Click to enlarge. That’s right, this auction for a third-series Rockman X3 “Factory Figure D” set, said to be a rare item by the seller, is available for the next day and a half for a starting bid of $700 (plus $15 for shipping if you win). It is an interesting find, brought to our […]

Today has brought some most unexpected news, as we have learned that Seth “S-Kill” Killian is leaving Capcom, with his final day to be this Friday, June 22nd. Though limited in what he could do (i.e. you couldn’t just tell him “bring back Legends 3 and expect him to do it), Seth has long been […]

After four long years of work, The Megas’ Mega Man 3 inspired album History Repeating: Blue will release on June 30th for $10. It is the first of two albums based on 3. A couple years back we interviewed The Megas on our podcast and got to sample one of their tracks, the Spark Man […]

While Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 did little to sate the desires of those who specifically wanted to see an actual Blue Bomber representing their favorite franchise, there is no denying that the Mega Man series has had a strong presence overall in the Marvel vs. Capcom series as a […]

The Game Boy Mega Man games have some of my favorite music in the series, though in truth the tunes are often overlooked by fans and musicians. So thank goodness that Blues ‘Chaos’ Light has cooked up his own arranged EP, featuring a track from each game. You can listen to the songs above, or […]

This is pretty offbeat for Mega Man news, but then what isn’t these days? Over the weekend, voice actor Koichi Yamadera announced on the internet that he became wed to Rie Tanaka. Ms. Tanaka (or, perhaps Mrs. Yamadera now) of course is well known to us for providing the voice of Ciel in the Mega […]

Going through some photos, I happened across this one I took at a used game store somewhere in Osaka. It’s a promotional flyer for Rockman 2, back before the game came out. Sadly it’s not a real poster, but a print out from a scan or photo (but I might ask for a copy all […]

This one snuck up on us; Capcom Unity is continuing their series of weekly livestreams of Mega Man games leading up to the Blue Bomber’s 25th anniversary with Mega Man 6, and by tuning in to their Twitch TV Channel today at 2pm PST, you’ll have the opportunity to win some of the nifty Japanese […]

A lot of stuff has been coming out of Archie lately regarding their Mega Man comic book series, and here’s one more for the pile. Comic Book Resources has a six-page preview of issue #14, part two of the “Spiritus ex Machina” story arc. From the description: It’s pandemonium as the Emerald Spears extremist group […]

Perhaps you remember one of the more substantial Mega Man inspired fan games, Rokko Chan, from late last year. If not, well, you should probably check it out (it’s actually pretty good). The game is completely free despite its 2 year development. But you can still show your support and get handsomely rewarded at the […]

Better late than never, wouldn’t you say? Japan having received the game late last year, and Europe getting a hold just a couple weeks ago, now folks in North America can finally enjoy Mega Man X2 on the Wii’s Virtual Console service. Like many SNES games, just drop 800 Wii Points and it’s yours. To […]
