    Interesting. Retro Gamer Magazine is pretty popular here in the UK and is on most news stands. Strange to see something similar hasn't already been done in the US and Canada, especially seeing as the market size is larger.

    I don't get the cover art. Looks like NiGHTS dressed up like Mega man.

    It's Mighty no. 9, basically a shameless pandering cash grab by Keiji Inafune after he realized his career went down the drain faster than Nicolas Cage's.

    It's Mighty No.9

    Capcom basically abandoned (but not before spitting in the face of via several cancellations) the Megaman fan base after the series original creator (Keiji Inafune) left the company a few years ago. Seeing that there was still demand for more Megaman, but without the resources to license his creation back from Capcom, he created a kickstarter for a spiritual successor dubbed 'Mighty No.9'. The Kickstarter was very successful.
