Mega Man

The semiannual World Hobby Fair is kicked off in Japan, starting in Osaka this weekend. Capcom naturally had a booth, and many Rockman festivities were had. These are among some of the events which occurred via an eye witness account. Merchandise Corner: The sale of...

I don't mean to sound like a Japanophile or anything, but the commercials Capcom of Japan produces for the Rockman games are so much cooler than the ones we occasionally get in the west. I was always a big Mega Man fan, but if I'd seen these commercials as a kid...

The most recent issue of Nintendo Power features a little preview of the upcoming third installment in the Star Force series to the western world: MegaMan Star Force 3 Black Ace and Red Joker. The article only talks a little about the game's major features, and the...

With my last update on the boss contest, a handful of people were wanting to enter. This isn't uncommon, I've supported us gaijin entering the contests for a while now. So, here's what you need to do. First, as in the before post, you need to create a design with a...

With the release of Mega Man 9 and slivers of info about an all new Mega Man game in the works, fan enthusiasm has been on the rise, especially with the proposal for reviving other series. One of Capcom's big watchwords as of late has been "We'll make it if enough...

By now my predictions for the boss character contest have been pretty off, but as more details come in it's looking more like this is a boss character contest like none other before. According to our viewer Fireman, the deadline for the contest is indeed February...

Online magazine Game Informer has an interview with the man, Keiji Inafune, up for reading, and he talks a little about Mega Man among other things. (Hey, if you got to meet George Lucas, would you not talk to him about Star Wars?) A bit of his discussion includes...

In yet another one of his many opportunities to talk with Mega Man Producer Keiji Inafune (come on, share the wealth!), 1up's James Mielke talks to the Man behind the Mega about numerous Capcom topics, including what fans might expect from the Blue Bomber franchise....

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...

For years, Capcom has invited the fans of Rockman to take part in the creative process of the franchise by hosting numerous contests for boss character designs. And as revealed by the new Coro Coro magazine, it seems that the tradition is set to continue. According to...

For those with no plans to import nor hopes of the title ever coming to the US of A, one kind soul has uploaded at least two of the endings to Tatsunoko vs. Capcom to YouTube. So, spoilers, obviously. Well, kind of. Here's Roll's. And here's MegaMan Volnutt's. ...I...

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...

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...

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...
