I don’t really know who Lady Gaga is– her name sounds like a broken transmission in Bionic Commando to me. But apparently, she’s a musician of some kind whose presence has managed to permeate the mainstream to a significant degree. At least, that’s the gist I get from Capcom*Unity’s “For the 0.3% of the population […]

No, this is not a rant about how Mega Man is always in underwear… This is about actual clothes with Mega Man inspired clothes. I was ready to blast how corny and foul MM clothing is and how you’ll probably get laughed at in public if you’re seen wearing it. Then I looked some stuff […]

We’ve heard Mega Man creator discuss how Mega Man 3 is one of his least-favorite games in the series, due mainly to the team’s inability to do everything with it that they had hoped before the product had to ship. Nonetheless, development of the title still saw some interesting changes from its early stages to […]

Ah, memories. Once upon a time, as the Super Nintendo Entertainment System was in its infancy, there was no Mega Man X, only Mega Man, and with heroes like Mario and Simon Belmont making the leap to Nintendo’s 16-bit platform, I don’t think any of us at the time imagined that eventually, a new hero […]

For this decade, which is swiftly coming to a close, Inti Creates has been a major component to the Mega Man franchise. Starting in 2002 they developed the Mega Man Zero series with Capcom and then followed with Mega Man ZX. They were also behind the unexceptionally received Mega Man Battle Chip Challenge. But of […]
