Since Heat Man decided to take us on a trip back in time with the commercials for the original Rockman games in Japan, I did want to say (as I often do whenever the opportunity affords itself) that there is a single Mega Man advertisement which I think did a very good, if not excellent […]

I think we missed this one while getting everything moved over to our new host here, but for those interested, Eddie Lebron, who is directing his own Mega Man fan film, recently held a Q&A session with video game blogsite Destructoid. There, he explains everything from his funding to Capcom’s reaction to the project, and […]

Dramatic death scenes aren’t limited to just Zero and Iris in X4. Check out this Rockman 9 parody of the scene, with Blues mourning the loss of Splash Woman. I have to say, I’m impressed by the quality of the art here. The video maker got the classic Rockman style down perfectly. News Credit: Protodude’s […]

It’s always nice to see the gaming media give praise to the people who work very hard behind the scenes on games.  Gametrailers has recently put up their top 10 game creators and the creator of Mega Man/Rockman comes in at number 9.

Remember when George Lucas decided to gussy up all those old Star Wars movies with modern day polish, special effects, and new footage, effectively ruining them in the eyes of many fans? Well, this isn’t quite as bad as all that, namely because the anime cutscenes in Mega Man X4 have nowhere to go but […]

UNIQLO, a Japanese T-Shirt designer, is now teasing a partnership with game companies including Capcom, SEGA, Sony, Taito, Hudson, and Bandai Namco in order to bring the world some pretty interesting game T-Shirts. I’ll let you figure out who’s who.  The new shirts will be featured as of March 2009. Link: UTxJAPAN GAME LanceHeartlocalhost/tmmn

Anyone who knows of Lucky Star also knows of the tons of remixes that have ended up on Nico Nico Douga and subsequently Youtube.  While some are basically remixes that overlap songs, a few stand out and are copied ad nauseam with other characters.  Here’s my latest finds based on the Lucky Star version of […]

We have a new Rockman boss contest coming up soon, and I feel like wagering on what I think it’ll be. Granted, I’m not crazy about making predicitions, partly because I don’t like being wrong. On top of that, information of the boss contest will surface any day now – it might even come up […]

This one’s a little more all-purpose gaming, but I wanted to share nonetheless. Apparently, Melodie here is a really fast learner, and so her parents have taken advantage of this to get her started on the road to gaming by creating a set of flash cards which each depict a different gaming character (including our […]

Tired of that same old tired holiday music? Aren’t we all. Heat was actually just mentioning a radio station he was listening to wouldn’t stop playing the Dradel Song last night… Here to liven up the holiday spirit is the joy that keeps on giving: 8-bit music. Of the 18 tracks to make the list, […]

Now if only we could find the answer to making the sequels we want, like X9 and Legends 3. Mega Man 9 was a fluke. Source: Dueling Analogs :: Acquired Learning TMMN Staff

Indeed they do. Ok, I’m jumping the proverbial December 17th gun a little bit, but technically it’s already the 17th in the East. That’s right, our beloved Mega Man / Rockman has turned 21. Mega Man’s 20th year came with some big surprises, with Mega Man 9’s true return to the classic roots, and Ryuusei […]
