It’s kind of a slow news day today, but then, it’s Memorial Day, so what do you expect? To that end, it might interest some of you to know that during the intervening slowness of today’s video game news, Kotaku has apparently developed a serious– er, “passion” for all beings mechanical, and seem to be […]

Robot Hall of Fame Update

It’s amazing what a little publicity can do. After we reported on Mega Man’s nomination to be inducted into the Robot Hall of Fame, the story was picked up by Protodude’s Rockman Corner, Capcom*Unity, and more, and in the process, it would seem that the Blue Bomber has garnered quite a bit of support. Whereas […]

Yo, Proto (Man)!

Remember the G.I. Joe/Mega Man crossover figure we reported on last week? Well, it appears that Jin Saotome is back at it again, and this time, he’s bringing in the Blue Bomber’s older bro to join the struggle. But will he side with a real American hero, or assist the evil terrorist organization determined to […]

Mega Man: A Real American Hero

I’ve never made any secret of the fact that I’m a big fan of TransFormers, but the thought of crossing Mega Man with them has never really crossed my mind (even with Keiji Inafune and the TransFormers essentially sharing the same birthday. However, one fan has apparently gone so far as to combine the Blue […]

Custom Mega Man from Megaland

Sometimes, when you’re a fan of something long enough, you learn to take some of the older, less-favorable stuff in stride. Such is the case with this custom figure by one Kyle Robinson, whose work I found when doing research for a separate article. Kyle took one of Jazwares’ Retro Roto Mega Man figures, and […]

Mock Man Rules the World

If any of you are/were like me, then when you were a kid, the thought of being Mega Man in real life held a certain allure. The action, the adventure, being a hero… Well, as it turns out, being Mega Man in real life would probably not be all that great, as the following video […]

Rockman 5: Wily’s Dream Space Released

Remember how back in the day Mega Man 5 used to be tough to beat, but nowadays it’s one of the easiest games to best in the franchise (unless you do some crazy No Charge Shot/Slide challenge, among others) without much effort? Always wanted one of the most favoured of the NES titles to be […]
