16-Bit Gems Looks at Mega Man: The Wily Wars

Over on GameTrailers, ClanOfTheGrayWolf has produced what could be seen as a rather timely and topical video. With the common perception of Mega Man Universe being a sort of “Mega Man 2 Powered Up” (to which Capcom would seem to rather us wait before making such judgments), it seems like a good time to turn […]

Get Equipped with Icing

A common joke used by some to make fun of video game blog Kotaku is to make fun of their former tendency to frequently post video game cakes of all shapes and sizes. And on occasion, Heat Man has suggested in jest that maybe that’s the direction this site will take.* Well, I am here […]

UPDATE: Mega Man Universe Details from PAX

Update: It appears we’ve had a bit of a mixup. The character designs are not done by Masafumi Kimoto. Instead, they are done by Takenori Kimoto. The rep on the show floor remembered the “Kimoto” part, but couldn’t remember the artist’s first name. As mentioned earlier, both Gelg and myself were able to attend this […]
