With no news since Summer 2014, this is almost certainly vaporware. Shouldn't we change the self-assured present indicative on this article?

:That's [[WP:OR|original research]]. As far as we're concerned, the [[WP:VG/RS|reliable sources]] said it's due out in 2015 and we should expect it as such. If 2016 rolls around without update, we can change the context of those sentences, but we don't just make stuff up. It is not up to us to determine the state of the game's development. We only report the sources. <span style='font:bold small-caps 1.2em "Avenir";color:#909'>czar</span>&nbsp;[[user:czar|<span style="color:black;font-size:1.2em"><u>⨹</u></span>]] 19:01, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

== Game title ==

Shouldn't the title if this game be "Cuphead: Don't Deal With the Devil"? That what I'm seeing in the official website. [[Special:Contributions/108.57.88.245|108.57.88.245]] ([[User talk:108.57.88.245|talk]]) 10:37, 26 June 2015 (UTC)
: For the article title, "Cuphead" is sufficient per the [[WP:SUBTITLE|subtitle naming convention]]. "Cuphead" is the [[WP:COMMONNAME|common name]]. As for whether it's subtitled, most of the [[WP:VG/RS]] [[Wikipedia:Verifiability#Reliable sources|reliable sources]] call it just "Cuphead". When they start adding a subtitle, we can too (just in the first paragraph, though). –&nbsp;[[user talk:czar|<span style='font:bold small-caps 1.2em sans-serif;color:black'><u>czar</u></span>]] 17:25, 26 June 2015 (UTC)

== Trilogy ==

The article about the game being a trilogy and/or having add on packages (a la Sonic and Knuckles) was faulty. The Polygon article (http://www.polygon.com/2014/7/4/5870623/cartoon-inspired-cuphead-is-going-to-be-a-trilogy) incorrectly references the Killscreen article (http://killscreendaily.com/articles/cuphead-roughly-40-done-hey-its-gonna-be-trilogy/) which, if you read it, shows that the developer doesn't have specific plans for a trilogy:

"But it will ultimately be a trilogy, of sorts! '''Moldenhauer was just spitballing''', but he '''envisions''' a set of expansion packs which build on the weapons and elements introduced in the first game, sorta like the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge re-made earlier Sonic games. It's like a trilogy of games that will build Cuphead into its fullest possible Cuphead."

Furthermore, the developer himself clarified the statements on NeoGAF:

:"Woah, woah, woah, woah! (Chad from studioMDHR to the rescue!) Sometimes certain things are taken out of context and then the internet morphs them into something else.

:About the time spent working on the game: We started in 2010 with the idea, brainstorming sessions and the visual style before any basic prototyping started. It was a small part time thing that we played with. Now we are in full swing and even bringing on a few more talented folks to ensure we can cram everything we've planned into the game. We will slave more than a person can ever slave!

:And as for planned trilogy, that's only sort of true, a correct statement would be this:
:1. We have way too many ideas to fill our first game, especially from brainstorming sessions > we choose the ideas that sound amazing and put the others in our tickle trunk. (these 'tickle trunk' items are still awesome, but they haven't been fleshed out)

:2. If all goes well with the first release of Cuphead, we want to create more, BUT! BUT! We wouldn't release content just for content - we would have to fully love the ideas before they would make the cut.

:3. We aren't holding anything back from Cuphead to "have some stuff for a sequel". We are going all out on this first release to the best of our ability and within a timeline that makes sense to us. In our minds, we are treating Cuphead as if it were the only game we'll ever release.

:4. If additional Cuphead content is released, it would be worked on as it's own separate beast with new ideas, bosses, weapons, etc. - but we are thinking it would be awesome to have it all linked up, so weapons, power-ups, and more can be used across all of the final content. But, we aren't going to get ahead of ourselves...we only care about launching our game next year.

*The article has, at least according to the template, used and abused American English since August 2014, when it was created by {{u|Czar}}. While I usually prefer the developer's native kind of English, Czar usually enforces mdy date format and American English format from the beginning, as is the case here. But since this requires a discussion either way, you can count me in as '''weak support'''.

*I only added that since the section later states they are based in Canada.

== Legacy of Cuphead and game difficulty ==

It feels like the whole section has been written up by someone who has not even followed buzz about the game. Why is some racism "controversy" I've never heard of outside this article mentioned that was started by a source and a rather unknown author, but the discussion of the game's difficulty has been completely removed when it was explicitly discussed by some of the largest and most notable video game outlets (and I mean outside of the whole Polygon controversy before release)?

== Downloadable Content ==

StudioMDHR announced new downloadable content for Cuphead called "Cuphead: The Delicious Last Course", and I think the article needs a "Downloadable Content" section to reflect this information. The DLC is going to release in 2019.[[User:MacKing92|MacKing92]] ([[User talk:MacKing92|talk]]) 14:07, 20 June 2018 (UTC)

== Microsoft Exclusive ==

The Wiki page makes the assumption that StudioMDHR did this completely solo. However, it is clear that Microsoft funded the game and is further an exclusive to Microsoft (indefinitely). Notable involvement should be part of this page, as it is on other pages when indie games partner with a major publisher, as it changes the perspective that it is a Microsoft exclusive that is majority-funded by Microsoft. For example, Halo Wars was made by Ensemble Studios and their page has significant mentions of Microsoft's involvement.

:Sources make no mention of Microsoft funding, other possibilities include higher royalties or bonuses paid by MS post-release, but that would also be an assumption. After all, they sold their own homes to finish this game, which does not sound like major outside funding.

The following line:
"''Cuphead''{{'}}s gameplay is based around continuous [[boss fight]]s,"

Should be replaced with
''Cuphead''{{'}}s gameplay is based around continual [[boss fight]]s,

== Still not the first to use old animation cells ==

Technically speaking, even though this game is well polished and overly ambitious.  It's still not the first to use old animation cells for gameplay. 
Escape from Cartoon Hell which was a free game using the openbor program,  used old ub iwerks animation cells and backgrounds.  It was crude and poorly made, but the concept was there... you also had to fight a devil character in hell... this was made in 2006/2007 and the YouTube upload date for this game proves it.

== Tesla cars are not a platform for the infobox ==

Keeping in mind that Tesla's OS runs a Linux variant, and secondly that only part of the game is coming as a proof of concept, it is not appropriate to add Tesla as a platform here. We can mention this proof of concept in the body. --[[User:Masem|M<span style="font-variant: small-caps">asem</span>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 02:14, 3 June 2019 (UTC)

I think in legacy there should at least be a mention of how there was a cuphead Arby's deal to have toys in the kid's meals based on the game  <!-- Template:Unsigned --><small class="autosigned">—&nbsp;Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Pwiva1|Pwiva1]] ([[User talk:Pwiva1#top|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Pwiva1|contribs]]) 19:23, 12 October 2020 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Split the Cuphead Show to a separate article? ==

I was just wondering if we should split the animated series paragraph to a full article since we have info about the show, footage from the show and some knowledge about when it will be released. [[User:LittleMAHER1|LittleMAHER1]] ([[User talk:LittleMAHER1|talk]]) 05:02, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
:Would not recommend this until we have a firm date of when the show is to first be broadcast, or unless a major info dump about the new show becomes available. As there's not much more you can yet expand on that paragraph until more info is available. --[[User:Masem|M<span style="font-variant: small-caps">asem</span>]] ([[User Talk:Masem|t]]) 06:03, 30 March 2021 (UTC)
