Capcom is calling Mega Man Legends 3 for the Nintendo 3DS the first Capcom game to be co-developed by fans. Thatās why thereāll be a prototype version of the game available for testing as soon as Nintendo opens up the 3DS eShop.
Thatās right, Capcom is releasing an unfinished version of a game still in early development in order to let fans in on the creation process. Mega Man Legends 3: Prototype Version will give players their first taste of the new titleās locations, characters, and the new close combat battle system over the course of a selection of missions. Once those missions are finished, players game access to unfinished areas of the game, along with a debug room where they can try out some special moves and hidden abilities.
