Yeesh....I know you feel bad about wasting 10k but give me a break...
"Mighty No. 9's Designer Says 'I Own All the Problems That Came With This Game' "
I guess Inafune's translator wasn't tactful on how to translate Inafune's words and as a result, the interview got butchered a bit. Basically though Inafune knows the game has gone horribly and is seemingly taking responsibility but no snippets of the interview reveal how he feels about the game aside from the well known problems. The translator tries to make you feel bad for hating on the game by saying things such as "only 60% of that 4 million was used for the game," "we're humans too, we cry ourselves to sleep if we put out bad games or disappoint players" to paraphrase in simple terms.

Probably the same. Anything to help him sleep at night
I think we'll hear it from someone who decided they don't have anything to lose by making it public.
But that's just me.

Why would I expect anything else?
For those of you who've backed the game, I'm sorry. Not an ironic sorry either, like I legitimately feel bad your money went to this instead of what was promised.
Is it bad that I kind of wanted to see this fail. I mean I liked the idea behind it even though the game itself never really appealed to me and I feel bad for all the backers but...just how much of a mess this project turned out to be long before it was even released and inafune's over ambitiousness and attitude...

Yup. Also, they just used ctrl+f to replace every instance of "his" to "her" for the Ray campaign, but were too lazy to proofread it so you end up with words like 'ther" instead of "this".
Embarrassing.
Magma you make excellent points. Even before MN9 came up I never really cared for Inafune because he always came off more as wanting an ego boost first.
Taking him out of the equation, I was hoping the game would succeed despite the obstacles it had. The thing that makes me happy to see it fail is how he mismanaged the money he was given, time, resources, and the fan support. He needed a bit of a reality check IMO.

I think Mega Man was going better in MM8's direction but that's just me, I don't know how much involved he was in that game though.
Judging from the Graphics for MN9, It looks like he was trying to do some Sucessor to the PSP MM games like Powered Up... Doesn't excuse the fact that it honestly looks worse than a PSP title. Both Powered Up and that X title (I forget what it was called, sorry) looked rather gorgeous for their time, and still hold up fairly well.
