“Anything Else You Need to Know?”

“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 […]

Mega Man 3 Has the Power… Video Power

Now here’s an interesting blast from the past: Video Arcade, the television show hosted by one “Johnny Arcade.” It began as a video game tips and previews/reviews show which would bookend a Captain N-esque cartoon starring various characters from Acclaim-published NES games, The Power Team. But in following seasons, the format changed, and the show […]

The Music of Mega Man: Ranked for Your Pleasure

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 […]

MMN Antarctic Megapaluza Special 6 – Mega Man and Bass Cold Man

Is it cold in here, or is it just me? The answer? Neither; it’s that repurposed refrigerator, Cold Man, up to his icy tricks. Fortunately, we have our resident game master, Ryudo, here to put him in his place. And to do so, he’s partnering up with the Blue Bomber once again, leaving bad boy […]

Orioto Revisits Mega Man in the Crystal Catacomb

Deviant Artist Orioto, who has become well known for what people describe as “HD artwork” depicting classic gaming scenes through highly-detailed pieces of art not unlike what one would expect a remake to look like, has recently released another piece featuring the Blue Bomber. While the earlier piece depicts a much more official art-styled Mega […]

Dr. Wily’s New Clothes

We’ve seen some pretty cool action figures and models over time here at The Mega Man Network, and today adds three more to the mix. While they look like they would fit in right at home with Jin Saotome’s repurposed G.I. Joe customs, today’s batch instead come from custom toy artist Donald “KodyKoala” Kennedy (who […]

Ten Great Bosses of the Classic Series

There’s no denying it; Dr. Wily has been at it for quite some time now. And in that time, he’s amassed quite the army of robotic rogues with which he’s tried time and again to conquer the world. But, who are the best? Well, that’s a question that will be debated long after we’ve shuffled […]

Mega Man Papered Up

Papercraft is awesome; this is an indisputable scientific fact. Dr. Cossack wanted to be a renegade, and tried to disprove it. Now look at him. And now, in the late doctor’s absence, a new papercraft featuring the Powered Up version of the Blue Bomber, as seen at right, has surfaced thanks to DIL at the […]

Gaga Man 9 Wily Machine Music

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 […]

Rockman 3: The Early Years

We’ve heard Mega Man creator discuss how Mega Man 3 is one of his least-favorite games in the series, due mainly to the team’s inability to do everything with it that they had hoped before the product had to ship. Nonetheless, development of the title still saw some interesting changes from its early stages to […]
