Fine then! You all can get cold feet, when this turns out to be Legends 3, Capcom is going to send me an early copy called "darfox8 edition". And it's going to be better than all the additional copies they print.
If it turns out not to be Legends 3, then I guess... I'll eat a can of tuna or something.
But seriously speaking. Beside Megaman Legends 3 and Megaman X9, what other Megaman title could be "oft-requested"? No one is asking for more BN or Star Force. No one is really dieing to see more ZX. It could possibly be another classic Megaman, since the general consensus on the last two were, "That was cool. Wouldn't mind more." But that really wouldn't fit the style of the tease.(I should acknowledge that all of these games that I mentioned have a lot of fans and I'm sure they'd love to see more of them. So I really shouldn't say "no one", but again... it just doesn't fit Inafune's tease unless he's a big jerk.)
In the end: who really knows(beside Capcom folk), I re-admit that I can be completely wrong but I don't think I am.

I think smokeeye makes a good point. It seems so 100% MML3, it could juse be a ploy by Inafune to convince capcom to finally let him make it.

It really does seem like a real possibility...I mean, I can understand Capcom's worries over if anyone actually wants the game to be released. The 2000 people who were all screaming "LEGENDS 3" probably proved that to them. Either that, or Inafune really thought more people would want the "Mystery game" over Legends 3...Unless of course the game is Legends 3 in the first place...lol @ Darfox08, do you not like tuna? LOL Anyways, yeah, it would be totally lame if it was Megaman 11...3 games in 3 years?...If only we were saying that about Legends games...^__^. If I were to take a guess right now, I'd say that it wasn't Legends 3, just from what his blog reads...He doesn't really disprove it, but he certainly doesn't drop any hints that it is under development, which you think he would.

Let's just keep up hope, is all that I can say at this point. I mean, we've come this far to prove our stance, right? We can't burn this down for the insurance money juuust yet.

I'm not sure I'd go all-in myself, but then again it's been so long that to get hyped over the possibility of another Legends game at all, even just a little, might be psychologically taxing. I mean, if I straight-up jumped to the conclusion of Legends 3 every time Capcom announced a new Mega Man game in the works, I'd have probably literally driven myself mad. The real truth is, I don't want to risk going all-in on something like this unless there is solidified, concrete evidence that Mega Man Legends 3 is going to happen, without a doubt. I can't let the hype interfere with my real life unless it's hype that will ultimately end in having the game and being able to devote time out of my life to play it. It's been ten years since the last time we've had a real installment that we could play, on a platform we have access to, in a language we understand. If I went rushing head-first into hype without reservations every time someone announced a hint or a tease or a taunt or an April Fool's prank, I would either go absolutely insane from having my hopes crushed again and again and again, or at the very least it would wind up trickling into my school, work and personal lives. Right now my co-worker is actually poking me with a pen and trying to remind me what I'm actually getting paid to do. You can see how and why I'd have my reservations. I haven't lost hope, I just can't mentally risk financial security on the possibility of a video game's existence. It's been such a long time that I know, without question, that if Legends 3 were actually announced, I would wind up devoting a large portion of my time to following every piece of information about it that crops up. Back when Legends 2 was in the works I printed out a lousy, full-color MS Publisher newsletter following the game's development at least once a week (sometimes single-pagers that said nothing but 'No New Updates'), costing my mother a hefty chunk of change in printer ink. Not saying I'll go back to that, but I'd at least print out a collection of screencaps and make a cheesy article-stalking scrapbook that would put fab's sigs to shame. Honestly, I was almost tempted to do that with the Kattelox Island MvC3 screens simply because there were new models for the Bonne family involved and a nice, intricate environment complete with real CG water. Then I remembered I needed to graduate college. Anyway, if the game is actually announced, THEN I'll jump all in. When I'm in, I'm in deep. But as long as we're still in the speculation/hint phase, I'd rather not get emotionally attached to the idea that we could actually see a legitimate announcement before the year is up. Granted, if we do get some form of official confirmation, I might do something so crazy I'd have to temp-ban myself. At least I'm thankful that there's more hope of Legends 3 development than there is of my primary school best friend getting a reply to her Jonathan Taylor Thomas fan letter anytime soon.

Well, in my case, Megaman is Megaman, and I've always loved Megaman. I'm not gonna go all-in as you guys are talking about but i am already in deep, I'll be stung if it's not MML3, but not crushed. I'd be happy if it were Starforce 4 but that's because Starforce is my second favorite MM series.

I wish the information we had was something more solid than what amounts to game journalist speculation. :12:

After all, the only things the reports said was that Inafune made Megaman, hinting it'd have something to do with the Blue Boy, but not exactly stating that it was the Blue Boy. Even still i really would like a Network-Universe MM game to come out, SF4, BN7, aw heck, even another new title, just continue the Data-style MM games they're fun easy and cognitively engaging. ---Of course, if it's MML3 i'll be utterly estatic!

Well, I seriously doubt that it'll be BN7 or SF4. Heck, BN ended and SF3 pretty much left the series at a point where it could end or continue, so I get the feeling that that'll be left alone for awhile. MML2 and X9 both left with cliffhanger-endings (so did ZXA), so there's that much more of a demand for them.
I'm hoping that this turns out to be MML3, although I won't be shocked if it's not. Still, I have a pretty good feeling about this.

Still, I have a pretty good feeling about this.Many would say SF3 was a good end-all open ending, but i myself say otherwise. SF3 ended well, yeah, but the end credits' scenes cant be considered 100% Canon, so Ace is still 'possibly dead'. ---So i feel they need a new game to wrap up all the loose ends. i'm sleepy right now so i wont dive into them in details but i feel it was way too loose-end filled to be the overall ending, plus, i know Hyde was KOed but he didnt "die" like ace "did", so i smell a comeback. And as for BN7 i was just mentioning that for emphasis on my point. Still MLL3 will be the one i truly want though so all is hunky-dory with Hulk and Spidey!

I totally understand peoples reservations, and I admire them for being so reasonable. I'm always a little disappointed in large Fan-Bases of certain games, that flip-out every once in awhile after some sort of disappointment.
As I said before, even though I'm going "all in", I still find it conceivable that I'm wrong. And I'm honestly not going to rub it in anybodies faces in case it turns out to be Legends 3. Just like I wouldn't expect you guys make fun of me if I'm the only one caught with his pants down. Though I also wouldn't actually blame you guys/be bitter if you did. Not sure if there's customs tags or something similar in these forums but it'd be funny if I received one that said something like "Still thinks he's fighting the Civil War" after refusing to believe that it's not Legends 3.

"Still thinks he's fighting the Civil War" Definitely going to be my tagline now. I think I'm going to be disappointed if it isn't, but I'll absolutely flip out if it is (in a good way). When I get excited about things like this, I sometimes act overly ecstatic. It's fun! I think (if and) when MML3 comes out I'll be first (likely the only one) in line at the games store for when it opens. Pre-orders? COUNT ME IN.

I think (if and) when MML3 comes out I'll be first (likely the only one) in line at the games store for when it opens. Pre-orders? COUNT ME IN. Same here. In fact, I'll pre-order two copies of the Japanese version and choose the next-day shipping option. Then when it's announced for overseas, then I'll pre-order yet again two copies on the day it's in GameStop's systems for reservations. Back on topic, I'm pretty confident that it's RockMan DASH 3, but at the same time awaiting disappointment. I mean, we've been wanting RockMan DASH 3 for a century, so that game's the closest to what Inafune means by "oft-requested". Yet Capcom likes money, so it might just be RockMan X9, RockMan ZX 3, or Ryuusei no RockMan 4. :17:

So then, Darfox, it's settled. If Mega Man Legends 3 isn't announced by January 1, 2011, or if another new Mega Man game is announced before then (in that spot we're convinced is for something in the Legends saga), your custom title will be changed to "Still Thinks He's Fighting the Civil War."
Surprisingly, though, I've met with a lot of people in college who've played, remembered, and liked Mega Man Legends and have never even heard of this place. There are definitely a lot more of us than I thought, so the fanbase is absolutely there.
