I don't want to came off as simping for Capcom because they're are a corporation and thus are only profit-driven. But I do want to give credit where credit is due. Greenlighting a sequel despite the first attempt being a flop is not something that many publishers would do. This wouldn't be the last of Capcom's unorthodox decisions. When the industry was laying off workers left and right, Capcom actually increased their employees pay. If that increase was actually a substantial increase or not I don't know but other companies won't even consider increasing employee pay by a cent.
Only they'd come back around to Mega Man a bit more
Poor Rock's been languishing for ages, with Trigger being abandoned in space for 25 years now :(
