I think it’s fair to say that Mega Man Legends was pretty ambitious for its time. It was an all new series that departed greatly from what many people recognized as Mega Man then. It was also Mega Man’s first step into a 3D adventure, a game design that still had a lot of unexplored […]

Slow News Day Leads to Fast Gameplay
Things are just a little bit slow in Mega Man news lately, so we’ve decided to speed things up a little by featuring a video of Mega Man 10 for WiiWare being completed in less than 34 minutes: Yes, this is tool-assisted (you can find the details of that here, and no, we don’t normally […]

As reported previously, the first volume of Hitoshi Ariga’s Mega Man Gigamix is now available from UDON Entertainment. What’s more, our previous report also included a few preview pages, including one showing off a rather striking image of Break Man, the alter-ego of everyone’s favorite scarf-wearing ‘bot, Proto Man. And as we’ve seen recently, Dr. […]

This may look like just an ordinary statue of Mega Man. But this sculpture by Toni Spaziani is, in fact, made out of chocolate. That’s right, you could take a big, tasty bite out of it! Well, providing it’s not coated in some kind of special lacquer or preservative. I have no idea how people […]

Fan participation in the creative process is nothing new to Capcom, as fans have been helping design Robot Masters and NetNavis for years. But with the rise of the Mega Man Legends 3 Project and Devroom, which allows fans and users to interact with the developers and participate in the creative process for the game […]

When UDON announced the Mega Man Tribute book, every Mega Man fan artist had a stroke. Right there on the spot. Once medics were called and the artists revived, thousands got to work on their entries. UDON had over 3000 entries. Sadly, being a 300 page book, not everyone got a chance to get in. […]

Protodude has managed to track down the last Mega Man commercial aired in the United States. Thankfully, it’s not the “He’s Called the Blue Bomber… Because He’s Blue!” one. Oh, Mom… (Really, that reminds me a bit of growing up.) TMMN Staff

Click to enlarge. Some of you may have seen the above image passed around. It’s amusing, as well as interesting, in that it essentially takes what we all know of Dr. Thomas Light, and puts a unique and entertaining spin on it. Over at Destructoid, Tony Ponce has gone in the exact opposite direction, taking […]

Our final stop on our trip back through Mega Man‘s adventures into the North American mainstream comes not from the United States, but Canada, and a small comic book company once known as Dreamwave.
