How Japan Saw Rockman 2

Just a little something of interest for you: This was apparently a Japanese magazine ad of some sort (going by the filename) for the 1989 Nintendo Famicom release of Rockman 2, and was scanned from the Feburary 1989 issue of "Beep: Magazine for Game Kids" published in...

Famitsu Scores RnR3

Japanese gaming magazine Famitsu has weighed in with their score, ranking it 32/40 (all four scorers marked it 8). This is the same score both the first and second entries in the series received. Considering the second didn't wow me as much as the first, I'm wondering...

Gamekyo has a nice quality version of the commercial spot for Ryuusei no Rockman 3. It features animation by Production IG and the theme song is "stellar" by Japanese rock band KCB. Enjoy it, because if they ever advertise it here, it's "because he's blue!" News...

Mega Man Star Force 2 and Europe

I dunno how much of this is news and how much is editorializing, because when it comes to when Mega Man Star Force 2 is releasing in Europe, the answer is I'm not entirely sure. For some reason Capcom Europe often delays their portable titles, sometimes for months,...

One More Mystery in Mega Man 9

We have hard modes, harder modes, special stages, and infinite stages... and by the name of Light, we can even play as Proto Man, which has been something of a mixed bag, but generally well-received. What more could Capcom possibly throw at us? That is the question,...

Mega Man Zero 3: Other Heroes

I don't know the who, the where, the when, the how, or the whys of this, but since there are videos, I figured that it might be fun to share anyway. Some sprite hacking has been done on Mega Man Zero 3, enabling "other characters" to become playable. Those available...
