Now that you bring this up, that WOULD be cool! But it would be even more poignant if they saved that for Mega Man 10
Oooo...I always found it interesting that the name of the series after it is Megaman "X"..I mean..because X is roman numeral 10, of course..
I know that isn't why it is titled that, but its still interesting to think about..
Also..I hope, that if this game is in fact true, it is still 2d. Even if it is cel shaded or 3d graphics, we all know that a 2d Megaman series going to 3d is a bad idea...
(Megaman X7 anyone?)
But yeah..I hope this game becomes a reality.
