After only a week of being available, Rockman Xover is patting itself on the back for surpassing 100,000 registered players. To commemorate the milestone, users are receiving a free premium Gacha ticket (for redeeming one premium card), and an […]

In this case, because Dr. […]

After months of watching the last few remaining grains of sand fall through the hourglass, the time has finally come, and I still don’t know what to say as the final issue of Nintendo Power magazine– Volume 285, December 2012– is officially on its way and now reaching the hands of subscribers. I’ve received mine, […]

Yeah, this is kind of old news… in more ways than one. When we first saw this video, we were hopeful before realizing that yes, we did know all of this. And it seemed to us that odds are that anyone who visits a site like this with any regularity probably does, too. But then […]

For the first time ever, the final title in the NES series Mega Man 6 will be released in digital form – at least in Japan for now. Rockman 6: The Greatest Battle in History!! will become available on the Japanese eShop for ¥500, next week on the 12th. Japanese fans will now be able […]

A while back we reported singer Reika Morishita was collecting Mega Man Legends artwork from fans. And this compilation image is the result of those efforts. You can see a much larger version here. In truth this was intended to be the cover for her recently announced CD release of her arranged theme songs. However, […]

Alongside ROCKMAN HOLIC, We are ROCK-MEN! 2 releases in Japan this month on the 19th. And now thanks to Famitsu, we have the full track list plus some other details: TMMN Staff

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Classic series. For this entry, I’ll be looking Mega Man 7, famous for being the first original series game to go beyond 8-bits and the first game to […]

Now here’s an arrangement I can really get behind! Chiptune artist RushJet1 (whose work has been featured on the album Chiptuned Rockman), brings us a chiptune arrangement of Mega Man 3‘s superb soundtrack nine months in the making. But wait, doesn’t MM3 already have chip programmed music? That’s the thing, this arrangement uses Konamis VRC6 […]
