If you’ve been looking forward to Kotobukiya’s Mega Man model kits, but haven’t felt like importing or would just rather they be Mega Man branded, you should head on over to the Capcom Store.

When UDON announced the Mega Man Tribute book, every Mega Man fan artist had a stroke. Right there on the spot. Once medics were called and the artists revived, thousands got to work on their entries. UDON had over 3000 entries. Sadly, being a 300 page book, not everyone got a chance to get in. […]

You may recall earlier this year the Smithsonian American Art Museum was running a vote for games to showcase in their 2012 Art of Video Games exhibit. Eighty titles have been selected to represent the various systems and generations of gaming over the past 30 years. Mega Man 2 was a contender for NES action […]

Just a quick note for those of you who are getting the first issue of Mega Man from Archie… The original solicitation for the book stated that the comic was to arrive at comic shops today, May 4th. And following that, a number of stories on this site (including last week’s “Countdown” features) followed that […]

Last month, Siliconera ran an article with some talk from Capcom’s Seth Killian, admitting that some people internal to Capcom of Japan didn’t view Mega Man as being especially popular in the U.S. Since then, a thread at Capcom Unity was opened on the matter and both Christian Svensson and Seth Killian have elaborated further.

And you might notice… it’s not terribly too different! Indeed, Calamity has such a unique and fascinating design […]

Click to enlarge. Some of you may have seen the above image passed around. It’s amusing, as well as interesting, in that it essentially takes what we all know of Dr. Thomas Light, and puts a unique and entertaining spin on it. Over at Destructoid, Tony Ponce has gone in the exact opposite direction, taking […]

Mega Man Legends 3 Prototype Version is expected to hit late this month with the launch of the Nintendo 3DS eShop. With so much excitement surrounding the game, we just had to do a contest for it! So what would you expect? Have us buy the Prototype Version for you as a prize? Eh, I […]
