You often hear about fan projects being shut down with a carefully placed cease and desist notice from the company that they're aiming to mimic and praise. On the one hand, you can sort of understand - the big publisher simply wants to protect its property. On the other, it's a shame to see a fan's hard work and dedication to their gaming love go to waste.
Street Fighter's 25th anniversary is coming to a close, and Mega Man's is just about to begin. This is a tricky situation, because giving too much attention to one franchise and not enough to the other could upset the fans and leave Capcom with something of a mess on their hands. So, how does one avoid this issue? By combining the two in a single game and calling it Street Fighter X Mega Man, of course.
