No, Hell hasn't frozen over! Mighty No 9 is finally out and KickStarter Backers should start receiving their codes from Humble Bundle. There is "some" bad news though... A bug on the Xbox 360 version is delaying the game a few days and the Vita version is still in development (PlayStation version is cross buy between the PS3, PS4 and Vita versions). We are just waiting for the PSN store to update to try out our code! Also, the 3DS version is labeled as "Coming Soon" for all regions and the WiiU version for Australia and Europe as well as the soundtrack are labeled "Coming Really Soon" with the delayed Xbox 360 version. So, after YEARS worth of delays, we finally get the game in hand! The only downside? Some stores broke street date for the physical versions, so some people have been able to play the game for the last couple of days...

In something that is finally starting to frustrate me, but has frustrated everyone else LONG ago, Mighty Number 9 will not make it's February Launch date, pushed back to "Spring." As we all know, that means April-June. Now if you just preordered, this isn't much of an issue, but for KickStarters, we are already about a year late (if not more). Current problem is blamed on it's Netcode and the version of the Unreal engine they are using no longer being officially supported. Full message from Keiji Inafune after the break.

Reminds me of Maverick Hunter X, the PSP remake of Mega Man X1, and that is a GREAT thing! We jumped onto the Kickstarter and have no idea what version to get! I want them all!

And the winner by less than 3%, and the Call I voted for, option F! Granted, E was also a close second, but just didn't feel right to me. So, now to see how Call will interact with Beck in Mighty No. 9! Source: KickStarter

And that date is March 4, 2014! Read the PR and watch the new trailer after the break

With Keiji Inafune's Mighty No 9 in the spotlight, some people may have forgotten that Comcept is working with Team Ninja on Yaiba. A heavily stylized, action, ninja slicing zombie game, Yaiba will now also grace PC gamers with an appearance on STEAM. No specs on the PC version have been given, but like most other PC games, this has the potential to be the best version of the game visually. Read the PR after the break

Well, in the year 2015, Mighty No. 9 will save humanity from 8+ other Mighty Numbered Robots! As you can see, we get the game on PC, Mac, Linux, PS3, Xbox 360, Wii U, PS4, Xbox One, Vita and 3DS! So top it off, Call gets her own stage and boss and MUCH MUCH MORE! Since Keiji Inafune is still looking towards all supporters for input, this will be a group effort with around 70,000+ supporters on board, including us! First up, picking a final Call design and the wait for the Mighty Forums to go live! Source: KickStarter Mighty No. 9 Page

With the KickStarter campaign almost over, Mighty No 9 is now set to be released on all home TV based consoles as well as PC, Linux and Mac. With that said, we are SO close to having a 3DS and Vita version as well as Call having her own stage and boss!!! Come on people, let's make this happen! Source: Mighty No 9 KickStarter Page

What is awesome about this is that it looks like a spiritual successor to Mega Man. After a day, they are past the 50% mark of their $900000 goal, so it looks as if this is happening!
