“Energize Your Excitement.” “Mega Man 3. Anything else you need to know?” “Help Mega Man turn Proto Man into spare parts.” These were just some of the slogans which Capcom used in the magazine ads for their games way back in the day, for title such as Mega Man, Mega Man 3, and Mega Man […]

10 Years of SEGA Dreamcast: 9/9/99 – 9/9/09

As many of you are no doubt already aware, today marks the tenth anniversary of the North American launch of the Dreamcast, SEGA’s final (and some might even say greatest) console. Without any proper Mega Man titles on the platform among Capcom’s considerable list of games (for the system’s short lifespan), one might think there […]

Nobody Puts Keiji in the Corner!

I saw this on the Capcom*Unity forums a couple of weeks ago, and didn’t really think much of it; it seemed like the same ol’, same ol’ to me. But since it seems to be picking up and spreading, I figured I might as well share it with you all. User “John Rambo” put the […]
