Looks kinda neat, even though not much was shown.

I'm so happy to see they're still working on this game.

This game has one of the most unique development cycles I have ever seen. In technical terms, the game has not even been greenlit yet... So weird.

Did not get to play much of the first one, but I really remember liking the second one. I really have no plans to get a 3DS and am not even certain if it will even catch on if I am to be honest, but I am still glad to see this game "Sort of" happen.

I hope this demo does well. I'd hate to see the game get canceled at this point.

Emulate it, I loved it, but I should replay it because I was like..... 8? Somewhere around there.

There is a PC version, but it's for Win 98. Not sure if you could get it to run.

@CrazyTails:
I played the PSX version and found it to be really enjoyable. One thing to take not of is that it's not all that similar to any other Mega Man title. Atmosphere-wise, it reminded me a lot more of Skies of Arcadia.
The controls will probably take you a while to get used to as well. I think I messed around with them a bit to find something that worked well for me. It plays a bit like a dual analogue-third person shooter, but with tank controls.

I think I switched it around so that the shoulder buttons turned the character, while the left and right on the d-pad were used to strafe. It worked pretty well that way.

The game has a lot of personality though.

Well I tried it out and from what I played I can say it's okay, but of course kinda dated but i'm having fun. I have no problem with "dated" games and can adjust just fine to them. Just saved some guy from under the dungeons and got this part for a car. The controls are what feel most dated. I found myself immadiatly using the 2 analogs lol. You know one for control and the other for camera. I did end up getting used to the d-pad + triggers.

I might actually give it a chance. It kind of reminds me of evolution in a way that you have the town and dungeons. There's no music in the dungeons. No music in dark places always creep me out in games. It feels weird for a megaman game to feel that kind of thrill lol. Is it me?

I played it when I was 7 or 8. All I remember is I got pretty far, not sure if I finished it, but it felt really 'magical' to me. That was right around the period I switched to being a Sony fanboy from a Nintendo fanboy, I didn't know what a Fanboy was back then but I was definitely one of them.

Haha, MML 3 is my killer app too. Nintendo's line up sucks except for Super Mario 3D, the rest shows Nintendo is definitely phoning this one in.

Their output is so disappointing. I don't know how Nintendo fans can be excited. I was at target the other day and the 3DS was finally set up, it was a weekend so I expected a line of stupid kids with sticky hands hitting the device. It was empty, the kids where all playing console games.

I decided to try it, thinking it was going to have the Super Street Fighter demo from Gamestop. To my surprise this one had Pilotwings Resort. The 3D was just a blurry. I read reviews for it that praised it... I thought maybe I was crazy. I showed the people with me the game and they all said it looked blurry. So I tried angles, the best I could get it still looked shit.

I played a few rounds of the game (fly here, fly there) and was super unimpressed. Yet the game got pretty good score. I'm sure its a playable game, but its like no one has high expectations for new hardware.
