“Everything Wrong is Right Again”
Just wanted to pass along word of an interesting article by Jeremy "Toastyfrog" Parish, as he looks at the upcoming Mega Man 9 and points out the merits of the return to 8-bit, and how it may very well be a good thing for the industry at large.
Victims of success
You may have had a bit of trouble accessing MMN in the past few days. It appears we're still getting traffic ever since having unleashed Mega Man 9 upon the world, and the server is having a hard time accounting for all the added activity. We're hoping this is...
Mega Man 9 Page Up
I started working on this yesterday, but here it is: Mega Man 9 Speculation page @ The Mega Man Network. This page will cover, in detail, any type of information surrounding this news of a "Mega Man 9" release from Capcom. Sourced and documented information, detailed...
Music Update: Japanese singing edition
Boy, been a while since I did one of these, huh? Truth is, I've been working on a lot of other stuff on the site, stuff I haven't posted about but stuff nonetheless, like artwork and game info. But right now it's music time. For starters, our music archive now has ZX...
Mega Man Matrix is BACK!
Well... Kind of. Apparently, Dr. Wily has taken over their site, but allowed the community forum to stay in tact. Those lucky devils... Anyway, if you were wondering about them, you're welcome. They plan on making a comeback soon, keep an eye on them.
Wily Does It Himself
Despite the fact I'm a superbly funny guy, I don't get into jokey internet videos too much, especially game-related ones. Today however, I came across "The Last Days Of Dr. Wily," which I think is not only funny but very well written and acted. Considering the fairly...
Rockman + Earthbound = Earth Man? And RPM Is Copying Us!
Yeah, you read right! Rockman Perfect Memories, The site that USED to be cool went and-- No, I'm kidding. They have a cool little surprise that was added to the site. More on that after the trailer for Earth Man Earth Man Video Yes, you read right. Earth Man. A combo...
The Megas: Saving the World, One Song at a Time
With bands like The Protomen, fans of Mega Man and lovers of music have been able to hear abridged stories of their favorite little blue man in tights for quite some time now. There's another band wanting to make a foray into this scene. Aptly named The Megas, they...
Crisis Averted!
As you may have noticed, The Mega Man Network is no longer active. Due to some large TMMN staff losses including Lord Black Draco, TheDivine, Sylvester, and RockNRoll, it was agreed to reconvert every ounce of data under the Atomic Fire name. Come back often, since...
Musical Potpourri
Decided to get a little more music in the Music Archive while working on various other things. This update includes the soundtracks to Mega Man Battle & Chase, Mega Man: Maverick Hunter X and Mega Man Legends. Also debuting is some fan music from some more...
Music Update: Bleep Bloop Edition
Today's additions to the Music Archive feature games that all hail from that little handheld that dominated the world: the Game Boy. Seven total soundtracks for you chiptune lovers, covering Mega Man and Mega Man X. If you're not much a fan of square and triangle...
Another Dose of Music-y Goodness
Because I know you folks can never get enough. For starters, we have game rips from Mega Man 7 and Mega Man 8 (the Saturn version). These are meant to compliment the original soundtracks that were released late last year. In addition to those we also put up the game...
Random’s “MegaRan” Interview and Music! 02/03/2008
A few months ago, we were contacted by Random, a rapper wanting to promote his Mega Man influenced music. If this looks familiar to you, you may have seen or heard of him via Atomic Fire's forum during the summer before we merged. I had heard one or two tracks at that...
Music from the Air Waves
It's been a little while, hasn't it? Well you music-hungry folks can sit back, because Splashman has provided the Ryuusei no Rockman 1&2 official soundtrack in our Music Archive. Of course this replaces the earlier game rips of those titles, which is sad sure, but...
Teleportation GET?
Not yet, at least. In reaction to the upcoming movie Jumper, Star Wars star Hayden Christensen, Doug Linman (director of the movie) and MIT professor discuss the possibility of teleportation of humans. While it has been done with protons (being able to be moved two...

Mega Man 2/Taser Death Parody Has Canadian Officials Up In Arms
It was not too long ago when Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski found himself at the mercy of Royal Canadian Mounted Police officials in a Vancouver airport, wherein the men resorted to using tasers which seemingly brought Dziekanski's life to a tragic end. Since...
Wanna Be A Star, Man? Be a Robot Master, or something more, in a fan movie
Ok, so if there's anything that most video game movies have taught us, it's that turning a video game into a live action production usually doesn't go well. Especially if the property was cartoon in origin. At the very least, liberties are very likely to be taken. And...
It’s over 2,000!!
As you may know one of my main jobs here is moving over content from... err... that one site I was at before this one. I forget the name. At any rate I've been on that, and so far so good. Tonight I'm happy to announce that the combined content of the Official Art...
