Tomorrow marks a day of special significance… That’s right, tomorrow marks the first anniversary of the release of Mega Man 9 on WiiWare, which was followed shortly thereafter by releases on Xbox LIVE Arcade and the PlayStation Network, respectively. Now normally, we admit that we would probably not bother observing such a date; take into […]

As many of you are no doubt already aware, it seems that one of Konami’s worst-kept secrets of late is their plan to bring a new Castlevania title to WiiWare. The ESRB posted the info before Konami was able to make an announcement (and, as of this writing, they have still yet to say anything), […]

Recently, Nintendo has updated the Wii’s “Nintendo Channel” with a new layout and new features. One such feature is the ability to make recommendations for DS titles. However, there are two small problems here, where a site such as ours is concerned. The first is that so far, we have not been able to find […]

Back in July, we posted about a Mega Man 9 Remix Project started by the Overclocked ReMix Community. Finally, more news has been released on the album! First off, the most recent track submission date of September 1st (aka today) was “a success”. Secondly, a new teaser is available for download to get all the […]

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 […]

I don’t really know who Lady Gaga is– her name sounds like a broken transmission in Bionic Commando to me. But apparently, she’s a musician of some kind whose presence has managed to permeate the mainstream to a significant degree. At least, that’s the gist I get from Capcom*Unity’s “For the 0.3% of the population […]

A question and answer panel with Capcom happened at this year’s Comic Con. A young lad spoke for all of us when he asked, “What’s next for Mega Man?” Though Capcom originally tried to direct the child’s attention to Mega Man Star Force 3, Seth Killian decided to step up to the plate when it […]

Has the final Mega Man 9 secret been discovered? Probably not, but this is a pretty neat Easter Egg nonetheless. First, observe the following screenshot from Mega Man 9. Take note of the circled area: Next, check out this screen from the opening of Mega Man 4, which details the origin of the Blue Bomber: […]

For the second year running, we are proud to announce that the second “OtaRockman” Mega Man panel at Otakon, held at 12:45pm on Saturday, July 18th, was a success. This was thanks in part to the Otakon staff moving us to a larger room than the workshop room we filled at the last minute in […]

It should be no surprise that Capcom’s Seth Killian is keeping quiet on MM9’s “secret.” There’s no reason to even keep posting about it. But I am, just to keep the issue fresh in all of your minds and make you angry. As long as this has gone on, I’m really beginning to speculate what […]

No, not brother-band! Though I, personally, enjoyed the unexpected random-genre toting antics of Capcom’s official Mega Man 9 Arrange Album, it wasn’t met with praise by everyone. Have no fear! Within the Overclocked Remix community, a member named “k-wix” took it upon himself to get the ball rolling on a fan-made remix project of the […]

Here it is, Mega Fans: The ultimate souvenir. Just about any diehard Mega Man fan would give their eye teeth for one of Capcom’s Mega Man 9 faux-NES press kits, and the same goes for an autograph of Mega Man creator Keiji Inafune (provided one doesn’t have either). But what would one do to have […]
