Transcript:

Keiji Inafune wasn't solely responsible for creating Mega Man - character designs were already underway when Inafune joined Capcom. He is, however, responsible for Zero who he intended to be the main character in Mega Man X before the idea was shot down by Capcom brass.

Characters drawn by Inafune pose with a W-shaped hand gesture because the number four means death in Japanese, so characters have their ring and middle fingers clasped together, which gives the illusion of three fingers.

Because of hardware limitations, Capcom reverse-designed Mega Man by creating a pixel character that read well against Famicom rendered backgrounds. Inafune was then directed to translate those pixels into character art which became the Blue Bomber we know and love today.
