The funding for Keiji Inafune’s Kickstarter campaign for Mega Man successor Mighty No 9 seems to have slowed down quite a bit. However, the campaign has hit another one of its major stretch goals. It now sits on a pile of $2.2 million, which means that when completed, the game won’t just be a PC-exclusive. It will be making its way to PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii U as well. Mighty No 9 is set to be available through digital distribution channels some time in 2015. In the mean time, check out some new concept art of another boss:Mighty No 2 has quite an interesting design for a boss

The campaign currently has 14 more days to go, and the next stretch goals are the inclusion of a Challenge mode, an extra final stage and boss fight, Beck and Call online co-op Challenge mode, and the last one at $3.3 million, a port to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

In the game, players take on the role of Beck, 9th in a line of powerful robots and the only one to not get infected by a mysterious computer virus that has been causing other robots to go berserk. Much like the classic Mega Man, players will get to run, jump, blast and transform their way through six levels, which can be tackled in any order. More levels will likely be added through stretch goals. Beck, being the robot that he is, has the ability to get new weapons from defeated foes and transform his body in a number of ways, which in turn allow for new skills and abilities.

Ever heard of one of those people who just never seem to shut up about something? Shunal is like the nerd equivalent of that guy. Believe us when we say that he can go on talking about games and smartphones for hours on end. We do manage to find some insight in his insane ramblings though, and through his moronic facade, he does seem to know more than he lets on. Sadly enough, it always ends up being about gaming with him. Or stupid, stupid puns.
