Editorial: The Game That Changed The Classic Series
Previously, I covered the concepts that made the Mega Man Classic series fun. This week, I narrow down the one pivotal game that changed that series and set it on a new direction. While Mega Man 2 introduced and refined a few overarching concepts that became series...

A Mega Man X Video Short
Andrew Goodwin of the band "Awake! Awake!" passed along to us the following video, which he and his friend Olan Rogers recently completed. Most of us are familiar by now with the opening text of the first Mega Man X game, but did you ever wonder what sort of tests Dr....

No Foolin’
We just wanted to make a post to let you all know that this year, we aren't making with the April Fool's jokes. Don't get us wrong, though, as we had ideas. Oh, did we ever have ideas. But based on reactions in the past and taking into account what the past year has...
A Critical Look at Mega Man Stages: Dr. Wily Stage 3
With Copy Mega Man out of the way, Wily Stage 3 is next. Stage 3 starts you right under a Suzy, and rest of this section is a series of drops with Suzys and Mambus. The second screen isn't dangerous, but the Suzys in the third start moving right away, so you have to...
MM Universe: Looking Back on Something Old with Something New
It's been a full year since the cancellation of Mega Man Universe. It happened to be on my birthday too, making it just a little more special! Anyway, as much as I've racked my brain, I don't have much insightful to say on the matter. Some say this marked the...
The Science of Mega Man
If there is one thing we've learned from running articles about Mega Man-ish science showing up in real life, it's that most Mega Man fans really don't care. A lesson well-learned, and we've held up a pretty good streak of not informing you how close to the robot...
Another Contest Reminder, and Some Thoughts
So once again, I really dropped the ball on a contest. Specifically our SFxT Roll artwork contest. The deadline is a couple of days, but to be honest I don't think we've received a single entry. This time I apparently forget to even list the contest among our others....
Some Element X Added to Banpresto’s Science Experiment
We've been following Banpresto's teaser for a 3DS collaboration game between Capcom, Sega and Bandai Namco Games without any real certainty what to expect, and now the stakes have raised more for Mega Man fans. A new "pixelsome" has been added to the Petri that...

Nintendolife reports that Mega Man 5 will be hitting the Wii Virtual Console this Thursday, March 29th. The NES classic that introduced us to Beat, the Super Arrow and that weird Rush Coil variation will cost 500 Wii Points. While we wait on both sides of the...
VGMM Takes a Look at Sigma’s Cut of the Mega Man X Merchandise Market
Mega Man X, Zero, Axl, and even Vile have all seen their share of figures and merchandise released sporting their names and visage (Vile's upcoming D-Arts being his third figure, at that). But when it comes to being immortalized in plastic, it seems that Sigma most...
IGN Staff Attempt to Break into the Robot Master-making Business
Recently, some of IGN's staff had an opportunity to meet real-life Mega Man father-figure Keiji Inafune. Naturally, they did what many of us have wanted to do over the years... Unfortunately for them, it seems they forgot that Inafune no longer has anything to do with...
A Critical Look at Mega Man Stages: Dr. Wily Stage 2
After the defeat of the Yellow Devil, it's on to Wily Stage 2. Stage 2 puts you in front of a gap with a Heli flying over it. Two more appear when you get to the edge, so it's best to wait for the second one to come to you before jumping. Not bad, but the same pattern...
