Three months later Mighty no. 9 is still a failure

"After almost six months, backers are still waiting for their MN9 PS Vita codes, fulfillment rewards, and some are waiting for just plain answers on what the hell went wrong with the platformer..." - Kenay Peterson, TGG

PhoenixUp2783d ago

It hasn't been almost six month since this game came out.!t's barely even been 4 months.

Exaggerating headline much

Littil_Devil2783d ago

June 21st, so I don´t know if the author started to count from this event? https://www.kickstarter.com...

Simon_the_sorcerer2782d ago

That´s why I thought as well. As I didn´t recall MN9 being released as far back as six months.

Littil_Devil2783d ago

I sorted it out, I´m sorry about that.

Littil_Devil2782d ago

I thought they counted from the last Kickstarter days at first, but the correct time span would be about four months. Nevertheless, it´s true that the game is still one big giant flop.

Simon_the_sorcerer2782d ago

Then just imagine what that one guy (or girl) who spent 10K USD to have a dinner with Keiji Inafune must have felt...

Simon_the_sorcerer2782d ago

Didn´t MN9 cost + 4 million USD to make?

Simon_the_sorcerer2782d ago

Jesus fu**ing Christ...I´m sure glad that I didn´t back that mess of a game.

gtxgamer22782d ago

It just seems as of recently Kickstarter games have been somewhat lacking. Besides Star Citizen of course.

CrimzonRazor2782d ago

Star citizen is easly the next nms

Enigma_20992782d ago

Aren't they already selling DLC for that game... and it isn't even out yet? WTF?

chobit_A5HL3Y2782d ago

i hope shenmue doesn't take the same road this one did...

CrimzonRazor2782d ago

Oh its doomed it will never live up to the hype

Red_Renegade2782d ago

it won't live down to the people that want it to fail.

TheColbertinator2782d ago

Worried for Bloodstained. Excited for the Vita version the most

huh..... well this could get interesting.

I predicted it would be Hermen Hulst as the new CEO, I never predicted there would be another…

Hulst will likely Host the PlayStation press event and hopefully there will be a positive energy at this new beginning for the division. I’m encouraged that both he and Hideaki Nishino reference the future so it sounds like Sony has a plan.

I'm a bit skeptical. The new guy is unknown. Of all the leaders in the past 18 years Sony has had great leaders at the helm Carrying on the legacy of what made PS great. Sony's has a newer vision and focus for PS this time around. We'll see what happens.

As I said before two leads can be a good thing wherever they want to take PS they'll have a single joint focus and take PS to new heights (if said focus is gamer first) or bad if they have two different visions. Then you'll end up like the circus clowns over at MS.

The plan: everything on Steam day 1

Cacabunga2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Oh God no!! We have seen nothing since Hulst took over WW Studios. As a gamer ands PS fan I’m worried about what would happen

-Foxtrot1h ago

Well hopefully they have a plan because Herman hasn’t really done much since he got promoted last time

Remakes and remasters mainly

This is a really nice selection to me because Hulst is an actual game developer and has been doing so for decades. A developer in charge of making games. Not bad.

Plus the separation of responsibility is interesting and a nice way of handling an incredibly complex role.

PS studios has zero output under Hulst.

Only remasters and PC ports

Dude even managed to kill Naughty Dog

Obscure

By that same logic you can say the same about phil...and hes had longer to accomplish something at xbox.

Joint venture could be very tricky. They need to be on the exact same page on things. It's two guys calling shots.

We know Herman, but we dont know the other guy or his motives/agendas. Obviously it's to make money but how he'll go about it we'll see soon enough.

JackBNimble4h ago

That's why they would need 3 , so when they disagree they can vote . 1 on 1 could be asking for trouble, but at least sony isn't letting 1 guy take playstation in "his own direction ".

All studios can make Horizon games now!

Interesting. 2 CEOs sharing the workload.

darthv728h ago

Two men enter (Hulst/Nishino)
One man leaves (Ryan)

The Thunderdome reference wasn't lost on me 😎

mudakoshaka56m ago

@Barlos Had no idea that was from Thunderdome. I remember a similar line from Con Air when Steve Buscemi says it to Nic Cage after fighting the other guy in the cargo hold. Con Air must have taken it from Thunderdome.

romulus238h ago

Hulst will be CEO of the studios business group, and Nishino CEO of Platforms.

Relientk778h ago

Good luck to them and I hope they do great jobs. Let's see the games. Really hoping that rumored PlayStation Showcase is coming up soon.
