Anyone hoping for some good news about the fan campaign looking to get Mega Man Legends 3 Project developed should look away now.

It's been a rough month for gaming fans. After North American gamers rallied to get Nintendo to publish The Last Story, Pandora's Tower and Xenoblade Chronicles and were met with a "no" it seems that it's now Capcom providing a disappointing response. When Capcom officially cancelled Mega Man Legends 3 Project fans decided to try and convince them that there was an audience for the game.

In spite of a strong online petition and passionate pleas it seems Capcom aren't changing their mind about this. Speaking to Kotaku a Capcom spokesperson stated they were aware of the Facebook group but they would not be changing their plans: "While Capcom has a built a strong relationship with its community and values their feedback, Mega Man Legends 3 development has officially ceased without plans to resume development."

"There are tough realities in this industry that are largely left unpublicized for a good reason�because they're tough. All games go through a multi-stage approval process, but most games are not brought to the public's attention until that final approval has been met. With Mega Man Legends 3, exposing the fans to that process was part of the project's core concept�to show everybody what it really means to create a game. We were all in it together here, for better or worse, and now together we must accept the outcome that many games ultimately face."

Whether this will convince the group to give up and admit defeat or try and fight harder remains to be seen but it would appear that Capcom are pretty set on their decision.
