And I want classic Dante in a new DMC. Capcom does these things. To be totally honest, though, has Mega Man been
commercially successful enough lately for Capcom to care? Aside from Khuntry who is diehard for MM, I didn't know the public at large gave this much a damn about the Blue Bomber. Nobody threw a party for Volnutt in TvC (and ironically Zero got more praise). He was ignored and even called out as annoying and weak in his MvC appearances. The spin-offs, ZX, Battle Network, Star Force, and Battle Command weren't huge. And they pushed BN hard - TV show and all. Nobody gave a shit.
So while I may understand why Khuntry is pissed at not having a proper MM or X in legit form for MvC3, or having Legends 3 or Universe come out, I don't see why the public at large gets so testy with the conspiracy theories
when the public at large did not support Mega Man in the franchise's time of need.

I'd also assume some of the anger could also be related to the strange or bad decisions Capcom has made this generation which keeps getting their fanbase really upset (ex. Resident Evil switching to an action-focused games, costly DLC, multiple versions of the same game, etc).

DmC, Legends 3 cancellation, PR confusion over SFxT Gems, unnecessary Westernization of their franchises, and others. Capcom's been on some strange shit.
