Now here’s an interesting blast from the past: Video Arcade, the television show hosted by one “Johnny Arcade.” It began as a video game tips and previews/reviews show which would bookend a Captain N-esque cartoon starring various characters from Acclaim-published NES games, The Power Team. But in following seasons, the format changed, and the show […]

Sorry I didn’t update about this sooner, folks; the 500 Internal Server Errors have been most prohibitive in getting anything done. Nonetheless, the second Mega Man Marathon we mentioned previously is going on as we speak (they appear to be on Mega Man X at Launch Octopus as I type this). Check it out below, […]

It seems that performing video game music in a cappella is growing in popularity online, and of course, the catchy tunes of Mega Man are no exception. During work yesterday, a friend passed along an interesting little sound file of someone performing the Dr. Wily Stage 1 (and 2, technically) stage music in this vocal […]

This fine piece of mega-medieval craftsmanship comes to us from Chainmailbasket.com, and is comprised of 63,608 rings of 14 different types. “After one and a half years, the Megaman II Project is finally finished. The dimensions are 38″ x 45″, as it hangs on the wall, and its total weight is over 16 pounds.” Quite […]

Back in July, we posted about a Mega Man 9 Remix Project started by the Overclocked ReMix Community. Finally, more news has been released on the album! First off, the most recent track submission date of September 1st (aka today) was “a success”. Secondly, a new teaser is available for download to get all the […]

Remember the recently-held Mega Man Marathon, which went on to raise $7173.06 for Earthday.net? Wasn’t that just awesome? Well, the holiday season is coming (or close enough, anyway– Christmas Creep, anyone?), and now the guys behind that marathon are at it once again, this time to support another worthy cause: Child’s Play. The marathon begins […]

The Capcom*Unity is just as surprised as we are, not that someone decided to rank their top 10 franchises– it happens all the time– but that the source of said ranking was ABC News in Sacramento. So, who did they pick? Let’s see: ABC News 10 Top Ten Capcom Franchises 10. Onimusha 9. Ghouls ‘N’ […]

It’s no small secret that music is considered a very significant part of the Mega Man games. After all, the Blue Bomber himself and his sister were originally named for Rock and Roll, only to be later joined by Blues, Beat, Tango, and others. And then with the X series, the whole thing kind of […]

Pretty straight forward post title, right? OK, guys. Here’s the deal: Remember Mega Ran? The guy combining Mega Man and hip-hop flawlessly? He needs our help with something that could be beneficial to video game music on a grand scale. He’s trying to get on a panel at the SXSW (South by Southwest) festival, which […]

The SpeedGamers’ recent Mega Man Marathon would appear to have been a complete success for the group. They sought to raise $7,000 to support Earthday.net, and not only met the goal, but surpassed it with a grand total of $7,011.01 from 262 contributors. …wait, one cent? Okay, who’s the wise guy who donated one cent? […]

Deviant Artist Orioto, who has become well known for what people describe as “HD artwork” depicting classic gaming scenes through highly-detailed pieces of art not unlike what one would expect a remake to look like, has recently released another piece featuring the Blue Bomber. While the earlier piece depicts a much more official art-styled Mega […]

Sorry, folks; just got off work a short time ago, and the Mega Man marathon for charity we reported a few days ago has already begun. As of this writing, they’re on Mega Man 3, and you can follow on the live stream here: Live TV by Ustream And I see they’re using our picture […]
