d ago

As did I. The bubble wrap app on Roku is more fun than this game

Null19803523d ago

Wow, how did they manage to screw up their awesome looking early concepts so badly? Where the hell did the $4mil budget go? This looks like it was made by a group of recent game school grads, not industry veterans. I truly feel bad for all the people who backed money on this. :\

garrettbobbyferguson3523d ago

The concept art was there just to generate hype. Nothing more.

Ristul3522d ago

"Where the hell did the $4mil budget go? " Right into Inafune's big fat bank account.

TwoForce3522d ago

Also, Recore is directed by Infume.

Man, what a let down this was. I don’t even want to admit what I added to the crowd fund… let’s just say I learned a valuable lesson.

coolbeans374d ago

I think a large swath of the N4G community has been in your shoes.

Lol, I literally said that out loud when clicking on this article.

VersusDMC1261d ago

Only tried the demos for both and mighty 9 looked atrocious. Megaman 11 was fun and polished. Never played both full versions but will see it they are on PS Extra when i get home.

Mostly get my megaman fix playing the azure gunvolt games and spin offs. And Maverick Hunter X on my Vita.

VersusDMC1261d ago

Just tried Mighty No 9 again on PSExtra...graphics are atrocious and taking down enemies by dashing into them feels so hollow.

Kickstarter's Gaming Successes Prove Big Gaming Doesn't Know What Fans Want

Kickstarter has allowed game developers all over the world to bring their respective visions to life, while AAA Studios remains out of touch.

TheEnigma3132143d ago

This is very true. Companies like EA, UBI, MS seem to be disconnected from what fans want.

Um I’m not too sure about that check how well those games sold besides the money they got from Kickstarter they didn’t sell nearly as much as most games from publishers (AAA or not).

The unfortunate reality is these days games like Shenmue 3 and Bloodstained are incredibly niche and the only way it could survive is by use of a fan funded website like Kickstarter.
