Mega Man 7 & Mega Man X3 Hit Europe’s Virtual Console This Week

It looks as though Japan isn’t the only one getting a bit of Blue Bomber love to digitally download (is there any other kind?) this week.

According to a report by Nintendo Insider, it seems that Mega Man 7 and Mega Man X3, which had both been made available in the North American Nintendo eShop in previous months, will be available in Europe as of the 6th of November– or today as of this writing, if our calculations are correct.

Each game will be available on the Wii U Virtual Console for the price of £5.49 (€7.99), with Mega Man 7 marking the first appearance of fan favorite rivals Bass and Treble. Meanwhile, Mega Man X3 is the first time Zero– or anyone else, really– became a playable character in a Mega Man game that wasn’t a spin-off of some sort, as well as debuting perennial 90’s fan favorite character Mac.
