“Bring me chopper backup!” -Commander Feral, The S.W.A.T. Kats —————————————- How many robots does it take to do a full frontal assault on a heavily fortified Skull Castle? Answer: How many do you have? In Dr. Light’s case, he has a full playset with Elec Man and the Sunshine Seven. Fresh to the force are […]

As we all know, Bluefin Tamashii Nations and Bandai like their polls, including those which tell them what Mega Man fans want from the seven different series and their respective casts which comprise the franchise. They’ve gathered information via Facebook as well as the New York Comic-Con, though the latter may have presented a bit […]

The cover story featured this week on 1UP is all about Gaming’s Greatest Mysteries, and none other than Editor-in-Chief Jeremy Parish chooses to ponder one which has remained near and dear to many of us over the years: “What Happened Before Mega Man X?“ We’ve all had our theories, and as the article points out, […]

Last week, news from Famitsu App indicated that the iOS social RPG Rockman Xover may be releasing sometime soon. Some new details indicates that is very much the case. According to the latest issue of Dengeki Game App, Rockman Xover is expected to release sometime in the tail end of October, i.e. the last third […]

Knock knock, our faithful fans across the Atlantic. Your 3DS is about to get a dose of classic Mega Man.

So far as we’ve heard, there hasn’t really been much “news,” per se, about Archie’s Mega Man comic to come out of New York Comic-Con 2012. However, there was a little bit of talk about the upcoming crossover with Sonic the Hedgehog and Sonic Universe, “Worlds Collide.” Well, we’re assuming there was talk. But honestly, […]

Mega Man taking a political stand for equal marriage rights? And with Mario, no less? Well, not exactly… Rock Miyabi dropped us a line about the recent Minnesota State Fair, which had a contest for crop/seed art and a special division for political stands against a proposed state marriage amendment. The artist, Mark Dahlager, took […]

We’ve known for some time that Archie’s Mega Man and Sonic the Hedgehog crossover story arch was planned to debut in 2013, and the above flier narrows that time frame down a bit. This image is of a promotional ad given out by Archie at the recent New York Comic Con, and while it’s rather […]
