As Resident Evil and Street Fighter flourish, Capcom has said sequels to more obscure franchises could happen, including Sengoku Basara.

      I mean, Megaman 11 wasn’t that far away.

      Also Megaman maker is excellent even though it’s a fan project. Very active community and practically infinite levels if you’re into that.

        Bought Megman 11 recently during a humble bundle. Thoroughly enjoyed it and can’t believe I didn’t pick it up sooner

    It’s so crazy how much I loved Onimusha, but among all the survival horror games that get talked about from that time period, it always seems to be forgotten. Even I forget it, and I still have the stupid katana controller! lol

    Unfortunately, I think you can probably take Onimusha off the list. The remaster of the first game didn’t sell well and they cancelled remasters of 2 and 3 because of it.

    Unless Ghost of Tsushima and Yakuza Ishin have given them more confidence in the theme to do a RE2/3/4-style remake, I think the franchise is likely to stay in the same awful niche as Dino Crisis where the audience is definitely there but ignored.

    I would love to see a modern version of Onimusha with Sekiro-style deflect combat

    I figured that some form of Mega Man has been in various games, spin-offs, and compilations released every few months for the past 35 years.

    If Capcom is bringing Mega Man “back”, when was Mega Man gone?
