When Chip Tuned Rockman was first announced by Inti Creates, I was pretty amazed. It’s by far the most unique Rockman album that Inti Creates has come up with yet, and being a lover of 80s and early 90s video game music, I was excited about the style it was going for. Having been able […]

It’s almost October, and it won’t be long before the fury of Winter is raining down upon us like Ice Man with a sneezing fit. So what better way to prepare your fleshy noggin for the cold days ahead than with a cold-weather cap fashioned in the appearance of those lovable Bonne foot-soldiers, the Servbots? […]

Tokyo Game Show 2009 has come and gone, and to close up our coverage we have a report from MMN reader Fireman, who was fortunate enough to get to attend the event and try his hand with some of the Rockman EXE Operate Shooting Star demos on hand. So we shall tie up our TGS […]

Perhaps this needs a better name. At any rate, Tokyo Game Show is going on as you know, and now it’s open to the public. The purpose of this post is to collect details from peoples’ reports back about what went down. This post will be updated and bumped as needed with new information. And […]

Running on nearly 22 years now, there are a lot of Mega Man games out there. A lot are good, some are legendary, and some just kind of stink. However, there is an unwritten rule, so to speak, that Mega Man gets better the second time around. The most obvious of these examples is Mega […]

If you’ve played the MegaMan Legends series, you know that MegaMan Volnutt isn’t the only MegaMan around. There was MegaMan Juno, who ended up being the primary enemy of the first title.

Over the many, many months leading up to its release, fans across the world kept their eyes on the official Super Smash Bros. Brawl website, the Smash Bros. DOJO!! (their emphasis), in the hopes that Capcom’s famed Blue Bomber would join the fight alongside fellow third-party heroes Sonic the Hedgehog and Solid Snake, of Metal […]

As we’re all no doubt aware by now, Capcom Head of Research & Development and Online Business, to say nothing of the Man behind Mega Man, Keiji Inafune, seems to have become quite fed-up with the Japanese gaming industry. Recently, he’s even been seen hanging out with Halo developer Bungie Studios to pick up a […]

As I’ve mentioned before, Game Center CX is one of my favorite television shows about games. Starring Shin’ya Arino, a Japanese comedic personality, who does various game related segments such as talking to game developers and visiting game centers. But the most popular segment, which became the focus of the show, is Arino’s Challenge, which […]

If the revival of the Battle Network series via Operate Shooting Star has got you excited, well, you may have reason to continue being excited.

It appears that this year’s Tokyo Game Show did very little to win over Capcom’s Head of Research & Development and Online Business, Keiji Inafune. During the following video, he asks the crowd in attendance what they thought of the show this year. “Be honest, ” he says. “Did it suck, or was it great […]

GoNintendo and GameDaily have rallied their collective might to look back upon the nearly 800-strong library of the Nintendo Entertainment System and select but a mere ten titles to be the best.
