TMMN Jukebox
We'll admit it: We tend to get busy, and while we do constantly check our inbox for tips, we aren't always able to get to things as quickly as we would like. This includes fan-made projects, such as performances and fan renditions of Mega Man music. We still want to...
A Look at the Rockman Wares Coming to Winter Wonder Festival ’13
The 2013 Winter Wonder Festival is taking place in Japan this weekend. The Rockman offerings seem a little sparse this time around, compared to last year's HOBBY ROCK bonanza. However, once the event kicks off, even more custom and homebrew kits may surface. For now,...
100K Strong Shoots for the Moon Again This Saturday
Just a reminder for those of you who were interested: Remember the model rocket launch organized by the Facebook group 100,000 Strong for Bringing Back Mega Man Legends 3 was going to hold last month? The same one which had to be postponed due to unfavorable weather...
An Interview with Mega Man Music Legend Manami Matsumae
A short while back, we reported to you about the development of World 1-2, a gaming inspired music album headed by Mohammed Taher, and bringing together a number of big names from game music, including original Mega Man composer Manami Matsumae. Recently, Mohammed got...
A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Ring Man
Ring Man's Stage and Music Our new enemy is Wall Blaster, who fires three shots at a time towards Mega Man and can take five hits. We also get introduced to the stage gimmick the moment we teleport in, as the floor starts to vanish underneath us. It moves from left to...
LEGO My Mega Man?
Just imagine, if you will, numerous LEGO building block playsets based on the many robots, levels, and characters of the Mega Man series. If one campaign succeeds, however, you won't have to simply imagine it-- you'll be able to purchase it for yourself. This would...
Listen to Heaps of Mega Man Music Get Genesisized
Maybe Genesisized isn't really a word, but I hardly care. Since late last year, arranger Based Renegade has been undertaking the awesome task of remixing many if not all of the classic Mega Man soundtracks into Genesis style. And as a chiptune lover, I just can't get...
Sigma on Parade at Press The Buttons
If there is one character across the Mega Man franchise who might be described as "fashionable," it would probably have to be Sigma. Think about it: With every new game, he's displayed a new look to fit the situation he's in. This has resulted in a lot of rather...
Real Life Mega Man Concept
With the present state of Mega Man, there's a lot of uncertainty and speculation where the series might go next. But a concept thought up by Yung Lee definitely steps outside the usual... and also the technically possible. Combining holograms and augmented reality,...
A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Dive Man
Dive Man's Stage and Music Lots of new enemies here! Garyoby is the buzzsaw thing at the bottom, and it moves faster when you land near it like every other enemy of its type. Metall Swim comes with an adorable snorkel and flippers. He'll fire after moving upward, and...
Mega Man V – The Replacement Stream
Last week, Capcom Unity continued their tradition of monthly Mega Man streams with Mega Man V for Game Boy. Unfortunately, the stream didn't work out well due to technical issues. But Mega Man V is one of the most unique entries into the series, and we think it's...
Mega Man Makes Lists of Greatest Sidekicks & Awesome Plot Twists
Wow, it seems like Mega Man sure is showing up on varying lists lately. Okay, so Mega Man didn't technically make the list of greatest sidekicks-- rather, two characters from Mega Man (i.e. the franchise) did, just to get that out of the way. Both Rush and Zero are on...
Game Informer Magazine Pays Tribute to Mega Man
Thanks to a tip from Mugendude26, we've learned that the latest issue of Game Informer magazine, number 238, features a special four-page section dedicated to celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Blue Bomber. Among the features included are Q&As with Keiji Inafune,...
A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Drill Man
Drill Man's Stage and Music The first section is filled with Taketentos and Metalls, with a Jumbig breaking it up in the middle. This is a good pairing, as Taketento appears close enough to the Mets to make it difficult to avoid and shoot them without also alerting...
Another Fan-Made Tribute Album to Check Out
Rockman Forever by Various When it comes to Mega Man, top notch music is one thing many think of. And that music continues to be arranged by loving fans. In that tradition, here's another 25th anniversary celebratory album, "Rockman Forever," by doujin music label...
Mega Man Battle Network: Chrono X Demo 4 Now Available
It has been six and a half years since the final installment of the Mega Man Battle Network series was released in North America, and while some fans have been content to allow the story to offer closure and move into the future with Star Force, others have wanted to...
Have a Word with Mega Man X
by Razorsaw They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. So, what does that say about a picture that's made of words? Josh Mirman has brought multiple characters to life through the use of "typography" style art, which you can see at his blog, Very Wordy...
Rock Miyabi’s FABULOUS Valentine’s Day Contest
It's that time of year again. That time after Christmas, after New Years, and you're in a rut. Well, fear no more, Rock Miyabi's annual Valentine's Day Contest is here! To those of you who are newer, my good friend Rock Miyabi hosts this contest (and a few others) on...
100,000 Strong Rocket Launch Postponed
This news is a little late in coming, but after getting some clarification on some conflicting reports, we regret to inform you that due to unfavorable weather conditions, the previously-reported rocket launch has been delayed until February 9th, pending further...
A Critical Look at Mega Man 4 Stages: Skull Man
Skull Man's Stage and Music This right here is Super Ball Machine Jr. It fires large balls that bounce from the walls, increasing in speed with each bounce. Unfortunately that feature doesn't come into play much, as walking forward while shooting is enough to handle...
