As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Mega Man series. This time, I’m reviewing Mega Man V, which perfected much of the groundwork laid down by its predecessor while also breaking new ground in a variety of areas. Mega Man V is my […]

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Mega Man series. This time, I’m looking at Mega Man IV, one of the best games of not just the Game Boy sub-series, but of the entire Mega Man series. Regulars to The Mega Man […]

Last week, Capcom Unity continued their tradition of monthly Mega Man streams with Mega Man V for Game Boy. Unfortunately, the stream didn’t work out well due to technical issues. But Mega Man V is one of the most unique entries into the series, and we think it’s story still needs to be told. So […]

At 3 o’clock PM PST/6pm EST, Capcom Unity is holding a livestream of one of the most elusive jewels of the Classic Mega Man series, Mega Man V for the Game Boy. The game has yet to be re-released, as plans for Mega Man Anniversary Collection (nee Mania) for the Game Boy Advance was axed, […]

As part of our celebration of the Mega Man series hitting its 25th anniversary, we are featuring a look back at many of the games of the Mega Man series. This time, I’m examining the first installment of the Game Boy sub-series, Mega Man: Dr. Wily’s Revenge, a short but tough monochrome romp. Capcom and the […]

The Game Boy Mega Man games have some of my favorite music in the series, though in truth the tunes are often overlooked by fans and musicians. So thank goodness that Blues ‘Chaos’ Light has cooked up his own arranged EP, featuring a track from each game. You can listen to the songs above, or […]

Previously, I covered the concepts that made the Mega Man Classic series fun. This week, I narrow down the one pivotal game that changed that series and set it on a new direction. While Mega Man 2 introduced and refined a few overarching concepts that became series staples, it was Mega Man IV for the Game Boy […]

If you tune in to your 3DS’s eShop updates today, you’ll find something a little Mega Man themed. According to a Nintendo press release, Mega Man: Dr. Wily’s Revenge will be hitting the download shop today for $3.99. It also will be arriving in Europe as well, as we previously reported. Dr. Wily’s Revenge is […]

Okay, everyone, you can relax: Capcom isn’t saddling us with a new, younger version of Mega Man that feels cribbed from Jim Henson’s Muppet Babies (he’s already 10, and they already gave us Powered Up, if the idea needed to be driven home). Rather, one fan has taken one of the greatest video game systems […]

It’s been six months of the Megacast, can you believe it? Half a year! They said it wouldn’t last. I said it wouldn’t last! But here we are. In this very serendipitous episode, the Megacast crew (sans Andy) welcome special guest, UDON Entertainment’s managing editor, Matt Moylan. Matt gives us the lowdown about various upcoming […]

I consider it to be a great shame that we never ended up getting Mega Man Mania. And although the Mega Man Anniversary Collection had its flaws, it still showed the bevvy of interest remaining in classic Mega Man, even though it would still be years before we got legitimate advancement in the series. While […]

“Who are the Mega Man Killers?” That is a question that no doubt some people are asking upon seeing the bosses for the three downloadable (semantics aside) Special Stages Capcom is releasing across all platforms for Mega Man 10. Odds are, as a fan, you might know who they are in passing; you’ve seen people […]
