You may remember aaaaaaallll the way back from San Diego Comic Con, Capcom teased a competition between the Mega Man figureheads of Capcom Unity and Rockman Unity: Joveth “jgonzo” Gonzalez vs. Ucchy-san. For whatever reason it’s taken this long, but the results are finally coming out on Rockman Unity. Above is the first heated match […]

Over at the Japan side of the Legends 3 devroom, Capcom of Japan is opening a voting poll for Aero’s (aka Sephira here) voice talent. Three potential actresses have been selected, but their names and personal information will not be published. Instead, users will vote based solely on the sound samples available. Each user has […]

Though it’s been the 17th in Japan for sometime now, Mega Man is officially 23 today. Culturally, I guess there’s nothing real significant about age 23, but this 23rd year for Mega Man has been anything but dull. First, the games. Even though they seem like such a long time ago, we did get a […]

I have to give props to anyone who goes to the effort of immortalizing me in sculpture. A fellow by the name Awasai has created a variety of Ariga-styled Robot Master effigies for you to enjoy. Only thing I could ever make in clay is rainbow colored spaghetti, and I had a convenient press device […]

As we approach the celebration of Mega Man’s 23rd, I felt it would be appropriate to take a look back at one of Mega Man’s most well received outings. Mega Man 2 was a phenomenal title in every regard, and can certainly be thanked the most for propelling Mega Man to becoming a timeless classic. […]

As reported by Andriasang, while it’s still uncertain what Keiji Inafune’s future plans are, he is starting to hand out business cards labeled with a new company: Comcept. This comes from a tweet by a video game analyst in Japan who had a run in with Mr. Inafune. Considering all the different areas of entertainment […]

It is decided. The winner of the Bonne mecha design contest is Donner Wels, coming from the Japan side of the Devroom. The entrant of this design may actually be someone familiar to you, he goes by CAP Kobun. We credit CAP’s online journal here at TMMN quite a bit. Omedetou gozaimasu, CAP Kobun!! I […]

If you’re still out looking for holiday gifts for pals, truth be told you’re hitting crunch time pretty quick here. And truth be told, shopping online becomes something of a gamble now as we approach Christmas. But if you’re willing to take a risk, or you have friends who won’t take a belated gift personally, […]

Kotobukiya’s Roll figure kit should be released in a matter of weeks if not days. As a sign of its impending production, a hobby magazine has released some shots of the figure crafted with a test run of the mass production parts. This should give you an idea of what to expect when you make […]

We are nearing the completion of another phase of Mega Man Legends 3 fan-assisted development. The finalists have been decided, both for the Japanese devroom and the Capcom Unity devroom. Over 250 entries were received on the Capcom Unity side, and I’m pretty sure there were over 600 Japanese entries, last I heard. Now, it […]

Following yesterday’s announcement of UDON’s upcoming Mega Man Tribute compilation art book, we noticed there were some concerns among those of you interested in contributing or simply purchasing the book. As such, we brought these before them to find out some answers, hopefully putting some issues to rest once and for all (and hopefully avoiding […]

David Stanworth wrote to inform us that artist Josh Mirman’s “Wordy” Mega Man “Super Fighting Robot” shirt we wrote about previously can apparently be had at Shark Robot for $17.95, and in more sizes than LevelUpStudios has available. And if that weren’t enough, for the same price, fans of the older robo-bro can get their […]
