It's not all that hard to imagine why this day is one of Capcom's saddest day in its history. Famed and legendary developer Keiji Inafune has announced on his personal blog that he will finally be resigning from his position at Capcom.

The Mega Man and Dead Rising creator said that he's "in love" with Capcom, "probably more than anyone else." However, he feels that there is no more room for growth here as he has already attained the highest possible level in game development.

He began working with Capcom a whopping 23 years ago, as a character designer, and slowly but surely made his way up the corporate ladder, all the way to his soon-ex-position of head of Research & Development and Online Business and Global Head of Production.

His resignation is set to be in the clear later this month. Oh, and if you think there might be a second chance for this love affair in the future, Inafune's stressed in his farewell post that there won't be any.

To whoever will be replacing him at Capcom, good luck. You definitely have ginormous shoes to fill. And of course, to Mr. Inafune himself, may you find that growth you're still seeking for. Hey, you did say you wanted to retire early.
