They don't seem to be, because legends 3 was a big deal with a lot of fan input behind the process. Then Capcom decided to cancel the game and made a stupid statement saying " The fans didn't give us enough support" which really angered the fanbase, and partically led to Infuane, the creator of Mega Man, to leave Capcom and create his own games, which one of them is considered a spiritual successor to mega man called Mighty No.9, which will be coming out next year. So far, Capcom canceled all other Megaman project and hasn't announced anything new for megaman as of present.

Why the hell did they say that for? So the mega man franchise is dead now basically?

Yeah at the moment, it seems pretty dead. Two online games( I think Mega Man Online/ Mega Man Universe) were shown as really cool trailers, but they decided to cancel those games as well. Right now, capcom has just been focusing on resident evil and street fighters, while leaving many of their other ip's dormant on the wayside.

Mighty No. 9 is the next gen Mega Man reboot you are looking for...

http://www.mightyno9.com

It's being made by one of the original creators of Mega Man.

A great cancelled game you can actually find online and play right now is Star Fox 2 for SNES.

The game was finished but never released.

In fact if you own a Retron 5 you can grab an IPS patch to turn your Star Fox 1 cart into Star Fox 2:

They can't. There is no mention of Mega Man or Dr. Wiley and he takes liberties with the art style and gameplay that he wanted to make a long time ago but wasn't allowed to due to Capcoms control.

It's only a spiritual successor to Mega Man. But again.

It's probably the Mega Man reboot you've been looking for. :)

I don't think it  will work in their favor, because they really need customer support right now and are struggling to keep afloat with the rest of their stuff, as well as the fact that so many people are distrusting of their practices. Inafune has stated he is willing to work with Capcom on this " if they offer the best terms" but we'll see if Capcom tries to pull anything before the game release. They aren't breaking any ip issues with this game anyways so Capcom can't really do much about this and I don't think they really seem to care.

Lamborghini for the Xbox/PS2/GC

Cancelled in 2003 when Rage Software shut down. Apparently the XBox version was (mostly) finished, but never released, the assets of the game being sold off and ultimately becoming Juiced (which featured precisely 0 Lambo's).

Shenmue 3: it is unknown how far in development it got, but as most of us know it's never been released and likely never will.


Zone of the Enders 3: This game was in development as well, but due to poor sales of the Zone of the Enders HD collection it was cancelled.

The Scud Race/Sega Super GT port for the Dreamcast. It was first concieved as a Sega Saturn demo, then shown as a tech demo for one of Sega's  Dreamcast presentations but it got scrapped before the launch of the Dreamcast, and the closest thing to it on a console is the Beginner track of that game for Outrun 2 for Xbox, but doesn't quite match up.

Sonic Crackers comes to my mind. Also Terminator for NES but that was later turned into Journey to Silius. Also wasn't there a coupled Sonic games canceled for the Saturn?

HALF-LIFE 3 COMFIRMED
