Aug 16, 2007 // christine

2007 marks a momentous milestone for the Blue Bomber: his 20th Anniversary! Capcom celebrated in style on Broadway with none other than the game’s creator, Keiji Inafune. The executive producer and creator of the Mega Man series, traveled from Osaka, Japan for a mega signing event at GameStop on Broadway and 33rd in New York City.

He signed over 2,000 pieces of fan memorabilia collected over the last two decades: Nintendo 64, DS and GBA systems, games, iPods, t-shirts and even pairs of shoes!

Hundreds of requests for pictures and drawings did not stop Mr. Inafune from smiling in fact, on more than one occasion he offered to draw a picture of Mega Man for each of his fans. The fans will not forget his kindness and diligent style, which has been so evident in his 20 years of dedication to the Mega Man brand.

Some guests presented gifts of art pieces to Mr. Inafune to express their appreciation and gratitude, mentioning how he had been such an inspiration in their lives. We would like to sincerely thank Mega Man fans for coming out to support the brand and one of the most iconic game makers in the world!
