Capcom Responds to MAXPLOSION/'SPLOSION MAN Controversy

Capcom has officially responded to the MaXplosion/'Spolsion Man controversy we mentioned yesterday.

"While Twisted Pixel did have discussions with our console game team about publishing ‘Splosion Man’ on game consoles, Capcom Mobile is a different division of Capcom with separate offices and as such, had no prior knowledge of any meetings between the console game team and Twisted Pixel. ‘MaXplosion’ was developed independently by Capcom Mobile. Nonetheless, we are saddened by this situation and hope to rebuild the trust of our fans and friends in the gaming community."

The Twisted Pixel crew, while obviously quite upset over the matter, seems to be taking it all in stride. Through the tragedy, a new Twitter meme has been born in which followers of the developer create fun, Capcom Mobile-published knock-offs of other Twisted Pixel titles.
