Just because in most cases, companies turn a blind eye to "fan works" of copyright infringement (as that makes for bad PR), it doesn't make said infringement technically permissable.<br />-udundamnedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10858925770282393755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-42075267762930332962012-03-27T14:16:05.277-05:002012-03-27T14:16:05.277-05:00As much as I would like them to open a store in my...As much as I would like them to open a store in my city, let alone Canada, there's no way in hell that is happening.Dr. Jerknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-3779219151662112032012-03-27T13:41:34.702-05:002012-03-27T13:41:34.702-05:00@Dhylec: Just because Capcom has enough money to o...@Dhylec: Just because Capcom has enough money to open this store doesn't mean they're going to utilize Megaman in a way that unambiguously proves that they still care about the series. But at the very least, it and Capcom's other series aren't currently at risk of falling into some dead-company legal void. So I guess it's mostly a good thing in the technical sense?<br /><br />At any rate, I hope that Capcom will at least give CAPkobun credit.RADIXnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-72247162274333667292012-03-27T13:34:48.735-05:002012-03-27T13:34:48.735-05:00"He does hope he'll receive permission ne..."He does hope he'll receive permission next time."<br /><br />Why would he need permission?Rockmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04924272235436001773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-33548224015761542442012-03-27T12:08:15.714-05:002012-03-27T12:08:15.714-05:00Lulz, oops indeed.
