A few months ago, we brought you word of a new fan-run event to celebrate Mega Man in Tokyo, Japan, called “Mega Rock Fan Festa.” Some new information has come up about the event, including the attendance of Hitoshi Ariga, Ippo Yamada, and Yoshihiro Iwamoto. LanceHeartlocalhost/tmmn

Last year we informed you about Rock Party, which is actually taking place tomorrow in Japan time. Really wish I could go! But making a day trip to Tokyo is neither cheap nor easy. Hopefully we’ll see some good coverage coming out of it. But that aside, there is already a new Blue Bomber celebration […]

Here’s a scene from the Rockman 20th anniversary event Capcom held in Tokyo five years ago. I think it’s safe to say right now that Capcom of Japan is probably not planning such an event for the 25th anniversary (although fans are, at least). The event was a veritable Mega Man museum, containing playable classics, […]

Mega Man Legends enthusiasts cease to let up, and have been continuing the work of the Mega Man Legends 3 Devroom, if at least to keep up the spirit. You may recall the original Neo Devroom contest to design a weapon, and it wrapped up with big results. For this next contest, the aims are […]

Fans of Rockman are gearing up for a mega event marking the Blue Bomber’s 25th anniversary. This time the shindig is Rock Party: an all Rockman, only Rockman doujin convention. Right now Rock Party has a pre-site open, and they plan to begin adding event details later this month. The event itself, however, won’t be […]

The results of the latest Mega Man Legends 3 Devroom event have been announced, and the winning concept for the Bright Bats’ mascot character goes to the little ferret Tinker by Devroom member Espiownage (Servbot #1061). Congratulations, Espiownage! Quite an accomplishment being picked from over 450 entries from Japan and the west. He seems like […]

This contest saw a bit of a delay due to the Devroom’s downtime, but with things back in gear the winners have been announced! And in fact, a total of seven winning entries were selected. I had no idea it would be that many! From doing things like bouncing from shop awnings, playing with inflatable […]

Kotobukiya is prepping another Rockman themed in-store event, the Spring Rock 2011 exhibition, on April 29th. They’ll be selling the usual assort of Rockman model kits and goods, including a limited supply of Mega Man branded kits and badges, for whatever strange reason. I think the big pull, however, will be a display of the […]

Capcom of Japan had been intending to hold the Nintendo 3DS x Capcom Premiere Experience event in Akihabara next week, where players would get their first hands on experience for games like Biohazard Revelations and, of course, Rockman DASH 3. After the terrible Touhoku earthquake, however, many companies began canceling events, and the fate of […]

Your next mission in the Mega Man Legends 3 Devroom is to take on the job of PR. The devs want some spiffy and clever (but realistic) ideas for promoting Mega Man Legends 3. Here you can see I’ve tossed up a concept… Not real imaginative but it was just off the top of my […]

Just to remind you all, you’d better finish up your Easter eggs for the latest Mega Man Legends 3 Devroom event soon. Be sure to have them nicely colored, and that they don’t break. Oh wait, that’s not the kind of Easter egg they mean. Now I have to start over! Awful jokes aside, the […]

So hey, you know that whole ASIAGRAPH event in Japan, right? Yeah, me neither. But it seems this celebration of digital art and culture has selected Rockman (Mega Man) as its theme for this year’s event, and this is a big enough deal that Capcom of Japan issued a press release over the matter: This […]
