Citing 'various circumstances', Capcom has decided to pull the plug on Mega Man Universe. One of the main reasons is probably the fact that Mega Man creator, Keiji Inafune, left Capcom last Fall. He was the conceptual lead behind this user generated take on the classic Mega Man gameplay. The game itself didn't look that interesting to be honest, it was literally an ugly re-make of Mega Man 2. I don't see why they would need Inafune to be there to continue development of something like this, seeing as how it should be mostly user driven. It's a shame,it would have been interesting to see what other gamers could cook up if the tool set was comprehensive enough.
