Nintendo Spurns Mega Man from Brawl?
Feb 1, 2008 | Mega Man
We can now say with pretty much certainty that Mega Man's not gonna get into Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Heck, some people in the MM community probably claim they've been saying it with certainty for months now, and a good deal of us were probably somewhat pessimistic....
Great Five Islands Adventure Begins
Feb 1, 2008 | Mega Man
Cell phone savvy Rockman DASH fans in Japan now have something to be excited over, as Rockman DASH: The Great Five Islands Adventure has begun distribution on all 703i and 903i series phones. The game will be released in four installments over the next month and a...
Paper Mega Man
Jan 17, 2008 | Mega Man
News sure has been pretty slow as of late. All there's really been are wild, unfounded rumors, and then the stuff that "kind of" has to do with Mega Man. This is one of the latter. Recently in Japan, our man Keiji Inafune announced "Daletto World," a joint effort...
WilyWare, Inc.: Mega (Man) Microgames
Jan 7, 2008 | Mega Man
Another curious Rockman game heads to cell phones, and given that I'm using the name Rockman, yes, this is a Japan-only thing. Famitsu is reporting on a new cell phone Rockman game titled "Intuition! Rockman" for 904i and higher series phones. The game actually...
Mega Man not in Brawl, yet
Dec 22, 2007 | Mega Man
I think a lot of us Mega Man fans have generally been keeping our hopes down about Mega Man being in Nintendo's battle royale specatular: Super Smash Bros. Brawl. With the inclusion of Snake and Sonic, Mega Man would seem the perfect video game icon to jump in on the...
Anniversary Slumbers By; Magazine Captures Attention
Dec 22, 2007 | Mega Man
You have to admit that, while some neat events led up to the big day, Mega Man's 20th anniversary passed by with little incident, especially if you don't live in Japan. They at least got a warm message from Keiji and a look at schwag to buy. But now something has come...
Mega Man Turns 20

Mega Man 2 hits Euro VC
Dec 15, 2007 | Mega Man
Staffer Splashman tells me that Mega Man 2, perhaps the best entry in the series some would consider, is now available on the Wii's Virtual Console in Europe and Australia. This following the original Mega Man, which was released on the VC some months ago. Of course...
The Final Countdown
Dec 12, 2007 | Community Developments, Mega Man, Site Developments
Last year Capcom of Japan made a count down timer for Rockman's 20th anniversary. As you may have noticed, we've added this timer to our front page. Now sure, it may be a little disingenuous to put up a year-long counter when it only has a few days left. But honestly,...
You Know You Want This: Capcom’s Exclusive Mega Man Art Giveaway
Dec 6, 2007 | Mega Man
What better way for Capcom to promote their swinging new upcoming title, Bionic Commando, than with... Mega Man art?! It's strange and it's true, as the Capcom US blog (aka Capcom*Unity, the best thing they've done with the site since they set foot online) has...

Rockman’s Coming of Age Party

Want a new Mega Man series? Make more fan-music. The little guy hardly looks like he's going on 20. This past weekend held the Rockman 20th anniversary event in Tokyo, Japan. The event was seemingly met with a large reception, as people hustled in to play a variety of...
