Mighty No. 9 Kickstarter Reaches Funding Goal


These last two days have been a ride. It's been compelling, sitting here just watching the numbers increase. And now, as of this morning, Comcept's Mighty No. 9 has crossed its $900,000 goal. Given that the campaign launched not even two days, this is an incredible feat. Our haste is a true testament to Inafune and his colleagues. Make no mistake: this is a game we want. This is a character, a world, we want to behold. Well done.

So what happens next? Simple: keep going. There's a whole list of stretch goals to tackle. We've got a lot of ground to cover there, but I think all of us are interested in what happens at 2.5 million -- home console versions. PS3, Xbox 360 and WiiU, to be specific.  It's a big undertaking, but I believe it can happen.

The passion from the community has brought us this far in such a short period of time. Keep the momentum up and we'll go the distance.

  1. I keep seeing this as it should be, MegaMan! Capcom says they have suffered enough at the hands of fans, Id say they had enough when those who make business decisions over there sits on the street begging people to pay to shine their shoes!

  3. I am not surprised. I am sure that they will reach about 2,000,000 for Wii U, PS3 (Why not PS4? Weird) And Xbox 360 (Why not XBOX one? Weird as well). Maybe it can be done. Wait and see. Right now, just look at Shovel Knight that reached 311,502 from 75,000 goal.

  5. This (900K) is just the beginning, the real fight for everlasting peace (2.5M) starts from now and it still continues after that.

    The more stretch goals we can achieve and the more money gathered, the more we will be able to prove to Capcom our true power of fan support that they really underestimated.

  6. It's a good effort, but I want to see some actual gameplay before I pony up.

    How hard was to try this Capcom? a simple 2.5D WITH SOUL, would have sufficed.
