Today at Comic-Con, during a Megaman Universe panel, Inafune let loose that many more Mega Man announcements are coming this year, and confirmed that an "oft-requested thing that we all want" is coming to fruition. The crowd immediately began to shout for "Mega Man Legends 3, to which Inafune replied with a swift "Thank You."
So 99% chance this is really happening. Really.

A megaman x9 that takes place during the elf wars could be cool, too.

^ I'd also want that, a handheld version of MM 9 and 10 (with all DLC content in), and a final Star Force game (no pokemon syndrome) all on 3DS.
I'm not really believing this is gonna happen though until it's actually announced, like MvC3.

I haven't played the MML games since '05, when I abandoned all hope for a threequel.

I could never make it passed the one boss on Megaman Legends 1 against Bon Bonne or whatever his name was. Never had the second one but goddammit if this is real I'll beat this one twice over to make up for 1 and 2.

Kaji: Very minimalist, though the Mettool helmet is a nice touch.
Ishikawa: Seems more of an NPC design than a lead character.
Itou: Minimalism extended to clothing, meh.
Inafune: Roll as a go-go girl and big hair. Pass
Higarashi: Likely to be Usa's choice  . Doesn't wow me enough though.
Suetsugu: Would make a cool cosplay option, the headband with feathers reminds me of Tomahawk man. She seems to have a lead character vibe. Probably my vote.
Komaki: It's a toss up between Suetsugu's and this one. I can see both as lead characters.
Yoshikawa: Yeah, pass.
Nakayama: Seems like Yoshikawa and this one are close friends or something. They seem too similar in style and I don't care much for either.

They all look like rejects from Pokemon.

I'd agree, but not Suetsugu's, which me reminds me more of 90's anime with some 2000's flair in there (which is why I voted for that) or Itou's (ugh) which looks like it came from a failed Cartoon Network original show.
Also, here's a very early look at the game itself: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNll7j-qWLA (can't embed on mobile phone)

Kaji and Nakayama are my favorites. Inafune is in the third place.

 You should totally check out the IRC channel.
While you're at it, go check out my band, Her Majesty's Heroines.

Don't know if you're being serious or not but if you are it's a little too early to screaming "RUINED FOREVER" there, when we haven't seen the damn game in action yet! They're fucking concept art. At least the one on the middle right, the only not-bad looking design there, is winning.
Anyway, some more news ( source), along with other things I picked up from around the internets:
- Capcom is trying to get the original voice actors back (Teisel Bonne's English VA was specifically mentioned iirc)
- story is still in development
- game will continue after the events of Legends 2
- Capcom is considering having fans that are writers come up with "episodes" for the game
- the new female character is just as important as Roll or Tron
- MML3 is on 3DS because Capcom felt the game would work well on the platform, and they believe it easy to develop for
- touch screen will be used
- familiar and new mechanics
- some of the Monster Hunter team will be working on this game
- cast images coming very soon
- Tron and the Servbots are back
- might be more servbots this time around
- unlikely Mega Man 64 will hit the VC (but they are looking into re-releasing Legends 1 and 2 on PSN)
Hopefully the fan writing thing (if they go through with it) is only a platform for the team for bounce ideas off of and such, I'm sure Inafune and co. care too much about the game to have fans shit it up like that.

FNJ is joking, I could tell.
I happen to know good deal about the VA business. The MML VAs are Canadian B-listers and I just so happen to live in their territory. Teisel's VA, Rob Smith, is the top name on that list.

whats wrong with megaman as maincharacter? Why these cheap, faceless designs that don't remind me of megaman in anyway. Why do they need to deface a classic. Why! WHY! WHY!!!!
hey guys, ear is back.

The winning design isn't meant to replace Megaman (or anyone else), you idiot.
