Mega Man
Contest prize update; Capcom*Unity sweetens the pot
Hey there you Mega Man loving folks. There's been an intriguing update to our Mega Man Star Force 3 artwork contest. First of all, though, I'd like to give you a peek at our grand prize offering. Check out the picture* below. Pretty cool to say the least. BUT IT GETS...
New Line of Mega Man Figures Coming Soon?
The above image is what greets visitors to the Jazwares website and click on the part of the left sidebar which reads "New Line of Figures" under the Mega Man brand tag. Sadly, further details are few and far between, with only the following statement accompanying the...
Check out Mega Man orchestral style – Video Games Live
As we reported, a Mega Man segment was featured for the first time in Video Games Live when it performed yesterday in Los Angela's Greek Theater. Featuring the opening theme to Mega Man 2, the title theme from Mega Man 3 and of course the trademark Wily's stage from...
A sign of Mega Man Legends 3? *Updated*
File this one under curiously hopeful. Gaming news site N4G has listings for Mega Man Legends 3 under both PlayStation 3 and XBox 360. I'm not much a traverser of N4G myself so I'm not sure how these things pan out there, but then again recall how Mega Man 9 began...
Mega Man 2 and 3 music to premiere at Video Games Live tomorrow
If you live in or near Los Angeles, California, and you're feeling impulsive, why not grab some tickets to tomorrow's Video Game Live performance and catch some premiere music from Mega Man 2 and 3! According to Joystiq, the show will take place at the Greek Theater...
Star Force 3 at E3 – the rest of the content
Within this post we've included the fact sheet, screen shots and artwork Capcom prepared to exhibit Mega Man Star Force 3 for E3 this year. It's not a whole lot really, though the screen shots demonstrate each version's "ultimate form" pretty nicely. Have yourself a...
Mega Man Star Force 3 E3 2009 trailer
Here we have a nice new trailer for Mega Man Star Force 3 Black Ace and Red Joker, direct from Capcom's E3 content. Shows off quite a bit of gameplay action, though curiously everything is still in Japanese (except for the logos). Ah well, still a great look at the...
Mega Man defends the seas in Mega Man Rush Marine
In the series' continuing quest to be unpredictable, Mega Man Rush Marine takes Mega Man and his canine companion's submersible form to defend the waters from the evil Dr. Wily. I'd almost not believe it myself except that the retro-styled shooter is slated for...
Korea Get Mugged by Servbots
It's usually Japan who gets all the fun stuff, but not this time. Now, we can curse Korea for getting the greatest coffee mugs ever: Ironically, as you can see, the Servbot mugs aren't to promote a new Mega Man Legends game, nor even Marvel vs. Capcom 2's impending...
Mega Man 5 Game Boy Promo Video
Now here's something interesting: An old promotional video blurb for Mega Man 5 on the Game Boy and Super Game Boy: Interesting timing, I must say, as this past weekend a Anime North, I finally managed to acquire that one for a mere ten dollars. No box or booklet, but...
FUNimation and Mega Man: Together at Last?
It seems that Anime Boston has brought some new and unexpected news to the world of Mega Man. Word has it that FUNimation, most famously (as well as infamously) for their use of the North American Dragon Ball anime license, reportedly announced at the convention that...
Roll Pwnz Genies, Capcom Pwnz Roll
The original Mega Man's sister, Roll, has had her foot dipped in the fighting game genre for some time now, thanks to the Marvel VS. Capcom titles, but things were shaken up a bit as she joined the Tatsunoko VS. Capcom roster. In Capcom's latest VS. title, Roll...
Inafune isn’t going to the Nordic Game conference after all
Blame the pigs! Just kidding. The Nordic Game conference has confirmed that Inafune can't attend due to Capcom's rules concerning foreign travel during the H1N1 epidemic/pandemic. While it's a regrettable development and is quite disappointing for fans of his...
Tatsunoko vs Capcom America Bound!
In a completely shocking turn of events, Capcom has decided to bring over this mishmash cross over fighting game outside of Japan. Found here on GoNintendo, it appears that the July issue of Nintendo Power will be featuring a story on the english edition of this...
Jazwares Speaks on Future of Mega Man Figure Line
Since the last wave of Jazwares' Mega Man action figure line, which featured characters such as Cut Man, Proto Man, Command Mission Mega Man X, and Rush, as well as their "Retro Roto" figures modeled after the oldschool art style, the company had seemingly gone silent...
I’m a Flash Man
Caught this one over on GoNintendo. These songs are more than 20 years apart, but they may have more in common than you think. Give 'em a listen and see for yourself. Of course, there are a few well known cases of Mega Man music sounding like other music from the...
Happy Birthday Inafune!!
Pop the bubbly and cut the cake, because good ol' Keiji Inafune, creator of our beloved Mega Man, is celebrating his 44th birthday. Wow, 44 years old. That means for nearly half of his life, Inafune has been working on Mega Man (of course for many of us, it's an even...
“What? Mega Man’s Taken Over the Bomb?!”
Ah, now here's yet another blast from the past, one which I bet fewer Mega Man fans are familiar with. Many of us remember the Ruby-Spears Mega Man animated series which ran in syndication, went to Fox Family, then was released on DVD and then re-released on DVD again...
Capcom’s legacy surprise: 20 to 40 PS1 & PSP games coming to PSN
Just when you thought Capcom couldn't be releasing more games this year, they go and tell Joystiq they're aiming for another 20 to 40 PSOne and PSP games to be released in the next few months. With that large a number, there's bound to be at least one Mega Man game in...
Famitsu: Rockman DASH/X among sequels Japanese want most
The latest issue of Famitsu contained a reader survey of which game series people want most. And wouldn't you know it, of the fifty games included in the list, both Rockman DASH and Rockman X landed on the list. In fact, they placed fairly high, with Rockman DASH...
