Fans of iconic series will see their favorite heroes and villains come to life like never before with Nintendo’s breakthrough 3D technology. The announcement was made during the Nintendo Conference 2010 which took place in Japan earlier today.

For years, fans have been clamouring for a new instalment to the Mega Man Legends series and now the Mega Man Legends 3 Project will see their request realized. Indeed, fans will have an opportunity to be part of the development process like never before as they interact directly with the team.

With over 10 years of fan requests, Capcom is pulling out all the stops to ensure that Legends 3 will be beyond awesome.  Designers famous to the franchise have submitted concepts for the design of the next heroine character to be featured in the game.  Any Mega Man game would be lucky to have even one of these big names contributing to the project, but Legends 3 gets an unprecedented NINE, including the father of Mega Man, Keiji Infaune himself.

The nine different heroine designs take nine very different approaches, and the design you pick could have effects on her personality and other parts of the game.

Voting will last until October 25th, and the combined poll results from both the English and Japanese Developer Room will determine the next heroine to be featured in game!  

The Mega Man Legends 3 Project is the first ever game to be co-developed by the fans, and to help facilitate that, Capcom created the Developer Room. This will be your resource to help provide input on the design of Mega Man Legends 3.  There will be two sites, one that supports Japanese and one that supports English.

To show it is serious about involving fans from all over the world in the game’s design, Capcom needs one of YOU, a Mega Man fan, to help manage the site. As such, a new temporary position in its San Mateo, California campus was created: The Mega Man Developer Room Community Liaison!

Whoever receives this position must:

• Manage the relationship and translation between the Japanese and English versions of the Developer Room.
• Be an avid Mega Man fan.
• Have written and verbal fluency in Japanese and English.
