When Mega Man Legends 3 was canceled, Devroom liaison Greg made brief mention of a form of compensation. People whose ideas and creations selected to appear in the game were said to receive a commemorative gift at a later date. Well, that day may soon be upon us.Devroom winners have begun receiving a special personal message from Greg himself on Capcom Unity, with instructions on how to obtain Capcom's commemorative gift. We've no indication what exactly the gift is, however. It remains to be seen if that information is forthcoming or if the gift is intended to be a surprise of sorts. In any case, I wouldn't get your hopes up for something huge. Keep your expectations in check, and you won't be disappointed.
If you haven't received a message from Greg, stay patient. Just keep a close eye on your Unity inbox. When you receive it, give Greg all the required information. Not required, but I also implore you to send some brief words of thanks to Greg for all his hard work. He did an exceptional job of maintaining the North American Devroom, well worth the props.
Should more news on the gift surface, I'll let you know.
I'm just still waiting for my Bobble Bud to arrive. >_<
ReplyDeleteI received a message today. Quite a pleasant surprise. Unsure if he wanted the world to know about it, but I'm sure it doesn't matter too much. The message was brief and with kind words of appreciation and apology. Still disappointing that the game has still been cancelled...but I am very appreciative myself of their gesture of gratitude. Can't want to see what they have in mind. I bet it's one of those Servbot mugs with our respective Servbot numbers screened onto them (it was asked for in the information requested). =3
ReplyDeleteIf we all turn out to get bobble budds, I'll laugh. This would be my fourth. XD
ReplyDeleteIt'll probably like one of those gag can of peanuts that has the fake snake in them, only it will have a fist and punch them for daring to contribute to Legends 3.
ReplyDeleteEven though I contributed to Devroom, $50 says I ain't getting shit.
ReplyDeleteI'll get seemingly forgotten or one of those "Oh we missed one" moments. -_-
They'll send them sealed 3DS game cases that say Megaman Legends 3: Prototype Version.
ReplyDeleteAnd when you put the card in, it boots up and says "CANCELLED".
I didn't get a PM, but I don't expect to get one anyway.
ReplyDeleteThey just try to buy your sympathie....
ReplyDeletescrew you capcom......
You know what the best gift would be? If they chose to release the game. >.>
ReplyDeleteOf course, I joined the devroom after the project was cancelled, so... I already know I get nothing.
A 3DS and the Prototype version for all over 9000 Servbots in the Devroom?
ReplyDeleteI would flip out if they actually sent the prototype version. It would be one of the best gifts ever, lol. I wouldn't mind if it's a bobble bud. I have yet to get one.
ReplyDeleteGolly I hope the gift to the contest winners isn't the prototype. Handing it out to the dozen people That would be a brutal way to re-enforce the slip that the fans that weren't inclined to enter the contests were just wrong not to. Then even the ones that did who simply were not the best are less appreciated.
ReplyDeleteHey Greg, how's this for a gift?
ReplyDeleteMEGA MAN LEGENDS 3.
Don't think this is over. Noooo, not by a long shot. Your fans will keep on reminding you until you do it. We're not going anywhere.
I say Capcom will send us all Data Bobble Buds.
ReplyDelete... that will invade and burn down our kitchens while trying to make pizza.
On a seperate note, pirates have made a reaction vid to DASH's cancellation:

$20 says it's a box with a lump of cow shit in it.
ReplyDeleteI got a message about this yesterday, I can't wait to see what Capcom's giving us!
ReplyDeleteIt's probably going to be one of Capcom's artwork calendars or something.
ReplyDeleteThis was just put up recently:

I'm still waiting my Zero t-shirt to arrive!
ReplyDeleteI feel bad for Greg now.
ReplyDeleteBecause I seem to get the sense that everyone is blaming him now. God people.
Why some people think that everyone working in Capcom is to blame for the game's cancellation? It's almost like Tron blaming all 41 Servbots and sending them to torture because the favorite Servbot threw away the golden Refractor. (Misadventures of Tron Bonne)
ReplyDeleteI'm angry with the "capsule computer" (or "capital company"?), but not the whole staff, specially people outside Japan as the decision was made by the big ones in Japan.

ReplyDeleteTime to collect the remains of Rocket #28 and start Rocket #29!
@Rockman: LMAO I can't help but laugh at that. Would be hilarious if it were true...
ReplyDelete@Alilatias: Funny how half of those "Capcom Heroes" haven't been seen since the nineties.
