Hey PlayStation owners in North America and Europe. You may be freaking out over the announcements for the Sony Move, but don’t forget that Mega Man 10 is coming on the PlayStation Network today. The game will run you a scant $9.99, and deliver plenty of retro action love. TMMN Staff

Last weekend, Amazon and other online book retailers began offering books like Mega Man Official Complete Works for the cutthroat price of $14.99. A pretty good deal, but not a deal that was intended to happen. And while Amazon honored the orders at first, it seems that may not be the case anymore. Staffer Maverick-Jin […]

The launch dates for Rockman 10’s downloadable content has been revealed, and continuing the trend they’re getting the goods slightly after us. At least according to an information page from the Wii, Forte Mode and and Special Stage 1 will be available on April 9th, Friday, while Endless Attack Mode and Special Stages 2 and […]

It has been a long, bumpy road since first announcing The Mega Man Network’s “What am I Fighting For?!” Contest, but finally, all the pieces are in place and we can bring this thing to an end. When Jaxel first told me about the acquisition he had made for us to use as a prize […]

A few days ago, we brought you the Japanese trailer which shows off Rockman’s rival, Forte, kicking ‘bot and taking names as only he can in the special downloadable content for Rockman 10. And now, thanks to Capcom Unity, there is an English version of Bass breaking the walls down in Mega Man 10. It’s […]

Last week, we reported that Capcom and Nintendo would be celebrating the March 1st WiiWare release of Mega Man 10 after-the-fact at the Nintendo World Store at Rockefeller Plaza in New York. Of course, save for the most devoted (with plenty of spare cash and the ability to make long road-trips on short notice), there […]

Mega Man mastermind Keiji Inafune has had his chance to answer questions from the fans… twice, even. Now, it’s time for the maestro of Mega Man Megamix to take his turn at bat, courtesy of the Capcom Unity and the Blue Bomber’s 22nd birthday celebration held back in December of last year. Here is what […]

Following their “Welcome to 20XX” article from earlier last week, GameSpite Quarterly 3 has added a new article about Mega Man to their character profiles, which give a sort of VH1 Behind the Music-styled look at the history of some of gaming’s greatest (and not-so great) characters. This time, in the odd company of Frogger […]

For those unaware, Kirby Krackle is a “Nerd Rock Band” based in Seattle, WA. The duo writes songs about the things they love: “comic books, video games, zombies, girls and more”. Their latest song, now streamable on their site, is titled “Take it from me” and is about the blue bomber himself, Mega Man. The […]

You may remember, some months ago, Hitoshi Ariga held a “Mob Robo” contest for his upcoming comic Rockman Gigamix Vol. 2. Basically, Ariga accepted entries for throwaway characters created by fans, who would appear briefly in the comic and then get destroyed. Truth be told I kind of forgot about the contest, even after Gigamix […]

Much attention has been paid to the large, triptych box art for Mega Man 10, which once more follows in the footsteps of the art for the release of the original games on the NES some 20+ years ago. Likewise, Capcom of Japan has continued to emulate the style used for the original Famicom Rockman […]

For those out there who bemoan the 8-bit retro chic look of Mega Man 9 and 10, I’d just like to point this out to you: it could be worse. Of course I don’t mean to disparage the work of Eric Ruth, the man behind this fan-made HD remake of Mega Man 9, and also […]
