The classic 8-bit opening sequences of the Mega Man games for the Nintendo Entertainment System are some of the most memorable in video games, especially among fans. Who doesn’t get a little excited when they recognize the music which plays as the camera pans up what appears to be the largest tower in the city, […]

Over on GameSpite.net, the second issue of GameSpite Quarterly features the staff counting down their favorite games, those which “have made lasting impressions on their gentle souls.” Naturally, there has to be at least one Mega Man game on there, and surely enough, there is. Philip Armstrong takes up the task about writing about Mega […]

Once upon a time, almost a year ago (and before we widely employed the use of tags, apparently), we brought you a video which showed what would happen if Dr. Wily were to wise up and send all of his Mega Man 2 Robot Masters after Mega Man at once. Unfortunately for Wily, it still […]

Remember that cool stop-motion Mega Man 9 “Rockin in Paper” video we brought you a while back? Well, it seems that someone else had a similar idea about a year ago. “Evil88” produced this video, which was recently posted to GameTrailers, earning the site’s honor of “User Video of the Week.” And now, we’re presenting […]

We’ve seen Jin Saotome’s previous efforts to create an action figure of Robot Master Air Man with a real working fan before, and the results? Not bad. Now, he’s at it again with a new working figure that is to scale with his custom G.I. Joe/Mega Man figures, and it too has a working motor, […]

Running on nearly 22 years now, there are a lot of Mega Man games out there. A lot are good, some are legendary, and some just kind of stink. However, there is an unwritten rule, so to speak, that Mega Man gets better the second time around. The most obvious of these examples is Mega […]

As I’ve mentioned before, Game Center CX is one of my favorite television shows about games. Starring Shin’ya Arino, a Japanese comedic personality, who does various game related segments such as talking to game developers and visiting game centers. But the most popular segment, which became the focus of the show, is Arino’s Challenge, which […]

We’ve done our fair share of gushing over custom Rockman model kits in this space, and we aren’t about to stop now. Let’s face it, for a reasonable price, there is a lot of this stuff that almost any of us would buy if given the right opportunity. And as Auto has revealed to us, […]

You have to admit, as cheesy as they were, old videogame shows from the 80s and 90s were way cool. It’s a shame that today gaming is much too “sophisticated” for stuff like that (unless you live in Japan, where you have the awesome Game Center CX). One such show from the 90s that I […]

“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 […]

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 […]

Mega Man, a franchise that’s been running for more than 20 years, has its roots in simplistic, arcade style action gameplay. And yet there are many young Mega Man fans today that may have not had a taste of this kind of gameplay. They may hear the praise for Mega Man 9 and not understand […]
