Capcom Store to Sell RM9 OST
Dec 19, 2008 | Mega Man
This image from the Capcom-Unity blog's whiteboard would certainly indicate Capcom USA is planning to sell the Rockman 9 Original Soundtrack on their online store. Since it's the Rockman 9 soundtrack (as opposed to the Mega Man 9 soundtrack), it seems the albums will...

They grow up so fast
Dec 17, 2008 | Community Developments, Mega Man
Indeed they do. Ok, I'm jumping the proverbial December 17th gun a little bit, but technically it's already the 17th in the East. That's right, our beloved Mega Man / Rockman has turned 21. Mega Man's 20th year came with some big surprises, with Mega Man 9's true...

The rumors, the rumors
Dec 16, 2008 | Community Developments
There's been a lot of discussion about a new Rockman title in the works lately. Unfortunately, it's a lot of discussion based on smoke. I haven't seen much of anything that proves the accuracy of what's been going around, including small snippets taken from Japanese...

Rating the Robot Masters
Dec 16, 2008 | Community Developments
I think we can all agree that the Robot Masters in a Mega Man game play a big role in how well that game is regarded. Gaming analyst Sean Malstrom has a pretty lengthy article which seeks to rank each Robot Master from the first eight Mega Man titles and see if the...

Mega Man vs. Secret Agent Man
Dec 12, 2008 | Mega Man
This clip has been making the rounds a bit lately, and I just wanted to give it a proper display here for those who might not have seen it. Mega Man has never had the strongest TV commercial presence here in North America. While magazine ads have been plentiful, and...

What Happens if Wily Attacks with All 8 Robot Masters at Once
Dec 11, 2008 | Community Developments
For as long as Mega Man has been around, there have been certain questions, certain bright ideas about how things are done. Things like "why not put those instant-kill spikes everywhere?" or "why not make a Robot Master completely out of Mettaur metal?" And while some...

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Opening & New Footage
Dec 10, 2008 | Mega Man
Fairly standard Tatsunoko vs. Capcom update, with one exception: This time, we've got the opening for the Wii version, which of course features none other than the Legend-ary MegaMan Volnutt himself, as well as the original Roll: Tatsunoko vs. Capcom Wii Opening If I...

Ryuusei no Rockman Animation Model Sheets on eBay
Dec 7, 2008 | Community Developments
We normally don't promote eBay auctions here on the front page, unless it's something truly unique and out of the ordinary. And while model sheets for animation are sort of a middle ground, the fact that these are on eBay instead of some Japanese Yahoo! auction site...

Rumor: Nintendo Dream to Reveal New Rockman in February
Dec 5, 2008 | Mega Man
This one's something of a rumor that goes around the block, so try to stick with me here. Allegedly, there has been a thread on 2ch recently which says that the latest issue of Nintendo Dream magazine promises that they will unveil a "secret" Rockman title in their...

Animal Crossing Mega Man costumes
