Boy this thread is gonna look really stupid when it turns out it's just a common NFT scam and not actually Inafune...
Whoops, looks like I was too late already.

Honestly, I think half of why people push it so much right now is because regulation hasn't caught up and therefore you can abuse the hell out of it. The moment that it no longer works as scam the gold rush is over.
As I was expecting. Gotta love how what originally seemed like interesting new technology has become a fertile ground for scammers and liars.
I mean, don't get me wrong, there are certainly several aspects of him that deserve criticism, like the comments he made about the Japanese industry, some of the decisions he took while managing the Mega Man franchise, not to mention his involvement in the infamous "Westaboo" phase of Capcom in the late 00's.
Still, the hate towards him really seems disproportionate. If he had done something truly henious I'd get it, but he really didn't.
Ok, he mismanaged his crowdfunding campaign, delievered a mediocre product as a result and ultimately failed to fulfill all the backer's rewards or took ages to delivered them. But he was not a conman or a grifter out to deliberately scam people. His ego got the best out of him and he did a lot of mistakes, but wasn't operating out of genuine malice.
He certainly deserves criticism for the failure of MN9, but people just take it way too far.
